Hauling 1000 tons over a route that mostly goes uphill. This is the reverse of the classified material run: youtube.com/watch?v=hChRSEZwvhY
It's rare that you get to haul that much, usually it's around 400-500 tons. I almost get the loco to overheat and it's running at full throttle for most part of the run. While the shunter is easy to get the wheels slipping, with this one, you're pretty much safe unless you push the throttle beyond the last indent to the very end. Just keep it below 90 on the rpm gauge. Operating a train this way is also the most fuel efficient. You either want it idling or hauling as hard as possible.
Nuclear waste pays well but it's not a lot better than the classified materials considering how heavy it is (87 tons per car). They don't give you more time uphill either. 38 minutes it is. Maintenance cost is also very high. All in all, it's much more challenging but as this video shows, completely doable.
