@@voidjavelin23I’ve watched Alco S2s from the CNJ, Chestnut Ridge, New Jersey Zinc and Black River and Western’s RS1 and none of them smoked like the RS1 in this video. The Buchi turbos didn’t smoke as much as the turbos used on the 244 and 251 series prime movers. Love the Hancock air whistle, I only ever heard them on units from the Minneapolis Northfield and Southern. The FRA outlawed them because they weren’t loud enough.
The New Haven Rs1 has one of the best paint schemes form when it was built
Nice i was there like a month ago
What causes it to smoke so bad?
turbo lag, its very common on any ALCo product locomotives like RS-1 and others due to their large single turbo design
