" Test trains were 14 cars in length"
So these are headed to the Milton Line I assume?
I wouldnt read anything into the train size. These were performance tests, intended to kick the tires a little. The additional tonnage will help show what the loco is capable of. It may be spec'd for 14 car trains as a 'maybe, someday' exercise, with no immediate plans for that.
