Mar_AC_23 Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 I think he means on the Queensway Division page on the Wiki under the Fleet section. Whoever edited it when 8109 moved forgot to update the total number of NGs to 14 because it indeed still said 13. But it's fixed now @dre 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toro Posted May 8 Report Share Posted May 8 It's funny how Queensway is exactly how birchmount was in 2018, only difference is one has ISL powered OGs while the other had S50EGR powered OGs. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ. Posted May 10 Report Share Posted May 10 The 7957 is tracking at Queensway again. Is this going back into service? Nvm previous, I mixed up with "7955" which is showing up at Mount Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can hit the ground running, as long as the parts are accessible. Just my mechanical curiosity, do the 8000s have a little hydraulic pump which then runs a hydraulic motor that turns the fan? And do the hydraulics work any other systems? With the fan belt fans, would there still be a thermostatic viscous clutch on them, or are they simply run off the belt at engine* speed. I imagine the fans would be pretty massive. And I remember when viscous clutches were a newfangled thing on cars--in those days of V8 and RWD, the fans weren't electric, they were hung off the water pumps and driven by (an) accessory belt. *In the ratio determined by the pulleys.

Going by the last non hybrid series I had my hands into with hydraulic fans (the 7000s) they had a large gear train driven pump for the fan and a separate smaller belt driven pump for the power steering. Both of these draw off the same common reservoir however. the hybrids use a gear driven stacked tandem pump (read: 2 pumps in series sharing a common mechanical input) fan duty cycle is controlled by a pulse width modulated solenoid valve for the hydraulic systems, viscous clutch on the belt drives, where the belt pulley is mated to a cardan shaft. Mitre gearbox then drives the fan. The viscous clutch should be on/off only, the engine computer only controlling the duty cycle. Actual fan speed if a direct product of engine RPM. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
