      I call it a 12-cylinder symphony orchestra with fireworks. You _gotta_ love it.

    TTI got B36-7 and all of the old U25 and 28B's were cut up so rebuilding 260 was out of the question. At the end 260 was shoving a lot of heavy loads of coal in Maysville Ky power plant and this can be seen on DVD called GE Shortlines in the Southeast from Plets Express.

    Like that sound!! Years ago the NYNH&H RR had U25B diesels. It was a pleasure to hear them working a grade with the throttles wide open. Sometimes the exhaust would make a snarling noise when the U25Bs were really working hard.

      They have that CHOK A BLOCK sound to them .
      The PITTSBURGH & LAKE ERIE railroad ran the U-25B's also .
      They would have fire coming out of the stacks !

    Unlikely this is the first time these two units ran together...the U28B was originally CBQ 114.

    I was wondering if I could use some audio from your video for a project of mine. The project would be posted to the public, and you would receive credit for the audio.

      They'll shoot a little fire out the stack sometimes. Even the AC44's did that. The noise is simply 4-cycle raw power.
