When I worked for Union Pacific we calculated total towed weight cars and Freight 6800tons 198mi on 500ga for each of 5 4400hp locomotives over Cascade summit .
2500÷198=12.62gal/mi÷6800=538.82 mpgt counting the 1010tons of power=618.86mpgt going up one of the worst grades on the systom
I had to run the numbers my self when I saw the commercial as i thought they were selling ocean beach condos in Denver, Colorado.
