Engine Sound | ALCO 12cyl 244 (FT)

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. ----- Penggerak utama model 244 dari American Locomotive Company dikembangkan selama pertengahan 1940-an untuk menggerakkan lokomotif diesel pascaperang. Menariknya, sementara Alco membantu memelopori teknologi diesel sejak 1920-an, ia mengalami kesulitan untuk benar-benar bersaing dengan Electro-Motive-Division karena masalah keandalan dengan mesin dieselnya. Sebelum Alco mulai menerapkan 244 di lokomotifnya, pembuatnya telah menghabiskan sebagian besar tahun 1930-an untuk mengembangkan model sebelumnya yang digunakan di sebagian besar pengalih awalnya. Penggerak utama baru itu seharusnya mengantar era baru bagi Alco tetapi malah melihatnya semakin tertinggal di belakang EMD di pasar. Selama awal 1950-an, pabrikan mengganti mesin itu dengan 251 yang lebih andal yang menggerakkan seri Century-nya. Itu akan terbukti menjadi mesin terakhir perusahaan itu karena keluar dari pasar sebelum 1970. #enginesound #alcolocomotive #diesellocomotive #throttle #alco12cyl244ft
