What's your favourite engine that can't be found in a car?

I was recently talking to one of our freelancers about 1000bhp wood-chippers (as you do), and it got me wondering about other non-car things that have big-power engines.

I was recently talking to one of our freelancers about 1000bhp wood-chippers (as you do), and it got me wondering about other non-car things that have big-power engines. Then Brittany Ferries released a (frankly bizarre) press release boasting about how its ferries have four 12-cylinder engines making 65,000bhp, and I felt like I wanted to know more.

So, what are your suggestions for cool, big engines found outside the car world?

Your comments were never funny and will never be so either. The train joke itself was never fun. Get over it
