    Compilation of train videos taken during my stay in Copenhagen, Denmark, featuring DSB Metro, S-Train, IC3, X31K öresundståg and Class ME diesel electric locomotives. The audio has been edited to highlight the changing pitch of the prime mover of these trains.

    As of December 2021, all the ME diesel-electric and EA electric locomotives have been replaced by Siemens Vectron electric locomotives. So no more big diesel-electric locomotives underground. The MF (IC3) and the few MG (IC4) that still work will however continue to run until 2025+, likely longer as the electrification of west Denmark is taking far longer than it should

    A little sidenote about the MF gearbox - it jumps every other gear until 8 or 9, so for example, it would shit 1-3-5-7-9-10-11-12 or 2-4-6-8-9-10-11-12.

      The IC3 (MF) trains were originally outfitted with a 6-speed automatic transmission, but this got replaced with the 12-speed manual transmission they have today when DSB switched out the powerpacks in 2005-2006.

      @@olesrensen7819 seems to be using the automated manual 12 speed zf transmission used in trucks. Usually happens because the 6 speed fully auto zf can’t handle high horsepower / torque. Wonder why they didn’t use a Voith transmission as used in the UK for its diesel units.

    The class ME diesel-electric locomotive has the prime mover used in numerous locomotives from the USA. It's a 2-stroke engine with a turbocharger that is gear-driven at lower speeds, and it has an override clutch that lets the turbo spool up by it's own when there is enough exhaust pressure to do so.
    They are also a "uniflow" design - there are NO intake valves, only exhaust valves, of which there are 4 per cylinder. Intake air comes through ports on the side walls of the cylinders.
    These are also somewhat big engines, compared to some other locomotive engines, as they do not rev as high - only up to 900RPM. But of course, they make more torque.
    One interesting note: These engines do not have a cast engine block! The engine block is made from welded steel. The precursor designs were originally meant to be used in war ships around WWII, because the welded steel frame can better withstand the shock from a torpedo blast, compared to a cast iron engine block. And because it is welded, it is somewhat easy to repair if there is a catastrophic failure while in voyage (on a ship, obviously).
    The original engines actually used a blower instead of a turbocharger, giving them a distinct operating noise as well.
