The class 50 has a reputation for sustained heavy smoking exhausts on start up, a preserved railway had a 50 with a shed in a town centre, the railway agreed not to start up the 50 on shed due to the complaints from the public, it would be hauled somewhere else on the line for the startup.

That white smoke is unburned diesel fuel. The starter is cycling the engine to warm the combustion chambers. Only when you hear the cylinders popping and the smoke changing colors are the cylinders coming on line. They are rarely if ever shut down as long as this old girl was.
Does anyone have any problems with their PD engine messing up the oil really quickly? I think it's because oil pressure is used to activate the injectors, and the oil pressure for that is astronomical!
I wish I could of worked on those old engines love them. Only has a BTEC level 2, but would have had the trust me time for a Diesel Engine on Trains. Love them
Fantastic diesel engine! So Clean Running! Well! It's white smoke! Fantastic pulling machine sure if it's looked after it would never ever stop running
Believe me, cold start up of an SNCF CC72000 is worse. I lived in a railwayman's hostel overlooking the stabling point at Nancy a few years ago. At 3am one winter morning I was woken up not by the noise but by the stink of diesel fumes even though the window was closed!

I used to rebuild marine Diesels and I laterally have no idea how or why any Diesel would struggle that much to start, and I've started them with blow lamps !
This is typical for an English Electric on a cold morning. Only barely enough compression to fire at all, no glowplugs of any kind. She cranks until a few cylinders start to hit, and then those cylinders keep the engine turning as it gradually warms up and comes alive. Eventually the driver revvs it slightly to get the last few cylinders firing and the engine ready to pull.
GBRF have just done a tie up with the 50 fund & 50007 & 50049 are due to emerge from Eastleigh works in full GBRF cols, they are used on railtours & odds & sods stuff really. They are doing a railtour from London - Penzance & back this coming Saturday
All though very cool and great sounds, I do not understand why diesal trains do not just start up like other diesal vehicals like my van, turn the key and off you go, what is with the 10 minute startup?
Cold 16 cylinder low compression engine (about 10 inch diameter pistons) with no glow plugs or pre-heater relying on compression for engine heat to ignite the diesel, that's why it's a 1 cylinder at a time until it's warmed through until all 16 are merrily firing!
Love the EMT goons in a flap over a bit of clag John ! Good job I wasnt there with my jump leads 'ala 20142 and 37240' if you remember all those years ago John !!!
The driver takes his finger off the button around 1 min 50 if you look at him. So after that it slowly picks up by itself until most of its 16 cylinders are firing! As for taking power I'd have thought it'd need to warm up for a while!
The driver takes his finger off the start button at 1 minute 50 secs in the video where the engine is just about self sustaining on about half of its 16 cylinders, most of the other cylinders then start to fire as the engine picks up speed on its own slowly! From pressing the start button up until the driver releases it at 1 minute 50 the loco's generator is motoring the engine over from the locos batteries. Hope that helps!
This Loco is in need of repair, head gaskets injectors etc, i worked with these engines for 10 years as a Shunter at Penzance, and the class 50 Locos would cover 1000 miles in 24 hours every day. Penzance to Paddington, Padd to Birmingham, then to Oxford, then Swansea, back to Padd, then Penzance. This one isn't the norm.
If you look the driver takes his finger off the start button at 1 minute 50 on the video & the revs drop slightly before slightly recovering where it's just about self sustaining. Yes unburnt diesel vapour most of it
I remember when this loco was a nice interesting green with a black and gold line down the center and lovely black 'n' brass number plates and name plate...."SIR EDWARD ELGAR"
Yes that's exactly what happened they came flapping with their walkie-talkies thinking it was on fire! The driver was stood cool as a cucumber next to me watching them before they enquired if it had a driver with it!
Reminds me of my Scania V8 143-420 back in the day. It stood like this on a cold winter day for a long time. So i drew the handthrottle back(yes they had one back in the days) and went to shower before I'd take off. Came out, and the poor cold 14,3 liter Scania engine was revving at 2000 rpm. That really hurt me. But no, the engine took no damage. Pew
So . . . at what point did this engine start running under its own power? When did the starter disengage? And how can you tell? I usually don't consider it running under its own power until I hear it rev up. But clearly that is not the case. Anyone? Anyone?
At 1 minute 50 seconds you can see the driver release the start button and the engine revs drop slightly then eventually one by one most of the other 16 cylinders start firing which is enough for it to become self sustained
Daft question but I'm not a train afficianado so forgive me. What is the white smoke? Is that unburned diesel? It looks rather like steam. If it is unburned fuel wouldn't everything end up coated in diesel?
that's kind of the way to do it. you see that with my old Chevy in the dead of winter get it going after it did a little starting die a few times crank over crank over once and it was going to stay running and warm up walk back inside have a couple coffee
Around the 4 minute mark the driver exits the cab. So the engine was awake enough to keep itself going by that point, it just only had some of its cylinders firing and was not yet ready for work. It wouldn't be ready until closer to the 8 minute mark when the driver returns and revvs it gently to get the last few cylinders hot and clear the smoke.
8 minutes & 37 seconds after start it was still smoking like hell ( vid did stop at that moment) what kind of a wreck is this ? - or is that just normal & business as usual ( at British rail ) ?? How long ago was it that this engine did receive maintenance ( and what did they actually do then ) ? air filters ? injectors, valves ?? what compression does it still have ?... just wondering..

Don't worry, it's just liters of oil burning up. It moisturizes your respiratory system.
More like line oil companies pockets with money. U can burn anything to make steam
Clearly you've never seen a steam locomotive working hard. Enormous black clouds of soot and bits of unburned coal.
