a train.
the begining of the track is 100 feet straight up.
the track curves to a level section that is 10 miles long.
the train is 9 miles long.
each car is 100 ft long.
each car weighs 100,000 pounds.

at the 100 ft tall section of track there
are (10) 100,000 pound cars that are pushing down
with a force of 1,000,000 pounds.

the remainder of the 9 mile long train is level to
the ground.

rolling friction steel against steel is .003

will the train move?
