  • Well this is something you don't see everyday! After waiting patiently for the NTWDIL manifest to depart Northtown with a BN Green Sd40-2 survivor leading, I was in for one big surprise. As the train approached Coon Creek, it immediately went into emergency. As the conductor went back to inspect the train and the other units, he apparently found no serious issues as the train was able to get on the move about 10 minutes later, even with the firestorm on the 3rd unit.

    I cannot tell if the smoke is grey or grey/blue. Given the sparks, I presume he is just burning off carbon buildup which is a normal situation especially if the locomotive is seeing high throttle for the first time in a while. The grey smoke would go along with that pretty well. If the smoke had a more blue tint, it would mean the engine is burning oil, indicative of a failed turbo (actually) or another failure allowing oil to burn in the engine. Sparks in the exhaust would not go along with that kind of failure.

    1964 is one of my favorite sd40s to work on besides the MRL sd40s. Was in Glendive for months. The 1905 was sent east for maintenance after it sat in the laurel roundhouse for a month with mechanical issues. It began working the bottom of the west lead in laurel yard this morning.

      And the 1964 is back in Glendive. It was gone for a week or so, now I know where it went. I did catch the 1905 and 54 as they were heading east through here, but missed it on the return trip west. I will definitely have to roll by the Laurel yard on my way to the Livingston/Helena Railfair weekend the 26th!

    The SD40-2 shooting the flames out the stack looks like it is paired with the slug following it. Those are usually used in yard or hump service. I bet the guys in Dilworth will be happy to get that set.

      It’s back in laurel, believe it went east for maintenance. That slug and the 1905 has had issues for weeks and has just been sitting in the roundhouse, I believe I saw it on the lead today.

    A true "railfan"...
    An engine goes by, spewing flames, and he keeps focused on the rolling stock behind it.

    Too hot of an exhaust manifold, and too much unburned fuel, probably due to a very rich mixture...
