When i worked at the Perserverance UG operation in leinster, the old power station used 6 Wartzilla diesel generators that were similar size. They used to be the primary power supply until a Gas Turbine (GT) unit was installed some time ago.

May when they run, the plume of diesel smoke is amazing. Its about 4 foot wide and goes straight up for about 10m, and its a solid black column.
When they ran them ( not often anymore) we used to get emegrency calls of people thinging a fire had started in the Power plant. I wish i had got more photos than I did.

Those units were about 3 stories. Two above ground with an acess level basement that they sat in.
