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"
