Thanks Lee, hopefully I didn't get you up too early this AM. I guess it
makes sense to keep the auxiliaries in the A unit. However, another
question arises---since the B unit was really the prime mover, did the B
unit supply any electrical connections to power the A unit's traction
motors?
Since we were talking about smoke units in diesels a few days ago,
putting out some heavy black smoke from a turbine would be fine with me
for a second or two!

Bob,
The air compressor on the turbines was driven by the CB diesel engine.
With ought the diesel engine running, there was no air for the
brakes. Need I say more?
