Especially compared to Copetown. I think I only stalled once on this grade. The normal speed up the hill is around 25-30 mph with a heavy train @Aitch..the grade is not as steep as you might think.

How steep would this grade be in percentage ? Makes me wonder what speed a heavyweight train like 421 would be operating at. Nice lighting ! How steep would this grade be in percentage ?
