    Here's the latest video I put up last night of my KW cabover with the 18 liter V8 CAT putting out 600 HP.
    I've got 48 tonnes (106,000 lb) of steel railway sleepers (railroad ties in freedom language). Gross train weight 79 tonnes (174,000 lb).

    All video with GoPro Hero 3+ with an external JVC mic.

    It sounds better if you got good speakers. She was working hard in the 2nd part of the vid.

    You're better off clicking on the direct YouTube link so you can watch in 1080 HD.

     
    7-UP and AModelCat Thank this.

    I love the whine of the Brakesaver. So much more soothing than a Jake.

    Yeah, and you can use them in quiet zones as well. Jakes can be hard on the engine over time. Only thing with the Brakesaver is it's heavy with a lot of oil lines going everywhere and you've got to watch your temperatures.
