These engines were designed to pull a passenger train up these mountains at speed and make up any lost time on flat land. It set in a city park for decades then rebuilt for a cost, I think of about a million dollars. It is capable of pulling a passenger train at 110 mph but I don't think they pull at much over 40 mph. Much higher speeds than that would be like running through the Cody Wy museum.
