Just calculated the bhp of the turbine at work (bored)

925 million bhp

That would be nice, bit heavy though.

Oops, meant 1.8 million bhp for the two steam turbines, and 0.9 for 1, sorry forgot the factor was in kW not W, must have been half asleep

The reactors put out 1600 MW each and the turbines put out 680 MW each.

We do have 4 V16 twin turbo 10,000 bhp and 4 V12 8000 bhp marine diesels as emergency generators.

1.8 million BHP?

You'd need some decent traction control and tyres for that baby
