Good timing for the thread to come back up, I found a video of the Metro starting, and here it is.

YouTube - Starting a Garrett turboprop engine

That's a nice, quick start as well.

Hmmm....so there must be some other factor at play here, because sometimes you can get very similar lighting conditions and view the engine/s from a very similar angle yet not witness a glow.
I guess it would depend on the amount of derate used as well. Full derate has the engines running a fair bit lower EGT.
