Big Amazing Old Engines starting up Sound That Will Blow Your Mind

The thing that scares me about old Cummins is that the color of the smoke makes them look like they are going to run away at any second.

Totally exhilarating! The possibilities are endless with technology.

Health and Safety AWOL here.

Well now I know why the climate has changed - due to all that pollution....

how many people are thinking maybe that would fit in my truck ?

First picture was an EMD love them.

CLICK BATE…….NO locomotive engines as pictured

Man, there’s years of memories in this video. Overhauling a F-M sitting on a pumping unit (pumpjack to some) in the middle of winter was cold work. But in hind sight it was good work. Great memories of the engines and people I worked around.

It’s just too bad that the two locomotive engines shown to entice our viewing was NOT started and run as I and I’m sure many were waiting for.😢

Greta Thunberg!!!😂

I did not know Lycoming made a piston engine

Bout the 500KVA Cummins: OK, I know one exhaust says "pope" and the other one says "non pope", but once in a while, they spit some fire from hell. Now that's a whole theological engine!

That Fairbanks Morse was built in the year I was born ,1947....makes me feel old.

Future generations starting up old electric motors won't be so much fun.

I don't know the US name of the spray the old guy is spraying in the intake of the Fairbanks Morse to help it get running. In Australia it's called 'Start ya Bastard'. A stationary engine owner's best friend. 😂

Love it. We love our train videos in Clemson SC, Go Tigers! Keep it up

that was supposed to be a video of start up sounds? I didnt count them, but most of them were already running when filmed...

The start up picture of a huge engine was never shown. Opps

Dungarees, straw hats, baseball caps and long beards optional.

I don't know why with all the cool engines why they have to CLICK BATE the picture.

That 500 kva cummins has a stuck injector.

Don't breathe those fumes!

GM V12 567 2 stroke dynamite engine

Great - could have been even more interesting with some time indications and uses, though 🙂

How about a Norberg 16cyl...

Why are the thumbnails to these videos always a Kharkov 10d100 diesel? I didn't see a ТЭ10 locomotive start...

That Fairbanks sounds like it playing a tune in perfectly harmony.... fantastic sound...👍👍

The best sound is for me the Fairbanks.
