Your opinion on cab sway?

[GERUNIMO625]

The short answer is no it can't do all of that. But I can tell you from experience some locomotives are pretty rough riding and having some degree of wobble and jolting when going over frogs at higher speeds would add a lot.

CSXs engines with steerable trucks "feel" like you're floating and it can make for a pretty sea sick experience.

Geeps of any kind are pretty bouncy over joints, frogs, soft spots, like an overdampened car.

SD40-2s on HTCs are pretty smooth overall, but will jolt over frogs, and as they wear out, they make some pretty awful noises.

I agree, that is all true.
Although I think SD70ACe's with the isolated cabs are the worst! You rock and roll are over the place! Better not have an open cup of coffee out, or it'll be in your lap before too long.

Take care

Not only do you get the roll, but you get the constant bouncing and squeak from the crappy cab suspension!!
