There’s something about this game, especially with the airbrake mod installed. Like you, the only run I really know is the Harbour-Steel Mill stretch. Though I was crazy running the steamer through there with 50 cars, I think my laptop would melt well before 75! White-knuckling it into the steel mill with no air left is always a fun time. For future reference, you can bleed the air with shift-b while standing on a car. It only bleeds the brake cylinder, not the brake pipe so the car needs to be dumped for full effect. Best paired with the handbrake mod to avoid accidental runaways. Next time you try a monster train, marshalling the train with your setouts near the head end will help with the RCL issue. Also makes your conductor happy since he doesn’t have to walk so far!

2700 tons is enough for 2 DE6, but it would have been an interesting time getting out of the harbor up the grade (Each DE6 is rated for 1400t). It also depends on if you are going to the harbor or from it. For instance, my most recent train was/is 1201m long weighing 3,471 tons leaving OWC. I picked up all the Steel and harbor jobs going from iron mine west down towards the harbor. Though I may have an issue going up the grade just south of SM.

Running a diesel out a fuel isn't totally horrible, you just have to manually pump fuel through until all the filters and lines up to the injector pump are full, then crank it until it fires. Under "normal" circumstances they'll fire right back up and run without issue. Worst case scenario you airlock the injectors, and then it takes a LOT of cranking (and maybe some starting fluid) to finally get it running!!

The curve on 36:32 I came in at 100 and if it was spicy at 60 I literally flew a steam engine for a minute

​@@cryptoneoIn real life, no matter if it's steam, diesel or electric, only the brake valve in the leading engine/cab is working, all other locos have their valves in cutoff position. And only that one train driver (who is actually driving the whole train) is in charge of operating the brakes on the train. BUT: If there are drivers on the other locos (mandatory on steam locos, optional on diesel and electric locos which can be remotely controlled from the leading loco) and communication between them is more advanced than giving whiste/horn signals, they can temporarily activate their brake valves to help and speed up filling the brake pipe with air pressure when departing from a stop. Also, each loco can provide additional brake force and speed in case of an emergency brake application, allowing the air to escape quicker and use sand under its wheels.

I'm not super familiar with locomotive diesel engines, but on automobiles, running out of fuel means air in the injection system. Diesel engines really hate that! You have to bleed the air out of EVERYTHING when that happens, because you have introduced a compressible fluid in a system not designed to work with it. Hope that helps, cheers.

@Bendigo1

2 жыл бұрын

It isn't so much about adding compressible fluid, but more the lack of lubrication and pressure that can burn up pumps, and the junk that is usually at the bottom of the tank getting into the system and clogging filters. It is also a pain to prime the system when it runs empty of fuel.

@brianargo4595

I still don't understand how people think fuel tanks somehow send fuel from the top of the tank. Aerobatic airplanes may have a weighted pickup hose, since they'll probably spend some time fully inverted, but nearly all land based fuel tanks simply have a port or pump at the bottom of the fuel tank. The idea of "junk at the bottom of the fuel tank" screwing up an engine is bunk. If you have an in tank fuel pump and regularly run it low, you'll burn up more fuel pumps because the fuel acts as the coolant, but even in aforementioned airplanes, they're still drawing fuel form the "bottom" of the tank.

You have to bleed the whole system when a diesel runs out of fuel. I would’ve recommended not a caboose, but a switcher on the back of the train. Could stop, cut the consist, use it to pull things into place, turn it in, hook to next, repeat, then move to the next place. Or use that third “not really needed” diesel that ran out of fuel and the middle as your primary power and the lead engine for switching… heck, the blocked track you ran into even agrees with me as it sent the cars into orbit.

Whenever I try building trains from more than 3-5 jobs, I can't stop thinking about what a waste of time shunting a train together for an hour for a run that will take 30min at most and end with another 30-60min shunting to park all jobs... However Oil and Cryo often spawn as long 2. If you get lucky 1km trains are quite easy to achieve. Edit: seeing how you "handled" SM brings back unpleasant memories of me doing the very same thing. xD

Great run and video, thank you. What's with the horn on that loco? - if I didn't know better I'd say it was a rebadged CN because it sounds like the mating call of a moose.

I did this too, though the consist was a bit longer, and I was using a mix of shunters and big diesel. I do know I didn't bother taking up slack slowly and ended up damaging multiple cars from jerking them around. Which was frightening as I preferentially picked oil and other flammable/volatile cargo to pull when I could.

Also , Hyce come to colorado and ill show you how badass those locomotives actually are ( Ford Jeeps of locomotives)

A: running a diesel out of fuel means you need to reprime the whole system, which becomes more difficult as the engine gets larger/has more cylinders. 2: Diesel fuel is the lubricant for the injectors, so as you spin the engine to attempt to start it, those injectors are eventually running dry, which CAN wear them out faster, but if you've properly primed the system, it's not likely. If your priming pump doesn't work properly and the only way to get the system primed is to keep the engine running on ether, you'll risk washing and scoring the cylinder walls.

I'm sure it's not very feasible in the game engine, but it seems to me that a handy tool would be the ability to set a camera on a car and have a PIP view on the HUD. Could set it on the trailing car so you could have conductor (caboose) and engineer views, or on one of the cut cars to simulate one of the brakemen.

If you run a diesel out of fuel, you have to prime and bleed the fuel pump and all of the injectors. If it was under load when it ran out of diesel, you run a good chance of burning up the bearings in the turbo due to lack of oil going to it.

If I was ever qualified to run an engine by myself I'd make them hire someone so that I can keep busy and we can take turns at the control so that I wouldn't end up with tunnel vision or risk dozing off due to boredom

Kinda yeah

the reason for running completely out of fuel being very bad is because of the high pressure fuel system. I would assume the filters are because of the crap in the bottom of the fuel tank being drawn into the fuel system. the high pressure fuel system when run empty gets air in it, which of course is compressible and most notably not fuel. If I can recall correctly the unit injectors have issues bleeding because you dont get the air compressed enough to open the poppet valve in the injector. most of my knowledge is of common rail and of the P pumps on Cummins diesels. its all the same with direct injection but for where the fuel is being pressurized. some high pressure fuel systems produce metal shavings when they dont have fuel

the longest train ever

I tried something similar, 5 jobs from the Steel Mill to the Harbour. I think the game objected to how far out the yard I had to move them when connecting it all up prior to starting the job as 2 of them despawned :(
