Can You Tow A Railroad Train With A Ford Electric F-150 Pickup?

Well, apparently you can tow *part* of one at least. I'd like to know what kind of tires and tow strap those are. One thing about electric motors is that they can develop a helluva lot of torque.

They do tell you not to try this at home though.

Always wanted to know what the gear ratio is when they do this sort of thing. Thinking you can do most anything with the proper gearing.
