Looks like she's also without makeup - bonus points from me. What a rare specimen she is.

Love that little girl she's got her wrench in her hand ready to go.

Smart little girl saying, Hey Mom check the gauges! Great video, thanks for sharing!

This woman is a gem.

The vast majority of mechanics look like they've just finished a 12 hour shift down a coal mine, but you managed to start that engine, without getting a single smudge on that perfectly white top! Now that is an achievement! ♥

Never got to work with such a beautiful diesel mechanic on my locomotives, and cant forget the cute little helper, also

Beautiful video it’s very rare to see the whole family involved in enjoying this type of craftsmanship. I love it !!!

damn fine looking starter there.

A beautiful lady willing to work in a greasy shop with a smile. I wouldn’t mind having one of those.

The coolest engine vid I ever seen

Love the video.....even started with the little one singing. Love it.

That smile is a killer, what an awesomely good woman, mother and wife, she’s the total package and her man should be really proud of her and what he has!

I really am getting sicker and sicker of people in general and then I see a family like this. Smiling and doing something different and interesting together. You see those smiles. That's genuine pride and happiness. Love it.

I never thought an old diesel engine was sexy.....until now! A truly beautiful woman, and obviously a great mom too!

What a nice family

What an awesome happy family. America and Australia should take note. Happiness comes from working together as a team. It shouldn't be a power play. It should be about trying to take care of each other and think about each others happiness.

IMPRESSED!!! Fantastic job, you should be very proud of yourself :)

This Lady is a keeper.

You have a real sweetheart there my friend...and a treasure ! And the engine is nice as well! Well done, teaching her how to operate it, just in case. It would be Very Rare indeed to find an American Woman willing to do that. WOW! I ran engines like that, Atlas and Superior low speed diesels.

Need more than 40 kilos to turn that flywheel, great video, loved the little girl helping her mom:)

Vintage machinery in working condition, beautiful and capable woman, charming child, caring bloke. I don't think it gets any better than this...

I know this type of engine very well from when I was employed at B & W Alpha Dielsen. Even a 100kg man could sometimes have trouble cranking the engine if it was cold and hadn't been started for a while. This woman impresses me :-)

Well done and beautiful family. Cheers!

This video has so many points that make it great. So much to love in it. Thanks for sharing. What a treasure you have in you girls. We all love them.

Beautiful engine and a beautiful crew!

You Sir are a very lucky man! It's so awesome to have spouse to take interest in this. Great video! Nice to see your child involved as well.you showed every step from compression release to priming to startup with compressed air. Awesome. Very informative.

She looks fantastic, what a lady! and the engine runs sweet.

Such beautiful energy in your family

Awesome family, great teamwork!👍

Why would there even be 10 thumbs down not to mention the over 50 thumbs down on this video? She's a beautiful woman, keeps her body in shape, mechanically inclined, energetic, and has a child whose paying a bit of attention and trying to help! Good grief, it's probably the anti-child labor extremists or something like it

Alpha woman starts the alpha diesel.

One in a million. Very rich man. That is worth more than the cattle on a thousand hills!

Mom sure looks like she knows what she's doing. Just lacks the weight to roll that monster over by hand. Excellent video.

Such a awesome engine and awesome woman to 👍👍👍👍

Sweet, wonderful young family. Thanks for sharing. Take care Stay safe.

There is hope for the world.

Awesome vid. I didn't know exactly what was happening but I understood the decompression release and then recompression process. Very cool..

White top, intact knuckles, pretty awesome piece of engineering as well.

Where do you find a woman like that? I can't even get one that will check the fuel gauge occasionally. Respect.

Love the way her daughter helps her good on her😊

Here i am again seeing the wonderful proud smile of job completed..even with a bit of help . Happy travels

Truly amazing. I love that starting the engine is entirely physical.

Barnesang og deilige motorlyder. Fantastisk kontrast i et motorrom. Takk for at dere deler.

Bin immer wieder begeistert..! Dankeschön!

Thats awesome, and beautiful ship that engine is in as well

Well done lady, great effort.

Always nice to see a good lookin smart gal hard at work .. looks like she has learned the startup process very well👍

I used to have a car that used to take just a long to start, I miss it now. Great vid 😊👍

Great video, freaked my out a little bit in the beginning. All I saw was this women, but I heard what I thought was a child's voice, much relieved when I saw the adorable little girl.

on or about time stamp 3:45 I love the way the little girl tapped on the gauge (I used to do that when I was a MM in the navy). the young lady that started the diesel done a very good job of it. (bravo zulu to her).

What a beast. Impressive engine too :).

Absolutely outstanding... Mama and kiddo... Big like! 👌👌🤗👍

Wish I knew what all the steps were to start that engine? She sure knew what's going on. Well done.

Machine sounds amazing.

Thank you for sharing, I may assume the small beauty is a direct copy of the larger one. Knowing this may I add that im envious that such a stunning woman has anything to do with a large diesel greasy beast.

Nothing like a little engine room family time! Much respect.

Siete dei grandi. Vedere l'impegno di tutta la famiglia mi fa piacere. Cosi trasmettete anche alle generazioni future il sapere del passato. ....👍🏻

complimenti,siete una squadra ben assortita ed affiatata.......10 e lode !

B&W Alpha, great danish engine!!

Job well done , her smile is priceless !!

That flywheel must be a real bare.

Cool as all get out !! She knows the process really good. The way the little girl came over to help was absolutely priceless. Nothing like some good teamwork. Great video.

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AMAZING WOMAN!!!

I once worked on the older, two cylinder, version of this engine. Was fun! but i remember a few more steps, especially checking if there was a flow of cooling water coming out of the port outside the ship.

That was one sweet lady. And how cool - you definitely do not have to explain her why an engine needs oil... 👍🏼😊 But man, what a process to start those old engines - it is seriously different from just turning the ignition.

That's true family involvement. A childhood she will remember and cherish. 👍

Awesome video...!

❤️this ! Brings back old memories ! 👍👍🤛🤛

When that VTEC kicks in 😜 Cool video and cool girl 🤗

Admirable.! De Colombia. Salud y Éxitos.!

Mi sono innamorato ❤️ È fantastica 👏

It's like a workout every time you have to start the beast 🤣

Wow superwomen with a diesel i love it!

She must be protected and cherished lmao. good to see the skill s and gorgeous too

Min mor rørte aldri noe i motoren, men min tante var fulstendig ekspert. Godt jobba av fruen i huset, flott å se at noen tar vare på vår kystkultur.

The moment she opened the valve on the starter-air bottle, I was suddenly taken some years back - working in the North Sea, on ''Stril Clipper'; I was helping the 'chief' down in the eng.room, lifting the head of a compressor back in place after overhaul, and when mounted & connected, he started it up - simultaneously opening the valve on the huge bottle (tank) of (starter-) air for the main engine. Suddenly a flange (on the pipe going from the compressor to the main eng. starter-air tank) broke off, and a hell of a *_swoooshing-air-sound_* erupted (0nly an auxcillary engine was running at the time, so the sound of escaping air was *_REAL LOUD!!!_* ). And _that's_ when the idiot chief for a moment *_totally panicked!_* - He stood in one place - turning in circles!!! - absolutely _clueless_ - until he _finally_ ran for the valve of the m.engine's starter-air tank and got it closed! (I'll _never, ever_ forget the expression of being totlly and _uttely_ 'lost'! 🤣 [This ''guy'' was in some ways _more_ of a woman than the girl starting this good ole B.W! . . . . . ) Good job to this nice family! 😉👍

Great work !

She can start my engine for sure!

Good job!

Nice work🏅

Snakk Om team work 👍

Well you have to say that she definitely tried her best and with a little help she got it running

A longer bar and she would have had it on her own

Taková to ženská je pro život👍👍😍 hezké to video👌

Al lado de un gran motor, una gran mujer. Cuidala hermano!

super gemacht

Super cool!

Parabéns família linda!👫🙋💪(Brazil)

Really nice
