These locomotives dont have turbos.... they have a root style supercharger. We have them at Amtrak

A high hood unit Nice! Alot more head room in the crapper! LOL

Gotta love non turbo units

After seeing this one for a second time I got more questions then I did after watching it the first time.

@Weiberts You'd think that... but a long time ago, CSX had a GP38-2 on a siding with the cab doors left open... and no crew around. It was stolen... apparently started up and driven down their mainline and found miles down the way parked on another siding...

Why don't they put the starting switch up in the cab? Also, I saw in one of these that when the engineer went back to start the second unit on the fly there was no one at all in the cab. Is that allowed? Is there a timer?
