Ok I just saw this vid and just figured it out. It’s a 3-way battle between Independence (seen clearly in the video), Freedom (the author stated that they were on the Freedom), and an Oasis Class ship in the far right corner! If you look past the lifeboats, the large hull of the third ship is in the background.

Doesn't get any better than this. Old Alco RS units rock on in daily use for some 70 years.😊

And here I go, worried about my 3.0TDI making a thumping sound when its cold (it's rather a paranoia). This is a pure hammer vs. metal, yet it's a healthy machine.

Doesnt look like winter at all...

In the past, we had early series ТЭМ2 shunter in our station (Piriatin, Ploltava region, Ukraine), and it sounds and smokes very same) Later I read about Alco, which was common Base for ТЭ1, ТЭ2, ТЭМ1, ТЭМ2 locomotoves, and Д50, ПД1 engines.

Sounds a bit like some of the Soviet era diesel engines that are still around. I do miss the sound of the old MLW FPA4s - essentially BB versions of PA’s. Nothing like hearing them accelerate uphill from a signal stop with 8 or more coaches behind.

I’ve been onboard the independence of the seas before!

Affectionately called cabbage choppers.

I have the feeling that unit is not tier 4 compliant ?!?!

Hi Kerry B, your video really impressed me! Can I feature a (Alco RSD1 #8652 starting on a cold winter morning) on my channel? I'll link to your video in the description.

ALCo not Alco RSD-1 not RSD1

Wowowowo nice!!

What ship are you on?

Sounds like a 3 way horn battle

Must be annoying being there but its really funny. Is it a RCL thing?

R u on Icon or Wonder of the Seas?

What camera did you use to capture that? great quality!

Wait, does that have a Vulcan Foundry engine like the British Rail Class 40?! Because it sounds EXACTLY like one!

Cool.

Built by cave men, for cave men.

Música para mis oídos!

Good Job.

You know, these locos with a turbocharged engine would start much better if you put a starter motor on the turbo as well as the engine rated for the turbo idle speed, because it would get air into the motor faster and pressurise the cylinders so it'd start quicker because of correct compression.

Beautiful engine sounds 💙💙💙💙

I’m actually going to be making a model of this type of locomotive in a few weeks.

I like it

Worked with alcos lots on the BC Rail

I ran lots of alcos on the BCRAIL

This almost sounds like an English Electric lump.

There should be a fuel and oil heater system on these things to cut the clag but then we wouldn't have videos of cranky Alcos starting up

i miss the old powernoise turbines,they where 100% louder and crazy screaming..i miss the old sound it was the best sound in the world, i live not far from ramstein germany,and i often look the planes there and miss the old sound of thr galaxy

It’s trying so hard to be a steam locomotive

Euro 6?

Oh hey, an RSM-1! What a surprise! I’m actually building an HO scale model of one right now. It’s going to look similar to 8652, but with different trucks.

Damned thing going to hammer itself to death.

Time for nuke/steam locomotives.

Fantastic train video. Greetings Joe 😊

I love trains I live by a railroad track I see them everday

I think she needs new piston rings or something...

It's Great Quality. Nice Job Man I enjoyd it

I'm just getting into these cold start videos, and I'm curious about something. There are two distinguishable sounds being produced - the first is a "cranking" sound like a generator or starter motor turning over and the other is more of an idling sound one would hear after the motor has been started. If the motor has started, why is the cranking noise still heard? Shouldn't it cut back to just the idle?

Give it some ether, boys!

Wow alco is a excellent engine i love these alcos i wish i had a alco

Boy ALCO knew how to build em !! Good old Schenectady know how !! Used to live 15 minutes from where she was built

2:33 when it finishes starting up

i like the video
