Flamin' 'GLORIOUS' 50033 cold start with flames | 28/12/2020
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
On a day where the temperature remained between -7 and -10 throughout, class 50 diesel 50033 'GLORIOUS' starts up with loads of clag and even flames at Kidderminster on the Severn Valley Railway. It is then seen making several passes under the footbridge at Kidderminster with thrash and more clag.

Similar to an old aircraft radial engine: The individual cylinders all have a committee meeting to decide if they want to actually get up and do something. If this first stage is agreed then they have another meeting to decide who should be the first to fire, and a further meeting to decide in what order the other cylinders will join in! :P

AWESOME! I love trains. Had several model trains as a kid. Rode a few in my life. Once rode from Chicago all the way to Texas. I even rode a steam engine a couple times. I was searching for diesel and accidentally found this. A few days ago I learned the block heater on my Jeep with diesel engine had given up the ghost. It was -10 that day and I needed to run some errands. Yikes, when she started it sounded like a metal coffee can with a bunch of ball bearings getting shook up. Made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I was about to shut it off when it quieted and revved up a bit. My dad drove delivery truck for a company back in the late 40's. It had a diesel engine. They had a small auxiliary tank with half diesel, half gasoline. They had a valve to switch to the small tank if it didn't want to start up. A guy would have his hand on the valve and switch to main tank as soon as she lit up. Not sure how that affected its longevity but it might be easier on the engine than ether.
Come back to this One of my favourite KZread clips❤
Oh nice one. One of these mighty engines led our train from Paddington London to Plymouth Devon back in 1980. 5 yrs later it was the Intercity 125 engin.

Reminds me of when I worked at a bus yard; we came in early the first day after Christmas break and started every bus in the fleet. Generated about that much smoke.
I’m watching this and reminiscing about my commute from Didcot to Paddington, late 1970/1990s. The transition to HST 125 era. Wow! I never thought about how difficult it could be to start diesel locomotives. I’ve also seen a King, 6024?, whose tender was so full that if another lump of coal was put on, the lot would have gone. It was going to Bristol as a stand in for another steam locomotive that had failed. Happy days.

I know of a story which happend in (West) Germany. They ran extra Express trains from (iirc) the Ruhr erea to the coast in the holiday / vacation season. They ran 2 full sets (with added help) to the coast and one double length (now empty) back. But on one trip, the second engine broke, but they still had to run the train. So a single 01 class had to do the job (on a very thight schedule, even under normal sircumstances). They had boards which increased the coal capacity. Only adding one in height was allowed, they used two and still put a hump on it. They actually had to leave a notch in the coal to clear the overhead wires. (It was the transition era from coal to diesel/electric power)

Block heaters are a wonderful thing. A few KW of block heaters would save a lot on battery, starter and engine wear. All that unburnt fuel is washing down the cylinder walls and diluting the engine oil until the engine runs cleanly.

One pulling it with a large forklift inside a large shed, one in the drivers seat, and one hanging on for dear life spraying two full cans of ether into the intake. This was after two of us crawled under it with torches to thaw out the differentials and brake drums for a half hour. Once it was running good, it was left running the entire day.

Looking at how difficult it was to cold-start this thing - I'm surprised they didn't have an auxiliary hydronic block heater similar to how some work trucks/vans have an auxiliary diesel heater that's designed solely to heat up the block and coolant/heater core loops.

Not much different than the EMD GP-7 I had to start on Penn Central back in 1974. The engine had been shut down on Friday and I restarted it on Sunday. Friday was 19 degrees out but Sunday was near 20 and she started with a problem but until it warmed up it was extremely slow to accelerate and load up. First long string of auto racks I pulled she warmed up and boy was I glad to have the heat. Until it warmed up it laid down a smoke screen you could hide a destroyer in.
