[@u686st7]

That's actually kind of a dirty exhaust for an EMD, but the engineer is really pushing the throttle pretty hard. As a railfan in the US, I've been around EMDs all my life, and I never tire of the sound of a turbocharged 567, 645 or 710. What is amazing to me is that by US standards, that train is severely underpowered, 18 passenger cars here would rate at least 2 locomotives (most US passenger units are 4,000 hp), but as always EMD comes through.

[@nomon95]

YES,,,,FULL THROTTLE WHEN THE SPEED TRAIN IS APPROX 15MPH IN MY POOR COUNTRY, ARGENTINE,,LOCOS HAVE AVERAGE 2000HP NO MORE EXCEPTION GM LOCOS, WITH 2500HP,FROM1970!!!!!

[@nomon95]

i suppose that the traction force in the EMD is about 70 tons at the start and at low speed,,,decreasing with the speed,,,and surely that the EMD only (without load) may accelerate from 0 to 60mph in 30 seconds,,the power/weight ratio may be between 35 or 40 kg/hp,,,and it is enough for high accelerations,,and the engine rises quicly in rpm,,beautiful video,,i suppose is a 2 stroke engine,,the sond gives me this sensation,,,,the Alco,,,sure four strokes,,,,

[@u686st7]

Are the 2 types geared for different speeds? Most US freight locomotives are geared for about 105-110 kph, passenger units are usually at least 150 kph (for acceleration, most US main lines have a top speed of 70-79 mph/112-127 kph).

[@anshuman1114]

[@dheerajrao]

Notching up EMDs like that is what causes them to break down after a certain point of time. Experience doesn't mean jumping through notches and then sitting at Notch 8 within 300m of departure. It can be done in ALCOs but these EMDs need to be notched up steadily.

[@nomon95]

mproved version of the WDG4 EMD V16 2-Stroke Turbo Diesel GM-EMD 16-710 Rated Power Output: 4500 hp Production Period: 2010 to Present Number Produced: 85+ Wheel Arrangement: Co-Co Top (Rated) Speed: 130 kph Though classified WDP and designed to overcome the shortcomings of the WDP4, the WDP4B is actually a modified version of the WDG4 and not of the WDP4. It has 6 traction motors for all the six axles like the WDG4, has a tractive effort of 40t (385 kN) compared to the WDG4’s 55t (570kN) and the WDP4s 28t (270kN) and axle load of 20.2t slightly lesser than the WDG4’s 21t and same operational speed (130 kph) of the WDG4. The reworked EMD engine outputs 4500 hp. The WDP4B also has a much more rounded “softer” aerodynamic front-end with the cabin slightly wider than the loco body to provide bigger windows for better visibility, which also took away the fierce, menacing front-end look of the original EMD. All other specs remained the same as that of the WDG4 including all the technological goodies. However, they did not do anything about the cab design and the LHF end was unfortunately left untouched retaining its weird house-shaped look as the loco continued with one cab. The WDP4B hence was suited for hauling longer trains at somewhat higher speed than the WDP4. WDP4D

There’s a reason why the EMDs faster. It’s because it spools up faster, therefore generating more voltage/amps to the traction motors.

[@KuntalGhosh]

Emd is much newer loco , it has ac driven motors .. & full electronic motor driver.. so it doesn't even matter how long it takes for the generator to make power. The computers can measure and adjust phase & voltage precisely to put the required amount of power in few seconds to the motors without making them spin or over loading.

This annoys me greatly, however, the inevitable march of time and technology and so on. Besides, the EMD locomotives are much more efficient, and significantly more powerful.

[@u686st7]

On turbocharged EMD engines, the turbocharger is connected to the engine by a gear drive that turns it until the engine builds up enough exhaust pressure to spin the turbocharger on its own. This eliminates the "turbocharger lag" of Alco and GE engines where the engine runs "rich" ( too much fuel for the amount of air) until the turbo can catch up.

the difference is Alco has 4 strokes, the engine have a jet lag in low rpm,the generator make a "brake"when is delivering current for the motors. the motors here are not the question, the reality is the adventage of a 2 strokes engine, because the charger quickly rise up to boost air to the cylinders chamber. 4 strokes the charger need more time,because 4 strokes.2 turns,and the charger blow air in 0,5 turn. 2 strokes 1 turn the charger blow in 0,5 turn here is the adventage of 2 strokes %blowing 2 strokes

Many WDP4s have now been upgraded to 6 traction motors as well. WDG4s may have better initial acceleration because they're geared to pull loaded freight trains with max tractive effort. After a certain point WDP4s will pull ahead much easily because they're geared for higher top speed, up to 160km/h.

The most that EMD ever got out of a 16 cyl. 645 was 3600 HP in the later production 50-series locomotives (The original rating was 3500). Both ratings were pushing the engine too hard, the same problem that EMD had with the 567 engine at 2500 hp 20 years earlier. The 50 series, especially the SD50 was a disaster for EMD, most surviving SD50s have been de-rated to 3000 hp. The SD50 is a beautiful locomotive, it's a shame that they didn't run as good as they looked.
