In this video, I see if I can get this very large Dorman Perkins Diesel engine fitted to a genset in this railway carriage container running. I understand some of these style of engines were retrofitted as truck engines (smaller and earlier than this one) and in other vehicles but they made their name in marine and power supply generator engine applications, particularly in army or military applications in ww2 and after. I believe that at some stage, General Electric took them over and Perkins Diesel later bought out the Dorman aspect hence the reason this engine is classed as a Perkins in the original paperwork. Thanks for watching! Bruce
