I guess old habits are hard to break! Date: 11/07/19 20:02 Re: Trouble East of Reno today Author: kilroydiver 6692 was just tired of being overshadowed by 4014 and was trying to put on a show for the photo run by.

Date: 11/08/19 05:32 Re: Trouble East of Reno today Author: WrongWayMurphy Looks like a Turbocharger failure to me
Date: 11/08/19 09:08 Re: Trouble East of Reno today Author: dash944cw Question: When the lead unit fails, is it possible to "take it out" (shut the prime mover down) and still maintain control of its remaining functions (i.e. horn, head and ditch lights, etc.) as well as controlling the following units, as if the lead unit was dead-in-consist?
... just wondering... Date: 11/08/19 09:24 Re: Trouble East of Reno today Author: exhaustED I think that's maybe more serious than a turbo failure, I think the crank case has gone and the train is about to stop if it hasn't already.

Looks like he wants to give 4014 a run for the money. Date: 11/08/19 09:31 Re: Trouble East of Reno today Author: Walter1 Looks like a runaway on crankcase oil. Just stuff a sock in the airbox. :)
