Don What We Are Talking About Is A 2cycle Diesel Engine .
Read The Specks Above.

 

That's allright, I'm more of a steam fan. Had my share of 2 cycles in the service. Drink about as much oil as fuel...

 

Yeah I saw that, most of the locomotive diesel I've worked on are 2 strokers too, some of the GE's are 4

Thanks Red!

I'm the opposite, I'm a big diesel locomotive fan but I do love to see a nice steam locomotive in action. My favorite diesels are Electro-motive SD45's with the 20 cylinder 645E Turbo engine in them, they sound so cool at full throttle.

 

Got a few vids uploaded to my photobucket, dunno if they will work but i'm gonna post them still.

 

Good morning all.

Nice pictures Matt! You two make a nice looking couple... she must off-set your ugliness or something. J/K!

Don likes the steam better because he's closer in age to them.

Here's your history;
On this day in 1844 - The gasoline engine was patented by Stuart Perry.

1927 - Ford Motor Company announced that the Model A would replace the Model T.

1977 - An opinion piece by Vietnam veteran Jan Scruggs appeared in "The Washington Post." The article called for a national memorial to "remind an ungrateful nation of what it has done to its sons" that had served in the Vietnam War.

I have to go look at a hydraulic power pack I built a few years ago and see why it isn't creating hydraulic power.

chaikwa.

 

It's broke!!!... Sheesh, all you had to do was ask.

Morning all. It's another gray, wet morning. Guess I'll have to take it easy today, oh well.

 

I am learning to be thankful for those kinds of days. Tiime to do stuff I never do because I am too busy - - like read, or grab a few rays, or smell a flower or go sit on the beach at sundown. Try it.

Yep, that's what I thought. Don't know the meaning of MAN.

My saved link would not bring me in at all. Just thought the site was down. Tried again today - - same thing, took me to some weird site. Did a search, picked up our URL and popped me right in. Checked the old URL and it read exactly as the new one. Now that is weird.

Anyhow, some MAN made the ph00, so I grabbed a cup and going back to work. Have fun.
