Alco-Ivich




Starting at 2:22 in this video is a TEM2, a Soviet clone of the Alco RSD-1. You can not mistake that sound. Seventy RSD1s were shipped to the Soviet Union during WWII. Is it telling that the both the radiator area, and the radiator fan are bigger in the Soviet clone than in the Alco original? Kind of like the extra canard on the Concordesky? Remember the movie Multiplicity with Michael Keaton?
