Pusher vs. helper

[NW Mailing List]

Never heard the front engine on those three-engine trains referred to by any other name as “doubleheader”.
The second engine, the A, was the one that went through.

So the engines on the front going up Blue Ridge were pushers like the ones on the rear end? I'm confused.
