A short video capturing the sound of a 3800 horsepower locomotive being revved up. Engine was already warm.


The engine noise you hear in the background is another locomotive attached to the one that is being started. This engine is an EMD SD60 (special duty) and has 3800 horsepower. It was built in 1986.

I do not work for the railroad in any way. This footage was given to me. I have more videos ready for release. Subscribe to stay in the loop!
