This is a T466.2 built by CKD in Prague. According to ZOS Zvolen, a company who rebuilds these locomotives, the prime mover is a K 6 S 230 DR also built at CKD; it is a supercharged 6-cylinder 4-stroke diesel with 230mm X 260mm bore and stroke, and produces 880kW/1180hp at 1250 rpm.
@Przemek Mańkowski They probably made that design to achieve the lowest cost of manufacturing it, purely utility. Everything has the right to be ugly but, that Locomotive is abusing that right (or at least exercising the HELL out of it).
The fire is caused by unburnt diesel being blown into the exhaust manifold from the cylinders that aren't firing and subsequently being ignited by the exhaust gasses from the cylinders that are firing.

ChME-2 is russian term for czech T458.1. This one is ČKD made line 740 which has never been exported to Soviet union, only to Poland. This one serves in Slovakia.
I believe the sound is part of the engine warming up and getting proper compression. When these huge engines are cold started, they don't exactly fire on all cylinders; hence all of the smoke which is unburned fuel. As the piston rings seat the piston begins to come alive and combust properly, which revs the engine higher and the smoke will disappear for a second or two, as more cylinders come online this happens more and more until it's fully started.
Not as uncommon as you might think for older diesels. Alco 539's would do the same on cold days. It comes from raw fuel laying in the exhaust manifold and being lit by stray sparks. Its likely a product of a huge piston and relatively primitive injection along with very cold intake air temps.

Back in the early 1970's I knew a Guy Big J4T tractor unit with a 220bhp Rolls Royce engine used send a flame out of the exhaust when pulling very hard TBH you could only really see it at night. Many thanks for posting.
Thank you. I find most locomotive videos interesting. It matters not to me where this locomotive originated, starting of a diesel can be challenging.

Man that's some serious engine knocking! All kidding aside, there is something about the sound of a huge old diesel engine starting up, that well, sounds awesome.
the reason we seen fire coming out the exhaust is due to fuel not burning right or burning at all in some of the cylinders. that is why when diesels start up cold you hear a popping noise, that is the excess fuel in the cylinders not firing right or at all do to very little to no heat, until enough heat is made internally. once all the pistons are doing their equal share than it will sound uniform like the end of the video. if you would like to know more just ask
Justin Martin Valves are not adjusted, but it's normal for those engines. They are knocking like this since they left the factory. It doesn't even matter, because they will run forever.

Well, 1st - it's a ChME2, in Soviet Union Classification, ChME3 has Co'-Co' Axes. And 2'nd - this loco not in Russia, you can see web link of transport company.
studený motor po teplotu 5 stupňů celsia už jsem taky bral takovou lokomotivu a je to docela mazec . Motor ČKD má rád min. 20 stupňů celsia na start a na jízdu min 50 stupňů celsia
Dva dni dozadu som sa rozpraval s kamošom mechanikom z Ruska a povedal mi že tie plamene šlahajú len pri štarte a pri zmene teplôt pri štarte ,ale čo to spôsobuje mi neodpovedal ,pravdepodobne palivo vstreknuté do injectora v studenej komore exploduje až neskôr po vymrštení z boxu ,neviem to určite ,ale je to zaujímavé
Chme2 je ekvivalent 721, 740/742 (na tomto videu asi 740 549), pokiaľ viem, neboli exportované do bývalého ZSSR. Inak nesmelo tipujem, že 310-tkový motor by mal rýchlejší štart, pokiaľ by bol v dobrom stave.
этот локомотив нет ЧМЭ2, здесь показан в общем аналогичный локомотив, но с другим двигателем (К6С230ДР, диаметр цилиндра 230 мм). Это локомотив типа 740, ЧМЭ2 - в Чехии и Словакии типа 721. В России до сих пор используется ЧМЭ2, но это, наверное, редкость. Есть актуальные видео.
Unburned fuel accmulates in the exhauster headers. Fairly common. I was on a Rio Grande Scenic train a few years ago in Colorado and it would spit a tongue of flame 20' in the air every time the engineer increased the throttle.
It's piston slap, essentially when the engine is cold the Piston and rings haven't made a tight seal in the bore, therefore, grey smoke as the oil that is passing the piston and into the combustion chamber burns off. Goes away once the engine reaches operating temperature and the tolerances close up. When the engine is old, the pistons can slap about in the bore all the time which speeds up engine wear and will end up causing other more serious damage.
Southern Pacific AC4400's were notorious for blowing 6' flames. They were turned up for max HP output. Power plants didn't like them pulling through the rotary dump houses. They were afraid of coal dust fires.
what mehendricks said below is correct, also the engine needs the carbon cleaned out. Put it under heavy load for an hour pulling something heavy, and it will run good too. This type of loco appears to be a switcher so it does lots of short, light runs, perfect for carbon fouling.
This is something most old diesels do in extremely cold weather. That is why NS and CSX does not shut down their engines in cold weather, but let them idle in the yards for overnight.
***** How does that make you sick.. Did it give you a head ache. Heart attack.. Or did you get herpes from the Engineer. Please be more specific on your ailment.
It doesn't waste much, if any(depending on climate especially). Big diesel trucks have big turbos so the truck has to run half an hour or more to cool it off before shutting down. Then when the trunk gets restarted, esp. in the cold, it has to run a good long time to warm up(very damaging to drive it with a heavy load while cold, and actually more damage to start it cold than driving hundreds or even thousands of miles, again, depending on temps) and while it's cold it's pumping out a LOT more pollution and using a LOT more diesel fuel than while idling hot. So what little fuel and pollution you save is tiny, and the driver then needs to rent a room to stay in. The more that did that the more rooms would be built with all of that pollution(logging, making lumber and other materials, transportation, lots of transportation, building, waste disposal, ongoing maintenance, electrical, gas, oil use to keep temps in unused rooms etc) And the truck drivers are using the fuel to power their "room" turning it into a big generator. It's not just idling all night doing nothing. So, no, not so bad. And probably a lot better than building more rooms to stay in.
Most locomotives have had Smart Start installed. It monitors coolant temperatures, air pressure, and battery voltage. If they are at acceptable levels, then the system shuts down the diesel. If any of the parameters gets low, a restart is initiated.

***** Ok sorry, I have not read such technical data that is listed below the video. I am a fan of the railroad and the locomotive know. I'm just here to say that the engine is not from Russia. Once again, I apologize. ...;) Sorry for my English, I can not just English, we learn helps me translate google.
because its a cold start, that happens all the time... there are numerous vids like this on utube... type: diesel locomotive cold start... and watch :)
Flames are not uncommon during a cold start in very cold temperatures when the engine is not pre-heated (it happens in Britain). When the engine comes to life, it is not running an all cylinders. Therefore, raw diesel begins to accumulate in the exhaust system. As more cylinders began firing, the exhaust temperature increases to the point where the diesel in the exhaust will spontaneously ignite and burn off. When the engine warms up, the smoke will clear. I can hear what may be a big-end knock.
Smoke is from Trying to start on one cylinder ,the engines cold start device was pumping excess fuel in ,I can hear other cylinders popping as they almost burn it. . The flames were just the result of excess fuel in the muffler burning. Engine probably needs a set of new piston rings to get the compression up and make starting easier.
I've seen this before.... I was kayaking by a rail bridge in Thunder Bay, ON and while the train was powering up it blue flames at least 3-5 meters above the stack!
Za prvé, jak tato položka již elektrifikována, nemá smysl v používání tohoto lok. Pokud jde o motor, někdo nechal číslo dvě dekompresní páku aktivovat! (To platí otevřený výfukový ventil část tak, aby coÏ usnadní startování. To, proč to všechno "clag" na tomto jednom válci a comustion přes výfukovém potrubí a atmosférou. Poznámka: poslední výstřel, žádný clag jak jsem suppse řidič konečně vzpomněl na uzavření (deaktivovat) uvolnění dekomprese. (Vznětový motor musí být opraven a prodán na někoho (jako pro mě) pro námořní použití a z použití železniční!) IU zjistili, že většina lidí v železničním průmyslu nevím, správné zacházení s dieselmotors, který zodpovídá za takové špatné údrzba těchto motorů! V odvětví železniční dopravy musí jít úplně ELEKTRICKÉ!
BTW This is called flame diesel. Occurs when overheated diesel at higher rpm a diesel engine and its faults. The same flame diesel engine occurs at low rpm (as in this video).
This locomotive from their date of production to the year 1992, were used only in Czechoslovakia and after the divide they were used mostly in Czech Republic and Slovakia to the present. Sometimes they are visible at the neighbour countries used by private rail operators. So they were not used in the Soviet Union.
it has slovak web address on the side, made in czechoslovakia. and thats no fail what youve seen, its sending diagnostic data to the party via cloud/s, fire is just DPF cleaning.
This locomotive was made by Czechoslovakia for USSR - it is named CHME-3. I worked at this kind of locomotive. It is really good locomotive. Somebody says that it doesn't sound healthy...hoh...it sounds like this at the beginning, when all the system is cold. U can see that at the end of this movie there is no smoke and "bad sound" - that mean that the engine and all the systems are ready for work.
No, this is not a Chme3. These locos weren't made for USSR, hence they have no Chme- marking - they are 740 in Slovakia and Czechia, or 448p in Poland. They are smaller, they have also smaller engine than Chme3 (Chme3 - 6 valves with bore 310 mm, 993 kW; this loco - 6 valves with bore 230 mm, 883 kw)
Well your partially right there but the thing is some old diesel locomotives, like at railway Museums in the US have been know to do it as well as newer locomotives as well. It is more common on older locomotives during a cold start due to either age or more often other factors. I work at a museum and have seen a locomotive belch a lot of smoke during a cold start before but without fire though.
Very interesting video. Basically, it is lighting unburned fuel in the exhaust system due to incomplete combustion. I have seen huge fires come out of large diesels, but it is usually due to poor tuneup (something awry) or like shown here the cylinders are cold and not all of them are firing yet. The cylinders that don't fire simply pump air and hot fuel vapor into the exhaust manifold to be lit by the firing cylinder. Still makes a cool video!
The flames will either be down to unburnt fuel carry-over going into the exhaust ports, or cold-start ether. From the 'clonking' going on by one cylinder, my guess is that it is ether injected into the inlet manifold which is not getting to all cylinders. This engine sounds as though it is seriously down on compression hence its reluctance to start.up, a result of using ether to start them because the very high pressure damages the rings.
This is a T466.2 built by CKD in Prague. According to ZOS Zvolen, a company who rebuilds these locomotives, the prime mover is a K 6 S 230 DR also built at CKD; it is a supercharged 6-cylinder 4-stroke diesel with 230mm X 260mm bore and stroke, and produces 880kW/1180hp at 1250 rpm.
One owner! Well treated, garage kept! Only a slight knock on cold starts. No low-ballers!
what is this 2011 business
Don’t they knock anyway even though it ain’t cold start? I’m not hating or anything I’m just asking.
The flowing smooth lines of the design is what I appreciate.

It s not Russian or LAtvian locom. Its Czech loko T466 with engine K6S270DR where K= compersor, 6 = cylinder, 270 mm = diameter cylinder and DR = railway ("drazni" in czech)
Now is new number of locomotive CD 742. (Btw. Čau :D )

Ivanům zkurvenejm akorát nasrat do pazour, to řikám porád a na tom trvám. Stačí se podívat na toho Kocoura chudáka v jakym je zbědovanym stavu a za takovejhle start bych tomu Rusákovi co s tim jezdí utrhal pazoury a ještě ho s nima ztřískal. Jsem dalek toho nazývat tohle stvoření mašinfírou.
mefistofeles666111 Jo no, ať si jezdí svejma lokomotivama a ne českejma.
mefistofeles666111 Asi s tím neumí vůbec jezdit a startovat motor.

Najeť si nějaký video jak se jezdí v Rusku. Těch aut co zničej je přímo neuvěřitelný. :-D
Great Video. Diesel Locomotive cold start with smokes out and shoot fire.
No russia locomotive . Made in czechoslovakia . Locomotive 742 . cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lokomotiva_742
Lukko Valda Read description!

Ok sorry, I have not read such technical data that is listed below the video. I am a fan of the railroad and the locomotive know. I'm just here to say that the engine is not from Russia. Once again, I apologize. ...;) Sorry for my English, I can not just English, we learn helps me translate google.
No problem, I understand. Thanks for helping me understand why people don't read before making comments. Have a great day.
That sound you hear is the engineer hammering away - trying to wake up the hamsters on their wheels.
engine is shagged !.... unburnt fuel being ignited ... engine was running on one cylinder for ages .
because its a cold start, that happens all the time... there are numerous vids like this on utube... type: diesel locomotive cold start... and watch :)
This is what I like. What a sound! A beautifull old, honest, true, smoking diesel engine! A good diesel smoke's!!
HEAP OF JUNK!!
Flames are not uncommon during a cold start in very cold temperatures when the engine is not pre-heated (it happens in Britain). When the engine comes to life, it is not running an all cylinders. Therefore, raw diesel begins to accumulate in the exhaust system. As more cylinders began firing, the exhaust temperature increases to the point where the diesel in the exhaust will spontaneously ignite and burn off. When the engine warms up, the smoke will clear. I can hear what may be a big-end knock.
wtf czech lokomotive
reminder of the times we had our own heavy industry and big companies :(
It's got a nice beat and you can dance to it!
русские любят чужие заслуги себе присваивать
Glad to hear it stopped hammering after it got warmed up!
You're voting, that's a good thing! I speak four languages in total (five if you includ a dialect ;-)). Thanks by the way for the video, it's great!
Thank you, Mr. Smart , without your comments I could not live .
Smoke is from Trying to start on one cylinder ,the engines cold start device was pumping excess fuel in ,I can hear other cylinders popping as they almost burn it. . The flames were just the result of excess fuel in the muffler burning. Engine probably needs a set of new piston rings to get the compression up and make starting easier.
I've seen this before.... I was kayaking by a rail bridge in Thunder Bay, ON and while the train was powering up it blue flames at least 3-5 meters above the stack!
wow
Za prvé, jak tato položka již elektrifikována, nemá smysl v používání tohoto lok. Pokud jde o motor, někdo nechal číslo dvě dekompresní páku aktivovat! (To platí otevřený výfukový ventil část tak, aby coÏ usnadní startování. To, proč to všechno "clag" na tomto jednom válci a comustion přes výfukovém potrubí a atmosférou.
Poznámka: poslední výstřel, žádný clag jak jsem suppse řidič konečně vzpomněl na uzavření (deaktivovat) uvolnění dekomprese. (Vznětový motor musí být opraven a prodán na někoho (jako pro mě) pro námořní použití a z použití železniční!)
IU zjistili, že většina lidí v železničním průmyslu nevím, správné zacházení s dieselmotors, který zodpovídá za takové špatné údrzba těchto motorů! V odvětví železniční dopravy musí jít úplně ELEKTRICKÉ!
Nothing better than some fire out of the stack
BTW
This is called flame diesel. Occurs when overheated diesel at higher rpm a diesel engine and its faults. The same flame diesel engine occurs at low rpm (as in this video).
This locomotive from their date of production to the year 1992, were used only in Czechoslovakia and after the divide they were used mostly in Czech Republic and Slovakia to the present. Sometimes they are visible at the neighbour countries used by private rail operators. So they were not used in the Soviet Union.
All loco specs in description, thanks.
I had a mk 2 Cortina that did the same thing. Did you mean breathes not breaths? Cool video.;-)
Super!! looks like our TGM4 loco ;))
Super
it has slovak web address on the side, made in czechoslovakia. and thats no fail what youve seen, its sending diagnostic data to the party via cloud/s, fire is just DPF cleaning.
They have to be careful not attempting to start it under a bridge!
Thats a nice cold start lot of clag !
Sounds exactly like my old Ford 6.9 Diesel starting up at minus 40 degrees.
The flame and loud knock is from the either injection used to start it up
This locomotive was made by Czechoslovakia for USSR - it is named CHME-3. I worked at this kind of locomotive. It is really good locomotive. Somebody says that it doesn't sound healthy...hoh...it sounds like this at the beginning, when all the system is cold. U can see that at the end of this movie there is no smoke and "bad sound" - that mean that the engine and all the systems are ready for work.
Bullshits and nothing more.
No, this is not a Chme3. These locos weren't made for USSR, hence they have no Chme- marking - they are 740 in Slovakia and Czechia, or 448p in Poland. They are smaller, they have also smaller engine than Chme3 (Chme3 - 6 valves with bore 310 mm, 993 kW; this loco - 6 valves with bore 230 mm, 883 kw)
That thing must have one hell of a starter motor on it.
from past 15 years it's spitting 🔥.. wat u sneaking
The starting sound is excellent its a good model
It's so mesmerizing, usually I only watch cars, but do you allow me to use a part of your video? I will credit you, of course.
Well your partially right there but the thing is some old diesel locomotives, like at railway Museums in the US have been know to do it as well as newer locomotives as well. It is more common on older locomotives during a cold start due to either age or more often other factors. I work at a museum and have seen a locomotive belch a lot of smoke during a cold start before but without fire though.
Very interesting video. Basically, it is lighting unburned fuel in the exhaust system due to incomplete combustion. I have seen huge fires come out of large diesels, but it is usually due to poor tuneup (something awry) or like shown here the cylinders are cold and not all of them are firing yet. The cylinders that don't fire simply pump air and hot fuel vapor into the exhaust manifold to be lit by the firing cylinder. Still makes a cool video!
cool vid and sound,nice one,cheers from germany
Don't care where it's from ----- damn good battery, or other cranking unit.
В сознании многих иностранцев если что-то большое, тяжелое и страшное - значит русское :)
In indonesia we call those things "kobong"
The flames will either be down to unburnt fuel carry-over going into the exhaust ports, or cold-start ether. From the 'clonking' going on by one cylinder, my guess is that it is ether injected into the inlet manifold which is not getting to all cylinders. This engine sounds as though it is seriously down on compression hence its reluctance to start.up, a result of using ether to start them because the very high pressure damages the rings.
