startup sound

[Anonymous]

I've been googling and only found one good sound of Alco startup.
Anyone know any specific links where I can find sounds of different engines startup and other engine sounds too?

thanks for the great link.

I'm suprized there aren't more EMD and GE recordings, since these are so common these days.

I hear EMD starting up at about 7:30 am almost every morning because I pass near the back of the station, but I don't know where my head is and where my***is that early in the morning, so I never recorded it.
I love the sound, like a giant vacuum cleaner being turned on, then it goes into a wild turbo whine, then down to the normal whine.
