Pity; doesn't seem to "regen" anything, then, does it? Well, 'cept
heat. What a waste.
Though the traction motors are generating, I probably wouldn't use
the term 'regenerative' unless the power were being stored,
or at least used for something. As implemented, it's merely
electric braking. However, D-E locomotives have been around
awhile, they got there first so I suppose that whatever terminology
they've been using is now, by definition, the correct one.
