Awesome locos!!. There were some streamliners here too, FPD 7 Alco, Baldwin and GE "shovel nose". Greetings from Argentina, the Latinamerica's down under.
@@wavesnbikes i hope so...both products match really nicely. But it seems Alco products here are saying goodbye. And the Marplatense coaches...still remain out of service till further notice. They require a heavy investment on maintenance and modernisation...
@@nachoqualsevol554 Marplatense coaches are worth every dollar invested in them... They can probably still buy parts from USA. I forgot to mention now that your tracks have been rebuilt, it's time to get those Talgos rolling, too.
@@wavesnbikes i totally agree with you...i'd love to see them again at its historic express service from Buenos Aires to Mar del Plata (400km) in "4 hours and a little while" ...
In 2016, a bloke called Bernie Baker organised a gathering of "Streamliner" type diesel locos from all over Australia at Goulburn Roundhouse. They all have that very distinct rounded front, and, as far as I'm aware, it was to celebrate that type of locomotive design, and it was also taken as an opportunity to have as many "streamliners" in one place at one time as possible.
Australia looks like a railfan paradise! These locomotives look something like EMD's E-units that were built and used in America up until about 1970. I think the American E-units were better looking than the Aussie locos, but I think the double-cab Aussie locos look great.
Yes, except the US E-units had A-1-A trucks with only two traction motors, the centre axle was an idler. The ones in this clip are C0-C0 units, with 3 motors per truck, all axles powered.
@JS317Productions calm down. Nobody is trying to steal your thunder. :) We just want to know about them. Were they manufactured by a subsidiary of General Motors or EMD?
@@Geebax2 You may need to rethink that statement. I am fairly sure GM1 at least has A-1-A configuration, GM10 is highly likely also to be the same. Open to correction as usual.
Just because the fan is spinning doesn’t mean it’s fully online, it probably receiving power via the the other locos so some of the electrical work. And no, it’s not operational.
Great videos, was certainly an exciting and a great weekend
Great crystal clear viewing for all us rail fans,Thanks for posting this HQ video Bevan.
Magic footage.
Great video!!!!

Love those FPD7. You guys need to fix them to pull those Chinese coaches Argentina bought.
And those Budd coaches for Marplatense are nice.

The purple and silver painted unit is the same scheme that led our train from Pimba to Kalgoorlie on our way to Perth a long time ago.
David Dowling that is gm1 the first diesel locomotive in Australia
Total beasts.
2:10
How many in the consist were actually running do you know? Just the lead unit?
brilliant video, but I'm sorry: I still expect to see tri-ang railways on one of the double Cabbers :)
muir8009 so what.
@@daviddowling9830 Were you born a rude idiot or did you have to practice?
Very impressive to look at. Could someone please enlighten me as to what was happening?

The last 2 Gm class are A1A and not co co units.

@@220heavyst Yes, my apologies, those GMs were A-1-A.
So basically these are like if the took an F7 and made it look like a Deltic
This is the new DMU trains to replace the Xplorer and XPT
Enough horsepower?
Oh Blimey I’m A Limey From Down Under Where The Sun Don’t Shine .....
8:46 holy crap. S306 was powering!!
That’s GM10, I can assure you S306 was quite dead.
@@lithgowtrainspotting4105 nah I saw it's fans spinning surely it's on at least
@@lithgowtrainspotting4105 was it operational though?
