Is it typical to have five high adhesion locos online all at the head end? Here on the east coast I only see three 4400HP 6 axle units on the head or four lower HP/4 axle locos in power at one time.
Here on the west coast trains leaving Los Angeles have to climb Cajon Pass which is one reason for multiple, often more that 3, high adhesion units. For a while now BNSF has been running distributed power meaning two or three units on the front and two on the rear.
I’ve seen a Union Pacific train that had 8 or 9 locomotives on the point a couple years ago. As it went by I heard engine noise and exhaust from each engine. It was definitely a rare and exciting catch.
This GE chug is pure music! I would say that SP 4449 has the edge in loudness at startup!
Yeahh, its music to my ears
Such an outstanding video, this is why I love gevos, love the way they were build, the power each gevo has, and their horn is perfect.
Oh my god, what an eargasm! This vid deserves more views!!!
Fullerton is such a pretty place
I bet the ground shook with these bad boys revving up.
Thanks for the comment. I certainly felt the throbbing in my chest with every power stroke.
@@markrhuett Certainly some powerful diesels.
AWESOME GEVO sounds, I bet the bridge shook from these diesels revving up
I love GEVO's they are my favourite locomotives.
Love the sound of notch 8 GE Engine better than EMD
"What music do you listen to?"
My most honest answer:
Hell Yeah! No better sounding locomotives than GEVO’s that was awesome dude I subbed for sure!
2 ES44ACs 1 ET44AC and 2 ES44ACs
Definitely pretty badass. Love the GEVO 12, sounds so mean
Nice video, they sound amazing
Quality content, i love trains :p
This is why I favor diesels over steam locomotives
! Very good video, like
CHUG TIME
The main reason im getting an ESU LokSound Programmer for my engines when i get em
The Tier 4 Gevo is much quieter than the others
It was ringing (was starting up)

Mark Huett they put DPUs in middle of trains

Tier 4 sound like garbage.
It wasn’t on yet, hence why you don’t hear anything but ringing lol
