My buddy worked here in the Fort Wayne yard putting them together. The max number of trailers with the Mark IV trailer I think was 75, when they went to the updated trailer with the separate bogey truck they went to max of 125, then later again the limit was 150. Engineers had said they pulled more like a passenger train with not much slack. They were quiet too, I used to work alongside the East Wayne yard in the '80s, and you would barely hear the RoadRailers go by..
