Jeder der beiden Fahrdiesel hat 104,3 Liter Hubraum - 6,52 Liter pro Zylinder.

Unfortunately Voith delivered only a total of 20 Maximas and then retired from locomotive production so these heavy ones will remain a rare sight on tracks. It's hard to tell by what the last sovjet hulks in Germany finally will be replaced. I think it will be a mixture of electric units as there's still electrification in progress on certain lines and some new built diesels, however a lot of private operators meanwhile run british class 66 units. The most interesting new design to me currently is Stadler's latest project EuroDual railcolornews.com/category/stadler-rail/stadler-rail-eurodual/ which cobines a full size mainline electric- and diesel-locomotive. We'll see who probably can (and likes to...) afford monsters like these in the future.

I dont mean to be off topic but does someone know a trick to get back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me

@Vivaan Westin Instablaster ;)

@Uriel Jadiel thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process now. Takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

@Uriel Jadiel It worked and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thank you so much you really help me out !

Es sieht leider schlecht aus. Die Lok steht defekt und mit Fristablauf bei Bombardier in Kassel. Sie ist nicht öffentlich zugänglich, eine Aufarbeitung ist derzeit nicht geplant.

@@Dokker62 Das ist wirklich Schade, sie hätte es verdient wieder auf die Schiene zu dürfen...

No, ABC stands for Anglo Belgian Corporation from Gent: www.abc-engines.com/

Unter Last wird es naturgemäß eher noch lauter. Ich habe das aber nicht als störend empfunden. Es ist ja nur das Geräusch der Hydraulik. Die Lüfter selbst sind durch ihre aerodynamisch optimierten Blätter kaum zu hören.

@@Dokker62 Genau dieses Geräusch der Hydraulik liebe ich an der Maxima.

Da ist alles in Ordnung. Die Dinger laufen so. Mag sein, dass der Klang durch die Kamerabewegung unterschiedlich wirkt. Der Motor war zum Zeitpunkt der Aufnahme kaum vier Monate alt.

No, it's her sister "Olympic". "Titanic" sunk already...

this sounds like a diesel engine. but 100years earlier there was no diesel ship.

Luckily this "vessel" was built in 1962...

Keineswegs. Lokführer haben ihr Essen zu allen Zeiten so oder ähnlich erwärmt, lange bevor LKW-Kutscher die Straßen verstopften.

Wäre interessant zu erfahren, ob du Klassenkasper überhaupt von irgendetwas Ahnung hast. Motoren und Maschinen gehören jedenfalls nicht dazu. Rechtschreibung übrigens auch nicht.

It's a V 16.

Generally yes. They are similarly spec'd with fast running engines and hydraulic transmissions also west-german Bundesbahn chose for their mainline diesels from the early 1950s onwards: BRs Westerns use twelve-cylinder Maybach-Diesels MD 655 and Voith-Gearboxes L 630 rU, basically also to be found in several german Classes and Railcars. Wiebes V 320 001 is fitted with sixteen-cylinder prime-movers Mercedes-Benz MB 839 Bb and Voith L 218 rs-Transes. These equipment also powers german Class 216-Locos and the engines partially also 216s relatives 215 and 217.

Das Roco Model ist eine Augenweide und macht was her!

Speedwagon1983 Die klassischen Bundesbahn-Motoren springen eigentlich immer sofort an. Aber die Bahn AG unserer Tage vermurkst ja fast alles, so auch per se zuverlässige Maschinen.

William Roberts Check e. g. kzbin.info/www/bejne/opfKf6anbtuaebs where she is even more engaged.

Thank you!

William Roberts My pleasure!

If i'm not mistaking she has Maybach engines not MTU.... please correct me if i'm wrong.

+TheNecromancer6666 The MB 839-Series origninally was designed in the 1950s by Mercedes-Benz-Dieselmotorenbau GmbH/Stuttgart ("MB") which bought up it's competitor Maybach-Motorenbau GmbH ("MD"), located at Friedrichshafen near Lake Constance, in 1966 to create a new company called Maybach-Mercedes-Benz-Motorenbau GmbH ("MMB"). In 1969 this Firm after all merged with the Product-Division for midsize-Diesel-engines of Maschinenfabrik Augsburg-Nürnberg AG ("MAN") at Augsburg and formed the final group Motoren und Turbinenunion ("MTU"). All types of engines, including the MB 839s, since then are built at former Maybach-Facilltiy/Friedrichshafen. Later on MTU was purchased by external investors, renamed into Tognum AG in 2006, and today trades under the name Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG. The production of MB 839-engines endet in 2009. The two power-plants, currently installed in V 320 001, were made in 1969 and 1970.

Thank you! I checked your YT-channel and enjoyed the impressive swedish made MZ 1416 with a timber train hooked up as I always liked these powerful big NOHAB-beasts.

Ehrlicherweise hätte man diesen Leerpark durchaus auch mit einer 216, 218 o. ä. bespannen können. Ich meine mich zu erinnern, dass der Zug etwa 800 t wog. Für die V 320 war es jedenfalls keine nennenswerte Last.

They didnt because they wouldnt fit in those tight track clearances.

what type of Voith getriebe is installed on this Loco? L620 or L306?

There are two Voith L 218 rv-transmissions installed in V 320 001, the same type used in Prototype-V 160s (216 001 - 216 010) and predecessor of L 821 rs that works in V 160 production version (216 011 - 216 224). Maximum power input is 1770 hp for L 218s or 1820 hp for L 821s.

Dokker62 can you do a startup of one of those freight trains?😐🚅🚧⚠🚥
