Still using the Incorrect 710 prime mover sounds
OK, how does a turbocharged EMD 16-645 with an exhaust silencer, sound different than a turbocharged 16-710 with an exhaust silencer?
The 710 sounds more refined / toned down.
That is your opinion.
The 645 sounds different.
Not in my opinion, having dealt with EMD 567, 645, and 710 engines for more than 40 years. For what it's worth, the absolute LOUDEST diesel unit EMD ever produced was the DDA40X, with twin 16-645F3 engines and NO EXHAUST SILENCERS.
Lionel is using a one size fits all chip - like they did with their SD40
Just my opinion but, unless you have spent a lifetime working on and around EMD turbocharged engines, it really doesn't matter.
