GE U23B Loading run 1 to 8! TURN IT UP! 

I can imagine, Rapido makes wonderful models.

Maybe, but it's hard to beat the roar of an EMD 2-stroke.

@@andywomack3414 Agreed. I hope to someday hear a proper 567 in person, or even a non-turbo 645.... love me a roots blower under load.

@@Kudlaty771 I practically grew up and worked among those early generation EMD's.

@@Kudlaty771 Australia still has a few 567s running and lots of 645s in operation.

@@BPJJohn looks like i'll have to make my way to Aus. ;)

My dad remembers seeing the old GEs as a kid (U30s, U33s, and so on) and he called the "lug-lugs" because of their distinctive exhaust note. At the time he didn't know what they were other than they sounded vastly different than the first gen EMD units he saw more frequently.

The early uboats did, but all the half notches did was speed the engine up while keeping the previous notch's power. Rebuilds eliminated half-notches.

Engine size was too big,for a truck.

@@Joe-d7m6k I meant GE making an appropriate sized engine of course, like a 6-15 liter engine sizes, not this exact engine.

Somewhere with wooded hills and small mountains. Eastern US, someplace like Pittsburgh, Pa, but could be a lot of places with hills east of the Mississippi.

Saaaaaaaaaaandd

@@mstng100mph ty

all GE's sound better than EMD's in Notch 8

The chug is too iconic, I prefer GE over EMD any day.

GEs sound better than EMD

Try a non turbocharged Alco RS-11. There's some raw power for you!

whats so wrong about it anyway

he means did you fall off the roof?!

@@TomPauls007 who knows if it fell off?

Think someone had all of the ones the Southern ran back in the day.
