Well, it's a simple matter of comparing speeds running alone at
Tona and Dega, and running in the draft.  I typically can do 185
(on a good day-no subzero temp settings!) by myself, but can
approach 200 in a draft train.  In real life the WC cars are about
where I am alone, but only gain about 5-8 MPH in the draft...
