These are great pullers. And do well on lighter rail too.
Re: Lake State gets 2 MP-15s
Would those be used in road service too?

MP15's are designed for road service (see the Bloomberg trucks) too but I don't know if that's what LSRC will use them for

They're planning to use them only in the yard and local services around Saginaw and Bay City. This per a reliable source on a Facebook page when these were first publicized.

They don't have a john onboard and per Michigan Law I believe they must have a facility of some sort for relieving oneself and then washing up. When they stick to the yard...no probem, make a run for the shanty. On the road...hanging your bum over the handrail can be problematic at times.
