Crazy Cold Start Diesel Locomotive Engines and Sound I ALCO LOCO

[@franmitch3589]

You know it's a big 'un when it requires a gas pony motor to start the primary diesel engine

[@jpsholland]

Hell no, a locomotive like this ones fit inside a Wartsila Sulzer ship engine, and they get started with compressed air.

[@jaybarber68]

My John Deere Model R tractor and Dads D7 Cat both have pony motors to start their main engines.

The good old Alco RS3 is one of my favorite diesel road engines to ever hit the rails despite their mechanical flaws.

Alco S2 and S4 could be told apart by the Blount trucks under the S2 and road trucks under the S4, which was the only real difference. Bell position was at the request of the purchaser, and was mounted under the car body on most B&O models.

Adrian Morris mate these locomotives are older than the concept of reducing emissions and are all rather rare. Newer locomotives have much cleaner emissions.

ALCOs disappeared mostly because they smoked too much. Some, the PAs & FAs, smoked as much as steam locos.

[@blackbirdgaming8147]

Ernest Imken They smoked because of turbo lag and improper maintenance.

[@Romans--bo7br]

Ernest Imken.... that is completely False. 1) Alco waited too long to get into the Diesel locomotive "race". 2) Alco's 244 prime mover had too many "issue's" due to being "rushed" into production, trying to make up for lost time. 3) Alco's follow-up 251 engine was much better, however... Alco relied on GE for all their electrical components, and without going into the myriad of details and time frames... in a "nutshell", GE stabbed Alco in the back. All in all... between the WPB (War Production Board) stepping in, in 1942 with their production limitations, and just overall... bad timing, some poor decisions, GE's "cut throating" tactics.. beginning with their under-selling of Alco's export business, which Alco heavily relied on... especially to India, etc,etc,etc... they were "doomed".

As a car mechanic and petrolhead I can enjoy the roar of a heavy diesel the howl of the turbo and the smell of oil and smoke but!! This inefficient piece of technology has had its day. As an answer to the steam engine, after 100 years of innovation, it is still a spilling machine. The 37% efficiency for diesel engines is an insult and should stop tomorrow. Not just for trains but all petrol and Diesel engines. The environment is not helped by this. Build nuclear power plants and go electric or hydrogen
