Starting up a Union Pacific GP60

In Roseville Yard

[@OfSpeed]

there is something so powerful about the sound of a train engine

[@fsp91]

Maybe because it IS very powerful

[@canadianrushfan12]

I love laying in bed at night and listening to them go by

[@BuckeyeTrains]

@@canadianrushfan12 same, I’m a train enthusiast!

[@monsterdemolitionman1235]

@@BuckeyeTrains when did the emd geeps first start producin

[@BuckeyeTrains]

@@monsterdemolitionman1235 Gonna have to say between the 1940’s through the 1970’s cause idrk

[@stephenadams595]

16 cylinders, 710 cubic inches each. 3800hp @ 900 RPM. Reliable.

[@LegoWormNoah101]

Yep. An EMD 16-710

[@BluntForceTrauma666]

Goddamn. That's a fucking _beautiful_ sound isn't it???

[@pedroricofortuneiro9381]

Yes

[@beardedgent2178]

BluntForceTrauma666 Elegant start up

[@richardharrisjr.8862]

Sounds bad ass!!!!

[@Jleed989]

Ya but not UR language

[@4gauge10]

Thats one really mean sounding startup of a 2-cycle turbo diesel.

[@AlanFerroaficionadoPoblano]

Beautiful sound!!!!

[@nohandle62]

Love these videos. 👍🏻

[@GiantLeninHead]

So shiny, so clean

[@nickrehmani]

Love it! Love it! Love it!! Power at its best

[@BossSpringsteen69]

The old backwards kick to the bottom door lock while walking away. Seasoned veteran.

[@d2sfavs]

EMDs are the best thanks for sharing

[@derricktherailfan]

This Union Pacific GP60 is sweet!!

[@silicon212]

Great sounding 710.

[@444mrjimmy]

what a glorious noise

[@markgorney3325]

I want one in my bedroom.

[@MCatSHF]

Hello Ryandaylight: Awesome EMD!!! How many would give up their left testicle to do what these 2 lucky dogs get to do? Coming to work in the morning & get to tour around the countryside taking in the scenery in 1 of these.

[@kkoch666]

It's not that easy..

[@ralfie8801]

More like coming in at 2:00 AM or whatever other time they call and tell you to be there.

[@j.m.youngquist419]

Believe me you do not want to work for Union Pacific

[@TheBeeMan1994]

I would never give my testicle for my job... its a job

[@Anthonyemo4life]

That's what semi trucks should sound like in the future

[@AbelG8781]

? In the future they'll be electrified

[@TravelAndInfoWithHanif]

awesome

[@infinity3jif]

the beast awakes

[@avidrailer1870]

Nice Video!!

[@fawazachmadnasrulloh717]

Very good

[@erishartanto2428]

Very nice 👍👍👍

[@theundertaker7447]

Sweet!

[@nanashimaru]

I want to put this engine on my Land Cruiser.

[@gag4s]

Nice!!

[@AdityaMukherjee2005]

This Locomotive is sounds like emd wdp 4 of Indian Railways

[@SoaresGaucho]

0:22

[@Toxicstriker55]

It sounds somewhat similar to our Indian WDP4 made by EMD.

[@jacobruiz97]

They both have the 710G3 prime mover

[@anchannel5379]

Please watch start up CC 205 EMD

[@tenvelli]

I expected it to be like a normal car starting up

[@scenicdepictionsofchicagolife]

Definitely not normal. It's a 50 ton uniflow 2 stroke turbodiesel with a single cylinder displacement of 710 cubic inches. That's more than two 5.0L V8 engines per cylinder. Nearly 4000 horsepower. These engines are crazy and sound insane :D

[@Intellistation6225]

I wonder what the minimum rpm is before the engine stalls

[@AlexJeffDust-RenAzuma66]

I'd be curious to know this too. It sounded like it got to about 160-170rpm there, I wouldnt think it can go far below since it's so slow at that point

[@justinr7221]

0:42 sounds like ISL9 with a Allison B400R or a ISC with a Allison B400R but at 0:52 sounds more like a DDS50EGR with a Allison B500R6

[@theinformativerailfan2575]

NOT like either of those engines you bus nerd

[@justinr7221]

Wow thanks for the insult 👍

[@pedroricofortuneiro9381]

Cool sound

[@philliplee980]

nice.

[@ryandaylight]

I am not sure that was the first time i have been to Roseville

[@minecraftgonewild184]

Well,if it hasn't been started up in a while then,yea,but that is an old engine

[@beardedgent2178]

God she is beautiful What's her model.

[@AlanFerroaficionadoPoblano]

GP60

[@Anthonyemo4life]

Yep thats a beautiful female train

[@SFRyanGamer]

Like a indian railways wdp 4 locomotive

Wuih ini kereta apa bukan ya suaranya

[@nanashimaru]

Great engine!!! 6000ps???

[@serhiikrupskyi2954]

Wiki says that 3800 hp

[@nanashimaru]

Thank you very much !!

[@jayfine01]

Does it have trouble startin up?

[@silicon212]

It was probably cold. Diesel engines of this size and larger do not use glow plugs to assist at startup.

[@ktroutman278]

That's prob EFI For ya

[@ktroutman278]

Is it EFI or the governed ?

[@silicon212]

It is governed. It was built about 5 years before EMD began using common rail EFI.

[@alexmcface]

I guess nobody cares about the shiny paint...

[@Nine-Signs]

I mean no offence to Americans, but why are your trains so god damned ugly today. I don't get it, you built some of the most beautiful engines ever created for 100+ years then seemingly got to 1960 and went "f**k it, build a brick"

[@intelceleron44]

We got the best-lookin' shit in the world, bud. Trucks, trains, planes...everything. Don't be a hater. Pete 379s, W900 KDubs; Big Boys, P-51s, P-47s, P-40s, B-17s, B-24s, C-130s, F-18s, F-15s, B-29s. I don't care where you came from - our shit's tough as fuck, and looks badass doin' it. You're definitely entitled to your own opinion. But I'm entitled to mine, and I don't need to know what country your junk comes from to know I don't want to look at it as I wait at grade crossings.

[@micsayre]

@@intelceleron44 Lighten up, Francis.

[@voidjavelin23]

you wont see any locomotive thst is streamlined like a bulldog nose, its because its very hard to SWITCH
