[quote]And boy, there is nothing like an EMD starting up...<BR>First the Whooaah...whooahh...whoooaahh....whoooeeeeiiiiii-way up in the sky...then falls down, then a couple of strugling whee-whees..and up to the idle sound.[/quote] You can say that again. I heard a apir of GP38-2s fire up. When the starters were engaged, the prime movers barely turned at all, then picked up just a little speed, you hear the very faint chugging of a 645, and then a little blue smoke, then more smoke and then ROAR and those 645s are running and they settle into an idle- chug chug chug chug chug
