    Great video! Neat to see some contorted industrial lines like this still being used.

    The cab reminds me of a "Baby Faced Baldwin" . Great catch and thank you for uploading. Excellent video.

      Yes, I agree. The carbody had a bit more curvature for clearance reasons.

    Really gives a sense of scale seeing it pretty much drive on the street here, terrifying in a cool way

    3:29: For a moment I thought the bell was coming from the locomotive, rather than the level crossing, as being American built under license I thought the locomotive would carry its own mechanical bell.

    Almost reminds me more of a Baldwin Babyface double ender that the CNJ used to run

    Double ended bulldog cab. Similar to the Victorian Railway s B class here in Australia.

    • @Tom-Lahaye

      The VR B class was the actual pattern to which all European bulldog nosed Nohab and AFB locomotives were built.
      The bogie pattern is shared with those of the early B class, the cab and roof is more curved to fit into the gabarit used in Europe, but altough they look to be lower than a B class or US F unit they are actualy 1 or 2 inches higher at the roof top.
      I always liked to see and hear the AFBs (NMBS/SNCB 52-53 and 54 classes) in Belgium, they did run in the south east in the more elevated part of Belgium, these climbing gradients up to 2.3% double or tripple headed was an awesome sight and sound.
      Apart from these there are many more locomotives in Europe powered by EMD 2 stroke engines, from 8-567C up to 16-710G3C, Belgium had even railcars powered by one Detroit 12V-71 or 2 6-71 engines, these were sold under GM-EMD for rail applications.

      Doesn't Australia still regularly use f units?

    Didn't EMD make a couple of double-ended "F" units for the Jersey Central? Seems I read an article in TRAINS Magazine some years back about it.

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      no, they were Baldwin DR 6-4-2000 units built in 2 batches of 3 each.

      Clyde EMD did make a double ended F unit in Australia for Victorian Railways.

    Nice catch. Sucks that some teens spray painted the one side, and is it in demonstrator paint or the company? Ether way this thing is great.

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is a pseudo demo scheme. Several of these units working for different operators have them, it's a retro thing. This one was never a demo.

    Looks like a cargo version of the British Deltic

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A more apt description would be the Euro-F unit. Deltics had a much more square cross section to the nose.

  • @gilbertporter4992

    Why did they paint this in the GM demonstrator livery? Has it been repainted since?

    • @fmnut
      @fmnut  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The loco is owned by CFL, a private freight hauler. At the time of privatization, many of this type were sold off from the various state-owned railways for private operation. There were a wide variety of paint schemes applied. Also, I do not believe this is the demonstrator scheme, as that loco was dark blue or green with white striping and bore the lettering NOHAB-GM. I believe the scheme on 1023 is more of an homage to the GM ancestry of the unit, even though it is repowered and no longer has its 567 power plant. CFL painted several of their NOHABs in this scheme, some with and some without the GM logo. I can find no evidence that the loco has been repainted.
