My father worked at the EMD plant in LaGrange when I was young. We used to go to family open house there all the time. It was awesome to see the massive factory up close.
What a beautiful work of art & awesome engineering. Well done, nice video thank you for posting it. Now please put that engine in my backyard so I can start it up everyday :-)
I don't care what anyone says in complaints to the 20 cylinders snapping crankshafts, this is one of the nicest EMD 645s, in both sound and power, ever built, in my opinion
Nothing better than a 20-645E3. Thanks for taking care of these wonderful machines for the next generation to enjoy. You're a hero!
Keith Ode Thank you. I take pride in rebuilding this baby's. As we speak I'm putting a oil mainifold on. V12 567-c. It was built in 1954
