The EMD engines were originally designed and built by a company called Winton Engines. They were designated the W201A. GM bought the engines from Winton initially and decided that they were just what they wanted so they bought the company, then designed the first of the 567 series, basically a redesigned and improved 201A. GM also used a smaller version of this engine when they built the Detroit Diesel, for trucks and marine use. They were also an awesome engine.
Diesel locomotives had a particular sound that scared the crap outta me when I was a little kid. Rumbling giants. Fast forward a few years and my great old Dad took me to work and let me operates the throttle and brake during a shunt. Never forget
How much are some Boyesen reed valves for my 8v92 2 stroke silver. i cannot find them during tear down as the must have disappeared. Also i need some 7507 T6 billet CNC thingy aluminum connection rods for my OMC 2 wankle rotary snowmobile engines? i cannot find them!
@@hakeemsd70m me too i like the, EMD's, Detroits, fairbanks morse OP. The sachs d600 is awsome 2 stroke diesel from germany and cummins ACE OP is 2 stroke. ever heard of a hirth d24 2 stroke diesel, i would love to get one.
You should hear them at full tilt when they were brand NEW units and pulling 16,000 tons of coal out of one of the mines near Gillette, WY. I used to slide open a window just to listen to them SCREAM.....god, it was orgasmic!
It is a uniflow scavenge engine. It has a charged airbox which surrounds the cylinders. Ports at the bottom of the cylinders are uncovered by the pistons as they go BDC, allowing charged air to come in and push the exhaust out through 4 open exhaust valves in the cylinder head.
Diesel locomotives are a wonderful piece of engineering. I really admire these giant machines, and they are the ones that bring us utility and help our products such as food, coal and wood reach our industries.
We who love these "gears", also like the sound of a turbo compound Wright R 3350...pretty awesome to behold...and it even flies...lol. Thanks...as a RR buff.
It reminds me of multiple morse code operators in an emergency/immediate broadcast mode... And the engine in this video hasn't even gone into full throttle 😱... It's amazing what we take for granted everyday when our respective engines serve our daily "routines" 🏆 💪
I am so happy after seeing this video & loved this video , the process of running the engine to generate power is like the pumping the blood by heart .
I love to sit in engine while running. I enjoyed sitting in the engine at Shiridi only one time when the train is in halt position. This is abt 20 yrs back incidence. The driver allowed me for only one minute. Tq vm to the driver & my lovely Indian Railways.🙏👍🇮🇳🇮🇳
A part of me would have an SD40 mounted on one side in my garage just to hear that sound every time I started it up, and hooked up to a power generator and a lathe/grinding wheel setup just so I could say it had a reason for being there. =)
I LOVE THIS! THIS IS ONE OF THE TOUGHEST ENGINES EVER MADE. THERE IS NOTHING TOUGHER THAN THESE ENGINES. HEARING THIS ENGINE CRANK OVER SOUNDS SO TOUGH. ONE OF THE BEST UPLOADS ON YOU TUBE. BRUTE POWER. I HAVE WATCHED THIS SO MANY TIMES. I CAN LISTEN TO THIS ENGINE IDLE ALL DAY.
yes true 4 joke strokes are throwaway junk, i hate 4 strokes in cars trucks too! now we are even we are more brainwashed by all this awful LED lights every where!
THANK YOU SO MUCH !!! It brings back memories!!! I was around it for 37 1/2 years! I thought I wouldn't miss hearing it, but it does do a body good to behold something as sweet as an EMD engine! SO much nicer than a GE engine!
@@jlo13800 what in the fuck are you talking about dude I see you everywhere. You're literally talking about 2 stroke gas engines lmao. You're obviously a troll
I always used the pre lube pump before start up. 16 E M D 645 E-7 locomotive division marine application. 16 cylinder, 645 series, E-7 means turbo charged. You could get fired if after sitting 8 for hours you did not pre lube. I had two of these beautiful engines in my engine room. Absolutely 👍 no problem with the G M ‘S also G M diesel generators 671 and a V 8-71 . You also had to blow down the big engines, open air cock for each cylinder and turn it over to make sure no fluids leaked into the cylinder. If you did not blow it down and fluid leaked into the engine you could bend a connector arm ( rod ).
This is an older version, 645E3B we were allowed 5 days before prelube, these old girls weren't fitted with prelube pumps and we made our own using air powered diaphragm pumps.

My dad works for the train company Ltec and showed me the same diesel 16 cylinder engine in the video and showed me the removable valve covers, I am more of a car geek but I was very intrigued
I ran Burlington Northern coal and freight for years. It was always a thrill to go back and fire-up an SD-40 or SD-45 after it had been shut down for whatever reason. Had the privilege of seeing a turbocharger failure on the third unit while on the lead unit. Glad I was at the head end at the time. We used to occasionally get those BN 6600-series "covered wagon" units on freight consists. There were times I had to walk back through those units while they were at full power. I found that to be rather "sexy" and frightening as hell at the same time. Must have been a lot like porking Pamila Anderson in the early days...........................
Gosh, I cannot get enough of that heartbeat noise mid-startup. It just sound so ominous and powerful.
It has a heart rate.

How come the torque figure?
What are the size of the exhaust valves?
These still pull freight in Ireland. Not huge trains, but a thousand tons single headed. Ours arrived in 1977. All still in service.
I LOVE the sound of EMD locomotive engines. It's one of the best sounds in the world.
GrnArrow092 me too
And Alco prime movers for me as well. Nothing beats the sound of either.
man listen to the pacer train engine
The sound - music to my ears. Amazing that this 2-stroke has a turbo, camshaft and all those valves.
This and a class 37 start up are music to The ears
Never gets old hearing diesels turn fuel into noise. Have this one as my wake up alarm on my phone.

It's a two stroke diesel 645 cubic inches per cylinder V16 and 3000 hp
anthony cini 2-stroke? Sure?
Indeed.
Two stroke 645 cubic inches per cylinder V16
It is a uniflow scavenge engine. It has a charged airbox which surrounds the cylinders. Ports at the bottom of the cylinders are uncovered by the pistons as they go BDC, allowing charged air to come in and push the exhaust out through 4 open exhaust valves in the cylinder head.
anthony cini really 2 stroke? mmm.. it still using air starting system?
Passenger: "Mr Engineer, how much torque does your engine make?"
Engineer: "Yes."
This was a smaller engine, only 3000 hp but the larger ones are 4300 hp.
@@TheRealVGR I call these torque numbers very precise and accurate
@@TheRealVGR 2.2 MW? Whew..... that's a beast!
I'm guessing 3000 pounds of torque maybe????
@@KurtBenning late reply but I've read the bigger 16-710 makes around 25k pounds of torque with 4500hp so this with 3000 is maybe around 20k or so
love the sound of it turning over

What a mechanism, salute to the inventor
Goosebumps for engine lovers
One of the Best Videos ever for Engines... An OPENED RUNNING Engine... That i have never see before...
Kindest reguards.
