*Dual GE 16cyl FDL (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The GE FDL-16 prime mover was first used in 1959 in the General Electric U25B locomotive. Over the years little changed in terms of sound until the "Dash-8" series of GE locomotives was introduced. Known for their throaty chug and shaft driven compressor (rather than the more modern “Whoop” electric compressor).
Essentially 2 U25Bs built on a single frame, the U50 was designed to replace the turbines on UP. Using scrapped Turbine frames 2 FDL 16 Prime movers were put together creating a 5000 horsepower locomotive nicked named "Baby Hueys"

*EMD 20cyl 645E3 (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The EMD 645 family of diesel engines were designed and manufactured by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors. The 645 series was an evolution of the earlier 567 series and a precursor to the later 710 series. The 645 series engines entered production in 1965. All 645 engines utilize forced induction, with either a Roots blower or a turbocharger. The 645 series has a maximum engine speed of between 900 and 950 revolutions per minute (rpm), an increase over the 800 to 900 rpm maximum speed for the 567 series.
While only a few operating examples exist today, the 20cyl 645E3 was often found in the following locomotives:
SD45

*Dual EMD 16cyl 645E3A (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The Dual EMD 16cyl 645E3A prime movers were used in Union Pacific's DDA40X locomotive. Each of the two prime mover provides 3,300 hp. The DDA40X is the most powerful single-unit locomotive ever built.
As the DDA40X program was a test, a number of experiments were conducted during the service life of these locomotives. One such test included fitting a few of the units with air raid sirens to warn track-side personnel when away from grade crossings, but the results were inconclusive. Another of the tests included successful modular electrical components. This made for easier diagnosis of electrical problems. These modifications were used in all future locomotive units built by EMD. All DDA40X units included a new load test circuit, allowing units to load test without a track-side load test box. Gearing was 59:18, allowing 80 mph on passenger trains.

The emd 645 series was an evolution of the earlier 567 series and a precursor to the later 710 series. When the 645 prime mover entered production in 1965, a large series of new locomotive models was introduced. The turbocharged version was used in EMD's 40 Series (GP40, SD40 and SD45) in 3,000 horsepower (2,200 kW), sixteen-cylinder form and in 3,600 horsepower (2,700 kW), twenty-cylinder form. EMD also introduced the Roots-blown 38 Series (GP38, SD38) and turbocharged, twelve-cylinder 39 Series (GP39, SD39). All of these locomotive models extensively share common components and subsystems, thereby significantly reducing cost and increasing interchangeability. The GP38-2 and SD40-2 became the most popular models of the series and among the most popular locomotive models ever built.
This 16cyl 645E3 with Turbo sound file would be appropriate for the following locomotives:
GP40
GP40P

*ALCO 6cyl 539T (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The ALCO 539 engine was developed in response to the perceived drawback that ALCO's line of diesel switchers had a restricted field of vision because of the high hood. Both Baldwin and EMC were offering diesel switchers with a lower engine hood that the trainmen could see over.
The 539T was equipped with the Buchi turbocharger, being made under license by the Elliott Manufacturing Company of Jeannette, Pennsylvania. The first 539T engines were used in S-2 switchers and DL-105 passenger locomotives built in September 1940.

*EMD 16cyl 567BC (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The EMD 567 16cyl Prime Mover was one of the most widely used Prime Movers in the world! From F-Units to Geeps this popular power house can still be found in many locomotives riding the rails today.
We have provided 2 versions of the prime mover in the sound file.
With Transition and without Manual Transition!
Transition is the process by which the transmission of a diesel-electric locomoitve is brought from series wiring to parallel wiring. When in series, all current in the locomotive pass through all motors: this produces maximum low-speed force in the motors, i.e., maximum starting torque. When in parallel, current is divided among the motors: this produces maximum high-end efficency, i.e., highest motor speed. In the Early EMD 567 prime movers this could be done manually. There was a throttle lever and a transition lever on the control stands. When the engineer made transition there was a very distinct sounds of the prime mover winding down to idle then up again quickly from Idle to the throttle notch. Not all locomotives can make transition -- yard locomotives are often wired only for series. Also many locomotives were equipped with automatic transitions that occured at a high rate of speed. This classic sound of "Manual Transition" is not heard in these engines the same way as it is in the early 567s. In Fact, it is best to check your prototype as this manual transistion sound could arguably be stated to be wrong for more than it is right for! Due to this fact we have made our sound with the ability to switch between these options so you can have the proper prime mover sounds for your prototype. By simply changing 1 CV (CV 48) you can choose one or the other.
As with All Select sound files this contains up to 16 different Horns, including so newly edited ones!
This LokSound Select file contains two versions of the prime mover:
Prime mover #1 (CV48=0) features a "EMD 567BC 16cyl with Normal Transition"
Prime mover #2 (CV48=16) features a "EMD 567BC 16cyl with Manual"

*GE 12cyl 7FDL Early (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
First introduced in the late 50's, the GE FDL is one of the most popular locomotive prime movers ever produced. Aside from a very few HDL prime movers installed in the AC6000CW's, FDL prime movers were still being put in every new GE locomotive until 2003 when the first Evolution Series was implemented.
Our GE 12cyl 7FDL Early Prime mover would be appropriate for the following locomotives:
U23B
U20C
U23C
U26C
Some newer GE 12cyl 7FDL equipped locomotive had a SLIGHTLY different sound due to a larger exhaust and other hardware. While we will be releasing that sound file shortly (#73438 GE 12cyl 7FDL Modern), this file will be a VERY close substitute until then. Those locomotives would include:
B23-7
BQ23-7
B30-7A

*EMD 16cyl 645E3 V2 (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The emd 645 series was an evolution of the earlier 567 series and a precursor to the later 710 series. When the 645 prime mover entered production in 1965, a large series of new locomotive models was introduced. The turbocharged version was used in EMD's 40 Series (GP40, SD40 and SD45) in 3,000 horsepower (2,200 kW), sixteen-cylinder form and in 3,600 horsepower (2,700 kW), twenty-cylinder form. EMD also introduced the Roots-blown 38 Series (GP38, SD38) and turbocharged, twelve-cylinder 39 Series (GP39, SD39). All of these locomotive models extensively share common components and subsystems, thereby significantly reducing cost and increasing interchangeability. The GP38-2 and SD40-2 became the most popular models of the series and among the most popular locomotive models ever built.
This sound file would be appropriate for the following locomotives:
GP40
GP40P
GP40P-2
GP40-2
GP40X
SD40X
SD40A
SD45T-2

Please note:
This file contains a "Class Light" feature which allows for Cycling Aux3, Aux4, and Aux5 when using a 21MTC decoder. Assign the "Class Light" "Sound" to the function button of your choice and and be sure each Aux listed above is set to "Dimmable Headlight".
File also contains a "low Idle" Mode on F4 when Standing Still.
Pressing F4 while not moving will lower the prime mover and lock the motor. F4 must be turned off to go to "regular idle" and begin moving.
Once moving, F4 becomes the Dynamic Brake.
Please Note:
File Contains a Modern E-Bell, and MILW E-Bell and a Gong Bell which can be selected in Function Mapping. Simply choose the appropriate Sound Slot for F1.

*GE 8cyl 7FDL (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The GE U18B was introduced by GE as a branch line roadswitcher in 1973. Easy to spot due to its relatively short length — 54 ft 8 in (16.66 m) — it was the only North American locomotive powered by the 8-cylinder FDL engine.
There were some export locomotives built with this prime mover:
SG10B, U15C, U17C, U20C, and the C18-7i
The U18B was not well recieved as only 5 railroads bought the locomotive, with one railroad only purchasing 1 unit, for total of 163 units produced. The Seaboard Coast Line Railroad (SCL) bought 105 U18Bs, far more than the second-best U.S. customer, the Maine Central Railroad (MEC), which ordered 10. Most of the SCL and MEC U18Bs rode on refurbished Blomberg trucks, recycled from old EMD locomotives, making the U18B even more visually distinct from other GE locomotives.

The GE FDL-16 prime mover was first used in 1959 in the General Electric U25B locomotive. Over the years little changed in terms of sound until the "Dash-8" series of GE locomotives was introduced. Known for their throaty chug and shaft driven compressor (rather than the more modern “Whoop” electric compressor) , the following GE locomotives used the early 16cyl FDL prime mover:
U25B
U28B
U30B
U33B
U36B
U25C
U28C
U28CG
U30C

*EMD 12cyl 645E (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The EMD 645 family of diesel engines were designed and manufactured by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors. The 645 series was an evolution of the earlier 567 series and a precursor to the later 710 series. The 645 series engines entered production in 1965. All 645 engines utilize forced induction, with either a Roots blower or a turbocharger. The 645 series has a maximum engine speed of between 900 and 950 revolutions per minute (rpm), an increase over the 800 to 900 rpm maximum speed for the 567 series.
Our 12cyl 645E variation is appropriate for the following locomotives:
GP15-1
GP15AC
SW-1500

*GE 12cyl 7FDL Dash-7 (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The GE B23-7 diesel locomotive was first offered in late 1977. Featuring a smaller 12 cylinder version of the FDL engine, it is the successor to GE's U23B produced from early 1968 to mid 1977, but at 62 ' 2" long, the B23-7 is exactly 2' 0" longer than the firms U23B. The B23-7 competed with the very successful EMD GP38-2. General Electric also produced a variant, the BQ23-7, for the Seaboard Coast Line. A total of 537 B23-7's were built for 9 U.S. customers and 2 Mexican customers.
This sound file is appropriate for the following locomotives:
B23-7
BQ23-7
B30-7A
C30-7A
Unlike our 76405 Early 12cyl 7FDL which is correct for The "U-Series" locomotives, this 12cyl 7FDL is more appropriate for the "Dash-7 Series" of GE locomotives. We will also release a "Dash-8 Series" in the near future.
While this prime mover is not completely accurate for the following locomotives it would also be an suitable alternative to break up the monotony on your railroad.
U18D
U20C
U23B
U23C
U26C
Dash 8-32B (B32-8)
Dash 8-32C (C32-8)
While the following are HEP equipped you could also use this for:
Dash 8-32BHW
P32-8WH
P32AC-DM

*ALCO 12cyl 244 (FT)*
Equipped with ESU "FULL THROTTLE" features!
MUST use LokProgrammer Version 4.4.21 or newer
The American Locomotive Company's model 244 prime mover was developed during the mid-1940s to power its post-war diesel locomotives. Interestingly, while Alco helped pioneer diesel technology dating back to the 1920s it had difficulty truly competing against Electro-Motive-Division due to reliability issues with its diesel engines. Before Alco began implementing the 244 in its locomotives the builder had spent most of the 1930s developing an earlier model that was used in most of its early switchers. The new prime mover was supposed to usher in a new era for Alco but instead saw it slip further behind EMD in the marketplace. During the early 1950s the manufacturer replaced the engine with the more reliable 251 that powered its Century series. It would prove to be the company's last engine as it exited the market before 1970.
This sound file would be appropriate for the following locomotives:
RS-2
RS-3
RSC-2
RSC-3
RSD-4
RSD-5
Although there are slight differences, this sound file could also be used in the following locomotives:
FA-1
FB-1
FA-2
FB-2
FPA-2
FPB-2
New FULL THROTTLE features:
Drive Hold: Sound Slot 2 Mapped to F9
Independent Brake: Sound Slot 11 Mapped to F10
Run 8: Sound Slot 20 (not Mapped)
Coast: Sound Slot 21 (not Mapped)
