Wow, amazingly costly this would be. Lets see, new mains, new endcaps, head/s would need milling at least a couple thousandths of an inch, and then you'd need a slightly thicker gasket. You'd have burnt valves all around.
The only way to really stop this from happening is to stop oil flow (going to kill the turbo or the motor probably) or to stop air flow (good luck! I suggest a very large, very strong board or steel plate across the intake)
this is out to all you people who think diesels are more dirty emmission wise than gas look up you facts a diesel engine has less emmissions than a gas hybrid all the black smoke is is unburnt fuel
@bowtie4ever96 Tech. that is not correct, a diesel engine emits a ton of hydrocarbons, however diesel engines are MUCH more efficient, so if everyone switched to diesel engines the world would be "greener".
On the other hand, if everyone who wasn't towing something switched to biodeisel, there would be much much MUCH less c02 and hydrocarbon emissions.

@Darksidethreefour Maybe that's true but diesel smells like crap, and diesel engines are very noisy. I can hear a diesel truck vibrating the ground from distances that I cannot detect gasoline engines. Did I mention how dirty the smell is? Ppl complain about me smoking outside b/c of the tine tiny smell, but they park diesels right where I stand and leave them running, ruining my break time. I really hate the smell.
@ratsdownstairs Nope, other way around. All the idiots should commit suicide. Since you volunteered with your idiotic statement you can be the first to go.
I don't understand why they don't put ball valves in the oil supply lines for the turbos that could be closed in this type of emergency. Better the turbo than the whole engine.
@MrShadowdemon666 There´re two different kinds of drivetrains to be mounted in diesel locos: First is hydraulic transmisson where the prime mover runs a gearbox similar to automatically shifted cars. Second- and used in the majority- is electric transmission > the diesel engine is connected with a generator. Every axle in the bogies has a single electric motor to be driven by in this way created power.

@MrShadowdemon666 not really, diesel and electric trains both in the end use electric motors to move. Diesels are just more free in where they can go and probably cheaper to operate because they don't have to put overhead lines in or a 3rd rail.
After watching our finest tetsudo (railway) on the planet (JR) Trains in America are so embarrassing! YOU MUST PURSUE ELECTRIFICATION!!! You wont have "burnouts" or runaway diesel engine! Its not possible to have a "runaway" electric motor!!! When will America ever learn? We have 95% electric 5% diesel. America is almost the other way around! GO ELECTRIC! PROBLEM SOLVED! SO SIMPLE! (Expensive? Initially yes! Long run? MUCH CHEAPER AND ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLY)!
modern american locomotives have alerter systems set up so that if a driver does not respond to a button or the controls, the train will stop itself. and before you yell at us for pollution, think, where does the electricity come from to power electric trains? It comes from dirty, power plants (there are very few hydroelectric, solar etc around) Besides, locomotives are very efficient nowadays, even more than pretty much every car or truck on the road with things such as dynamic braking
@electricrailwaygod You forget something man, America is a VERY big country, while electrification may work in Europe or Japan it won't work here outside of places like new england where everything is close together or California where environmental laws are super strict. No what America needs is steam pure and simple, taken as a whole they are probably cleaner than most diesels and even electric engines, (if they are running right all they put out is water vapor and hot air.)
@wolfs22 Well you need to refine the Oil first to get the Diesel, don't need to do that with coal, sides most electricity comes from COAL fired power plants anyways.
@MrFarmer110 You also forget something. It takes energy to make steam! That's why the coal fired steam engines are no longer used today is because they are very inefficient!
You also forget that it's hard to find fresh water. Many places in America limit water usage because there is not enough. And you just want to go evaporating it all? Filtering it is expensive. Desalinating ocean water takes tons of energy. If you want to run dirty water to evaporate have fun cleaning all the residue.
@Dereks06 I beg to differ on that, look up the work of engineer David Wardale, and L.D Porta, steam locomotives can be made MORE efficient than diesel, the main reason that steam was phased out was that oil was cheaper than coal, back in the 1950's and that diesel's were the 'new' thing, everybody wanted one. As to the water, yes some area's of the US are unsuited for large steam locomotive work, steam has been used for over a hundred years, I don't think they had filtration systems in 1850.
I think it is "running away", or burning its own engine oil, making the engine turn faster and faster RPMs until it either blows the engine and throws a rod or burns all its engine oil and seizes up. Either way, dead motor.
Oje, das ist wirklich eine s***** Situation!! Bei einem Auto mit Gangschaltung könnte man den hochdrehenden Motor bis in den Begrenzer hinein noch abwürgen, aber bei einer Diesellok geht das leider nicht.
Classic Diesel Engine run away. They run unitl they run out of oil, or lock up. Watched a SF Dash 8 FDL run at 1400 rpm for 20 minutes until it melted down. Crank Case explosion about 5 miutes later once fresh air entered CC.
A run away is caused by the engine running off of its own lubricating oil. On all of the run aways i've seen were caused by a failed labrynth (sp) seal on the turbo. If the seal is leaking badly it will flood the engine, but if it is leaking a little, the combination of the turbo pressure and the oil you get a runaway, and since there is not way to controll the oil the engine basically runs until it runs out of oil, Air, or locks up. I hope this helps
They should implement a type of co2 injector. When this happens you just spray Carbon Dioxide into the air intake and to screw up the Oxygen/fuel mixture enough to stop the engine.
They actually had them on Locomotives in the 80's. They called them "Slammers", but they would "Slam" shut for no reason. They were more trouble than they were worth. In the 20 years that I have been working on Loco diesels I have only been witness to two engine runaways.
heavy pollutants such as clag from diesel exhausts spends very little time in the air. Within about 30 minutes it will have settled on the ground due to the weight of the particles involved. Know your pollutants before declaring that they kill people.
@kylegordon um burning metal from inside the trains cylinders make carbon monoxide,and when it comes out the exhaust it dont fall back down--do you know your pollutants
@TEMPLE7D CO is clear and odourless. It's not the black soot that you can see in the video. CO will rise as you say, due to the molar mass being slightly less than that of normal air. However, CO isn't the only product coming out of that exhaust...
@TEMPLE7D - Carbon monoxide is manufactured by incomplete combustion of something containing carbon with insufficient oxygen to make carbon dioxide, not by "burning metal". The black particulate is almost straight carbon.
if you listen really careful you can hear the turbo cooler blow and then she starts to run away- thats an emd we had one do the same thing in a load test in the round house in st paul the fng-fun new guy decided to flip the ground fault relay and welded it to the rail ....
He couldn't of shut down the engine. It was sucking oil past the rings and started running on its own. It would of ran even if the fuel supply was shut off. I wonder what RPM it was running, 3000? I wish the video could of kept going.
More likely it could have had a turbo oil seal failure allowing engine oil to be blown into the engine letting it run away. Only way to shut down a run away diesel is to seal off the turbo inlet so no air can enter the engine but I wouldn't want to be near that thing in case it grenades itself. Detroit diesels were known to run away and I believe the had an emergency thing to cut the air supply to the engine.
Thats probably what caused the runaway, I have seen it happen on EMD's and Ge locos. Actually tried to stop one on a Ge FDL with card board over the fiter room door, but the summer winter door was open so she just kept right on chugging. You will never get the filter door open when they are past about run 3.
That looks alot to me like it had an older detroit in it, one that has its fuel metered by the pump, the thing broke, stuck open, and it ran away on itsself. Its the weirdest noise to hear an 11L diesel doing 4 or 5 grand.
wouldnt that actualy beak down or has a problem rather than CRASH. CRASH is more like destruction, damage, serios. all that u showed there was a busted up old engenie having a problem
gadeto you are right!!!! this happend to us on a sd 60 and the engine ran away from us then lost 3 rods out the right side of the engine you can see the same thing happen on locomotive explosion
Trains use less fuel per ton than trucks. This hurts oil companies and military suppliers that create more jobs than the rail industry. Vote NO to liberal fuel economy, oil alternatives, rail transit and environmental laws. Vote YES to jobs that only Republican leadership can bring back.
I looks like the turbocharger has a failure and sucks in the engine oil. Thats the reason why the engine begans to ran faster by itself, because it burns the engine oil and not more dieselfue: also the smoke comes from that. That can happen to every car engine too, you cannot stop it even if you shut down ignition. In most cases you got a crushed engine.
Diesel electric and hydraulic locomotives don't have gears and clutches. If this loco did, and you did what you just described, it would snap the drive shaft, or just melt the clutch! Best way to stop the engine is to use the emergency fuel cutoff.
Al Gore is a dumb ass who started a crusade against Global Warming. Which, mind you is completely natural. We just helped. Id like to see him force anyone to do anything these days....
look at the first of the clip, you can see the doors on the hood fly open as the smoke billows out. Looks like a engine overpressure that resulte in a inspection cover blowing off to me. Ive seen it befor on the big GE's..
This is what you get for letting the Germans drive your train.....

Trains use less fuel per ton than trucks. This hurts oil companies and military suppliers that create more jobs than the rail industry. Vote NO to liberal fuel economy, oil alternatives, rail transit and environmental laws. Vote YES to jobs that only Republican leadership can bring back.

I looks like the turbocharger has a failure and sucks in the engine oil. Thats the reason why the engine begans to ran faster by itself, because it burns the engine oil and not more dieselfue: also the smoke comes from that. That can happen to every car engine too, you cannot stop it even if you shut down ignition. In most cases you got a crushed engine.

Well, only way to stop engine is put fifth gear and release the clutch.

lol clutch lol

Diesel electric and hydraulic locomotives don't have gears and clutches. If this loco did, and you did what you just described, it would snap the drive shaft, or just melt the clutch! Best way to stop the engine is to use the emergency fuel cutoff.

Al Gore is a dumb ass who started a crusade against Global Warming. Which, mind you is completely natural. We just helped. Id like to see him force anyone to do anything these days....

look at the first of the clip, you can see the doors on the hood fly open as the smoke billows out. Looks like a engine overpressure that resulte in a inspection cover blowing off to me. Ive seen it befor on the big GE's..
