Anyone used these to power a loco?

Kevin, I was wondering the same things... enough power to pull a twenty car train, and how noisy. On the noise issue, seems they would be pretty quiet. No external drive shafts and univesal joints and such. On the surface, it seems like a great idea. But the motor in there must be pretty tiny, which leads to the "how much power" question.

Still, I am salivating at the prospect of having tons of room in a CF7 shell!
