most all are pulled, has to be that way for a reason.
	initial traction
	cars follow inline when pulled
	a pushing vector can cause force to the side of tracks

one is a man must be located to see out in front of the train to see if 
tracks are clear.  which indicates pulling.


They eliminated the requirement for a man at the back end, in the 
caboose, and eliminated the caboose.
