Train Simulator 2017 - Speed Test! #2 (USA locomotive)

[@AlexTrain5249]

That UP diesel is called the SD40-2 which was one of the most successful diesels but today the GE ES44 is by far the most successful American diesel of all time.

[@winding5064]

List of all Locomotives: GS-4 Berkshire Big Boy aka 4000 Class EMD SD40 AMTK P40DC (or P42DC) Edit: i posted this when i was dumb at locos a P40 is different than a P42

[@illinoisrailfanningproductions]

Gamers Aboard It was not Wasatch, it was King of the Wasatch named after the mountains it was built to patrol.

[@Edzeb101]

SD40 Not SD40-2

[@atkaorcadrawings7303]

The 722 is not a Berkshire but okay

[@atkaorcadrawings7303]

GamerDude4987 yep sorry didn’t fact check

[@iliketrains839]

A P40 is different than a P42, a P40's body is only one part however a P42 has the body and the nose

[@nasu50]

The big boy locomotives were ment to take big and heavy loads of freight over the Rockies, so the boiler moving is meant to happen

[@turbochargedtransit7241]

There are so many things wrong with this. The UP locomotives are SD40-2s The Amtrak locos are P42DCs (close btw)

[@domstrains3984]

GE/ General Electrics P42 Genesis

[@davidmend3z]

I have no idea what ur talking about, I may be American, but I know noting about the trains here, in more of a British steam engine kind of guy

[@NashRailfan]

UP has sd40-2s and Amtrak has P42DCs

[@LukeLovesTrains-Mr.RailYard]

The diesel is in SD40- 2 locomotive and the Amtrak is a p42 Genesis

[@Buynot]

the "Polar Express" engine is called a Nickel Plate Berkshire

[@keiyonmartin851]

Buynot Polar Express is the Pere Marquette 1225

[@LaZeRJET]

thanks

[@Buynot]

Marci Gill yes I know but the engine that was there was Nickel Plate 772...

[@thewhitegto5707]

Buynot boy its pere Marquette 1225

[@Buynot]

I know that! But the engine he used in the video that he called the Polar Express was Nickel Plate Road Berkshire #772!

[@Kentucky_Trainiac]

1st train: General Electric P42DC 2nd Train: Electro-Motive Division SD40-2 3rd Train: Union Pacific Big Boy 4th Train: Southern Pacific Daylight

[@blackbirdgaming8147]

Kentucky Trainiac The 4th is not simply the Daylight, it’s the Lima GS-4. The Big Boy is an ALCO product, thus they should be designated the ALCO Big Boy and Lima GS-4 respectively.

[@pascomapping593]

Correction: 4th train: Southern Pacific GS-4

[@KaseyLeitch]

LaZer: Skips no. 722 for the Daylight. No. 772: How is that even fair?!

[@triplej755]

0:40 made me laugh so hard. I like this channel already.

[@chevyguy5525]

The 772 is a Lima Locomotive Works ‘Berkshire’ 2-8-4 type locomotive, probably built in 1945. The engine declared to be the Polar Express’s real life counterpart is Pere Marquette 1225, even though it’s the same locomotive type.

[@MrAlex-ej8ov]

The beeping is to warn you you are speeding, it is a seventy feature.and yes, it is sad, Amtrak doesn't want their trains speeding so they put in an abs. Union Pacific is a railroad and the big boy was not the first to go over 100 mph. The big boy is the biggest locomotive ever built. The first American steam loco to surpass 100 mph was in the early EARLY 1900s the big boy was built in 1940s and streamlines already surpassed 100 daily...

[@eoinpkav152]

trains rule Its not the biggest I forgot the name but in Philadelphia there is a steam locomotive that literally broke the rails it ran on so it was retired.

[@MrAlex-ej8ov]

the big boy is the biggest steam locomotive in the world, look it up.

[@TheOnlyTYRE]

trains rule City of truro was first to reach 100 mph

[@SouthSideRailfan]

The beeping noise was from the P42, if you don't touch the controls for 30 sec it will start beeping and to make it stop you have to press the reset button otherwise it will put the emergancy brakes on.

[@brok3nD1am0nd45]

To me, steam wasn't about speed. It was about power.

[@gerrard1144]

yes because of the giant wheels they have

[@BalticFilms144]

Larger wheels mean more speed. Smaller wheels mean more power or in steam terms, tractive effort.

[@chloemuston799]

Baltic144Productions fr

[@connorjohnson7834]

Big wheels, built for speed Small wheels, built for power

[@kiritosalinas5746]

Shut your mouth

[@AndrewTheRocketCityRailfan4014]

I think what happened with the Big Boy was that a few seconds before derailing, the front set of drivers started hovering and the hinge pin that separates the two sets of drivers caused the front set to swing to the left and derail the Big Boy which is why the Big Boy was too long.

[@johnconner235games5]

LaZeR JET! You were right about the pacific diesel engine is ours, but the brothers and sisters of that type is what pulls our freight. You wanted Big Boy to go faster, but you removed the throttle and power to do that, so he failed the speed test because you have no understandings on how a steam engine works. That "Pollar Express - 772" Train Requires a redo on testing and that Engine is referring to the "Nickel Plate 765" ((Nickel Plate Road no. 765 is a 2-8-4 "Berkshire" type steam locomotive built for the Nickel Plate Road in 1944 by the Lima Locomotive Works in Lima, Ohio. Classified as a "S-2" class Berkshire, the locomotive operated fast, heavy freight and passenger trains until retirement in 1958.)) BTW Daylight would go faster if you were using the throttle and power at max, it works the same way as you use them on the diesel and electric.

[@WTC1973]

The Big Boy is actually an articulated locomotive, so it's no surprise that the boiler would begin to come off the front wheel base.

[@thatonemk6gti2010]

Btw big boy's boiler bounces because the front is on a pivot because with the 16 drivers, it is hard to make corners.

[@panzerjagertigerporsche]

Boiler of the big boy is actually meant to be detached from the front wheels so she can go down slopes easier and up slopes easier without the midsection of the train being lifted off the rails

[@brianburnes3470]

beeping is the alerter on the Amtrak. reset it and u should be able to continue

[@larrydunham1829]

Lazer jet you have the BEST videos even if I'm American and your British I don't care your the best!

[@sargentrowell81]

The P42 has a built in saftey to keep it from going over a certain speed, so you were fighting it's safety systems past 110mph I believe.

[@adventuresofamtrakcascades301]

Like Positive Train Control or PTC to name one

[@yaboi5932]

We Americans don't have good passenger services but we haul freight like there is no tomorrow

[@simonelopes-herrera4409]

On the Amtrak train you can push the yellow button to avoid the emergency brakes.

[@alexfarrell5533]

Or you can press Q

[@TrolololGaming]

That beeping is the over speed controller. Here it's set to 100 MPH, but in real life it's set to 79 MPH. If the train goes over the maximum allowed speed, the alarm sounds, and the driver must acknowledge by setting the brakes to Suppression and hit the alerted reset button. Otherwise, the computer takes over, putting the brakes on and bringing the train to a screeching halt.

[@sandraburr3770]

Trololol Gami

[@038alpha]

i got a suggestion for ya, try to put the inversor (is it how we call it) to neutral position when going to arround 100 mph, because like it is on a car, if the gearbox is engaged, the car can t go faster than the engine, and in a slope like this, the engine could actually slow the train, so i suggest putting the inversor on neutral to let gravtity do its job

[@HitachiTRQ-225]

11:10 this is a phenomenon called rolling oscillation and it happens at high speeds due to the shape of the wheels of the train, the reason bullet trains dont do it is because their wheels are farther apart and are almost complete cylinders rather than the slight cone shape of most train wheels

[@AndrewTheRocketCityRailfan4014]

Do that with French trains. But you need have the TGV compete in the challenge.

[@silverstatehighiron]

The daylight actually has that kind of whistle. It's more of a freight whistle rather than passenger.

[@dahliamcdonald9787]

Thanks and same to you Julius enjoy the rest of teacher's have a great day love you

[@NashRailfan]

“What no it’s a diesel locomotive of course it has no handbrakes!” Actually the circle on the nose is the hand brake

[@knowledgeispowermediaprodu7094]

The amtrak locomotives should also be facing the same way. Lol. If you want speed from an American train, try the amtrak Acela Express. Lol. Enjoyed the vid!

[@petermangpu3383]

Nisc seed it wus lac 200000000000000%

[@Trainboy1685]

Cool! UP 7888 is an EMD SD40-2 as some people have already stated before probably.

[@Ericland_Entertainment_Inc]

I loved this! I thought the SP Daylight 4449 would win, I have an HO model and she's my favorite train ever. I knew she could do it

[@adventuresofamtrakcascades301]

Remember kids, do not mess with daylight.

[@cool_guy_1906]

the BigBoy was designed to pull long 100 car trains on its own. And go up hills, it was made to replace the Challenger 4-6-6-4

[@benwetzel8449]

the union pacific is a railroad, NOT a locomotive

[@ahurneman4205]

Ben Wetzel Sir your sum

[@penguinmaster7]

idk, i love the GE Union Pacifics :P

[@Railman1225]

That beeping is the alerter that's telling you to slow down. If you don't acknowledge it, then it applies the emergency brake.

[@Oskar-js6iv]

You know how you said Big Boy would be the first american steamer to go 100mph? Im gonna have to dissagre since alot of Americas streamlined trains, like SP 4449 went over 100 MPH. The Milwaukee Road had a Streamlined steamer thats called The Hiawatha, and they went 100mph daily. So, im gonna have to dissagre with that one!!! Still a good video tho :P

[@angrya4pacific738]

Oskar0110 even I disagreed with Oliver about that

[@benwetzel8449]

Oskar0110 what about 999

[@Oskar-js6iv]

999 is from Galaxy Railways and its Japanese

[@benwetzel8449]

Oskar0110 no, I'm talking about NYC 999, it reached 115 mph in 1902

[@Random.Channel_]

+Ben Wetzel did you know in real life the restored 611 can reach 150

[@tempesttyphoon2925]

The reason for sudden bracking message is that the Amtrak locomotive has a fail safety system. While the locomotive is moving if the driver does not touch the throute or the horn the train will slow and stop.

Can you made a triple header speed test and race

[@thatonemk6gti2010]

The Union Pacific is called an SD40-2 and it's so loud because it has an American V16 with about 4000 horsepower or so I've read.

[@blackbirdgaming8147]

AbledBeast It’s powered by an EMD 16-645E3 producing 3000 hp.

[@Bluerazor52]

The Union pacific is a railroad company, not a locomotive creator. That train was probably an EMD (electromotive diesel)

[@carolusrex9918]

The reason Daylight has a weird whistle is so it sounds aggressive.

[@godzilla3797]

Yea its my most favorite whistle

[@zechtheg4m3r19]

Amtrak: P42 UP: Gp40 Big boy's Boiler: Attached at front (kinda) that's why it looked like it was coming off, cuz its only attached at the back of the bogie for the front wheels to connect to the boiler.

[@eliaslundstedt5607]

Union Pacific is the railway company. This specific engine is called SD40-2

the reason you thought that steam engine (@ 2:18) looked like the polar express is because that specific type of steam engine was used to design the engine in the movie.
