GP-7s? I could go with a pair of dynamo brake equipped Zebra-striped Santa Fe machines or a red and black Rock Island machine or two.

OK, now there is a new one!  Just what is "dynamo brake equipped"?

Kind of like Fred Flinstone - engineer sticks both legs out of the cab and plants them against the ground.

Dynamo braking occurs when an I phone thinks it spells better than you do.

The Atlas GP7/9   had either/or available.  Note the center hood in the plastic bag, lower right.  The dynamic brake blister, hood center, was a way of dissipating heat, when the traction motors were used in a braking mode. Braking energy (heat) has to be dissipated in some manner.    Minor error   

Interesting to note that my Prius has regenerative braking. Brake energy is put back in the battery, until the battery is full.  51 miles per gallon all the time.
