Did you all see the Power Pulling Contest on ESPN this morning? There was a Power Puller powered by 2 Allison engines competing with a big block chevy.

The best pull I ever saw was by a tractor using an Allison 250C-17 turbine from a Jet Ranger. The thing just went hiiiiiissssssssss and kept on pulling and pulling and pulling....


The conductor had to jump on the brakes to make the rig stop!
