In theory - and in practice with EMD Geeps - a road switcher was the perfect all-around diesel, equally adept at low-speed yard work or hustling mainline freight. And indeed, AS-616 stood for \"All-Service, 6 axle, 1600 horsepower\" But the AS-616, like all Baldwin diesels, became typecast by its owners in one particular role: low-speed lugging of heavy loads, both in the yard and in mainline drag freight service.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis role stemmed from the De La Vergne diesel motors that powered all Baldwin units. Acquired by Baldwin in 1931, the De La Vergne Engine Company had started life in 1880 making mechanical refrigeration machines for breweries. Its power plant for Baldwin's locomotives was unique among diesels of its time. In order to make the fuel burn slower and give their 4-cycle engine a longer power stroke, De La Vergne's designers used massive cylinders more than a foot in diameter and added a separate combustion chamber above each cylinder. To allow the fuel more time to burn, they ran the engine at a maximum speed of 625 rpm - just over half the speed of most competitive diesels. In the October 1936 issue of Baldwin Locomotives Magazine, the company claimed that \"slow combustion gives low fuel consumption, absence of smoke, quick pick-up, and smooth idling.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltimately the massive De La Vergne motor proved to be both a blessing and a curse. Teamed up with equally heavy-duty traction motors supplied by Westinghouse, Baldwin's prime mover found its niche in low-speed, heavy tonnage lugging assignments, where engine crews admired Baldwin diesels because they just wouldn't quit. But those were just the types of assignments in which crews tended to abuse equipment and push an engine to its limits. As a result, Baldwin engines eventually developed a reputation for high maintenance costs. The early VO-1000 switcher, with its normally aspirated 8-cylinder engine, was one of Baldwin's most dependable locomotives; but the turbocharged models that succeeded it, including the AS-616, were plagued by problems that included excessive piston wear and chronic oil leaks. In the early 1950s, when diesel power was new and railroads were trying engines from all manufacturers, 19 U.S. and Latin American railroads purchased 221 AS-616s (including 7 cabless B-units). But by the middle of the decade, it was clear that Baldwin was no longer a contender in the diesel business, and in 1956 the nation's oldest locomotive builder threw in the towel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelive the excitement and variety of the early diesel years with the RailKing Scale AS-616.

The first SW-class engine, the 600-hp SW1, appeared in 1939, and the SW units remained in the EMD catalog until the 1,000-hp SW-1000 was finally retired in 1986. With the \"SW\" in the name denoting that the engine was built for switching duties, it never needed the high horsepower ratings of road diesels.

The first SW-class engine, the 600-hp SW1, appeared in 1939, and the SW units remained in the EMD catalog until the 1,000-hp SW-1000 was finally retired in 1986. With the \"SW\" in the name denoting that the engine was built for switching duties, it never needed the high horsepower ratings of road diesels. They could be paired with cab-less \"calf\" units in the classic cow and calf configuration if a particular job needed more power.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese boxy little workhorses return to the M.T.H.

As switch locomotives, the SWs are perfect for yard duty thanks to their incredible slow-speed performance - performance governed by M.T.H.'s industry-leading Proto-Speed speed control system. No other switchers can creep so slow or uncouple cars from front or rear without additional equipment.

FM's unique opposed-piston diesel engine powered about half the U.S. Navy's World War II submarine fleet and developed a great reputation for reliability; the adaptation to railroad equipment during and after the war seemed like a natural transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the opposed-piston motor, each cylinder had a piston at either end and the combustion chamber in the middle. There were no valves or cylinder heads. Intake and exhaust occurred through holes in the cylinder walls. The upper and lower banks of pistons each powered a separate crankshaft, and the two crankshafts were linked together to power the locomotive. While this sounds like a complex way to build an engine, the OP diesel in fact had several advantages over a conventional motor: less moving parts, terrific acceleration, and about double the horsepower per cylinder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFM had tooled up to produce its first diesel-electric, a 1000 hp switcher, when World War II intervened, and its entire production of OP engines was requisitioned for submarine service. The War Production Board allowed FM to build one prototype locomotive in 1944, and the H10-44 was born. With a high hood like all subsequent FM locomotives — to clear the tall OP motor — and styling polished by industrial designer Raymond Loewy of Pennsy GG1 fame, the muscular H10-44 made FM a new contender in the nascent diesel locomotive business. In the postwar market, with railroads clamoring for new power to replace their war-weary fleets, FM’s plant worked at capacity filling H10-44 orders from a dozen Class 1 railroads and many short lines as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDid You Know?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the H10-44 model name, \"H\" stood for hood type construction, \"10\" indicated 1000 horsepower, and \"44\" indicated 4 axles, 4 motors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MTH Electric Trains","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43690842816758,"sku":"30-21022-1","price":299.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/0560\/products\/IMG_2702_8498554f-ff7b-4e50-942b-13db8f2791a1.jpg?v=1679599756"},{"product_id":"mth-20-21631-1","title":"MTH 20-21631-1 - Premier - RS-11 High Hood Diesel Engine \"Louisville \u0026 Nashville\" #955 w\/ PS3","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eAnnounced Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eJune 2022\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eReleased Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eJune 2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eIndividually Boxed:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eYes\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad Name: Louisville \u0026amp;

Alco had, after all, invented the road switcher: a multipurpose engine with great visibility fore and aft, capable of anything from slow-speed switching to full-throttle mainline hauling. And in the late 1940s and early ‘50s, Alco’s pioneering RS-1 and RS-3 had sold well. But Alco’s 1600 hp model 244 motor had acquired a reputation for unreliability, and the Electro-Motive GP7 and GP9, copying the road switcher concept, became the runaway best-sellers of first-generation diesels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne wonders today if Alco’s problem was really its motor or EMD’s commanding sales lead. Back in World War II, EMD had been the only company permitted to manufacture road diesels, and shop crews nationwide had learned to service the EMD 567 prime mover. Perhaps a lack of familiarity led to lesser-quality maintenance of Alco motors; as evidence, Alco fans today point to the New Haven, an all-Alco railroad that got great service from its Alco fleet while others complained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn any case, the RS-11 addressed the reliability issue with a new Model 251 V-12 motor, offering 50 more horsepower than the contemporary GP9. At least a dozen Class 1 railroads in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico bought the new engine after it was introduced in 1956. Some used it in passenger service with an optional train heat boiler. Later a low-nose version with better forward visibility was offered. But while the RS-11 was a good locomotive, the race had already been lost. Sales numbered in the hundreds while Geeps sold by the thousands. Some RS-11 orders were simply fallout from EMD’s success — when they couldn’t make Geeps fast enough, Alco got the overflow orders.

Alco had, after all, invented the road switcher: a multipurpose engine with great visibility fore and aft, capable of anything from slow-speed switching to full-throttle mainline hauling. And in the late 1940s and early ‘50s, Alco’s pioneering RS-1 and RS-3 had sold well. But Alco’s 1600 hp model 244 motor had acquired a reputation for unreliability, and the Electro-Motive GP7 and GP9, copying the road switcher concept, became the runaway best-sellers of first-generation diesels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne wonders today if Alco’s problem was really its motor or EMD’s commanding sales lead. Back in World War II, EMD had been the only company permitted to manufacture road diesels, and shop crews nationwide had learned to service the EMD 567 prime mover. Perhaps a lack of familiarity led to lesser-quality maintenance of Alco motors; as evidence, Alco fans today point to the New Haven, an all-Alco railroad that got great service from its Alco fleet while others complained.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn any case, the RS-11 addressed the reliability issue with a new Model 251 V-12 motor, offering 50 more horsepower than the contemporary GP9. At least a dozen Class 1 railroads in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico bought the new engine after it was introduced in 1956. Some used it in passenger service with an optional train heat boiler. Later a low-nose version with better forward visibility was offered. But while the RS-11 was a good locomotive, the race had already been lost. Sales numbered in the hundreds while Geeps sold by the thousands. Some RS-11 orders were simply fallout from EMD’s success — when they couldn’t make Geeps fast enough, Alco got the overflow orders. While Alco soldiered on for another decade, introducing its Century series of locomotives, the RS-11 turned out to be the last Alco diesel that sold in significant numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis RS-11 can offer stiff competition for the Geeps and F-units on your railroad - or, like the prototype, you can mix them together in lashups, thanks to Proto-Sound 3.0 technology.

was the Pennsy's War Baby, conceived and born to move freight for World War II. Like most American railroads, the Pennsylvania found itself short of motive power when traffic ramped up for the war. The Pennsy would have preferred to design its own modern steam loco, but the War Production Board declared otherwise. Only existing, proven designs would be authorized for wartime construction. In retrospect, that was probably a good thing, because none of the Pennsy's postwar steam designs came close to the success of the J1.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor its war baby, the Pennsylvania chose a design created twelve years earlier by Lima for the Chesapeake \u0026amp; Ohio. The C\u0026amp;O T1 2-10-4 possessed the key attribute of a modern \"super-power\" locomotive: power at speed. Home-built in the Juniata shops from 1942 to 1944, the Pennsy's 125 copies, designated classes J1 and J1a, were quickly recognized by Pennsy faithful as among of the best steamers produced in the modern era. They were at home anywhere west of Altoona, pounding up heavy grades or flying along level stretches. Being based on another road's design, they possessed two distinctively un-Pennsy features - a booster engine and a radial-stay rather than Belpaire firebox. However, their builders managed to give the J's a look all their own, with a substantial Pennsy cast pilot, streamlined cab windows, and a single massive dome that served as both sandbox and steam dome. Viewed from trackside at speed, the J's were the epitome of high, wide, and handsome.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor 2022, the legendary 2-10-4 Texas locomotives return to the M.T.H.

While Electro-Motive's E-units easily beat Alco's passenger engine in terms of popularity, the PA is widely regarded as the most beautiful first-generation diesel - period. Perhaps no other locomotive looked so right at the head of the streamlined trains of the late forties and fifties that were the last hurrah of American long-distance passenger service. The 294 PA's and cabless PB's built between 1946 and 1953 powered some of the most famous name trains from coast to coast, from the Santa Fe's Super Chief to the New Haven's Merchants' Limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe muscular PA profile and its elegant nose with the characteristic grille around the headlight were designed by Ray Patten of General Electric. At the time, GE and Alco were partners in the locomotive business, with GE making the electrical equipment for all Alco diesels. While Alco would later fall by the wayside, GE went on to become America's largest locomotive builder by the early 1990's.\u003cbr\u003eUnder the hood of the PA beat a 16-cylinder model 244 prime mover that developed 2000 hp. Depending on their gearing, PA's could hustle a passenger consist along at up to 100 mph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong after all other PA's had gone to scrap, four restored ex-Santa Fe units remained in service on the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson into the late 1970's. Sold to the Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico (FNM) in 1978, most of the units eventually deteriorated to junk status, although one remained operational. But in April of 2000, Doyle McCormack - who also happens to be the engineer of 4449, the restored Southern Pacific Daylight - and the Smithsonian Institution repatriated two of the junked units for rebuilding. One of the units will be restored to Santa Fe livery for static display, while Doyle is bringing the other PA back to life in the Nickel Plate Road \"Bluebird\" scheme.

Like Baldwin’s Sharknose diesels a decade before, the Century lineup, introduced in 1963, was a final attempt by one of America’s big three steam builders to stay relevant in the diesel market. Just three years earlier, former Alco partner General Electric had inaugurated the second generation of diesel power with its innovative U25B, and would soon usurp Alco as the number two firm in the locomotive business — a business dominated by an auto maker. With its back against the wall, Alco resorted to sheer muscle to try to win the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the early 1960s, the generation of engines that had dieselized America was beginning to wear out. As manufacturers marketed second generation replacement power, one of their key selling points was “unit reduction” — replacement of lower-power first generation units with a smaller number of new, higher-power units. Compared with its 2500 hp rivals, GE’s U25 and EMD’s GP35, Alco’s C-628 (“Century series, 6-axle, 2800 hp”) was a beast — at least 30 tons heavier and nearly five feet longer than either of its competitors, and easily able to outpull them both. Alco’s claim that the C-628 was “the most powerful single-engine diesel locomotive ever built in the United States” was no idle boast. In an attempt to address dependability issues that had dogged earlier Alco diesels, Alco’s designers incorporated numerous reliablity improvements into the C-628 and its four-axle companions in the Century series — including pressurized air circulation in the engine room to keep out dirt (an idea pioneered on GE’s U-boats) and a claimed 8 years between major engine overhauls. Alco’s salesmen boasted that the C-series would cut operating costs by a whopping 44% versus a 10-year-old engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnfortunately, however, the game had already been lost. With EMD having a firm grip on the market and GE coming up fast, the C-628, the best-selling model in the Century lineup, sold only 186 units from 1963-1968, compared with over 1300 GP35s and nearly 500 U25Bs. Most C-628 sales were to existing Alco customers, who were largely pleased with the engine’s 70 mph top speed and ability to haul tremendous loads. On roads with lighter track structure, however, the Alco’s tremendous weight and power proved damaging to the rails, hurting sales and causing some roads like the Monon to sell their units within a few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut in many cases, the rugged engines outlasted the company that built them and even the first railroads that owned them. The Pennsy’s C-628s were passed to the Penn Central and, along with the Lehigh Valley’s units, to Conrail in 1976, where they served another two years before retirement. And in 1973, the Chicago and North Western purchased the Norfolk and Western’s C-628 fleet and ran it for another 14 years. Alco, meanwhile, had shuttered its Schenectady locomotive plant in 1969 and sold its designs to its Canadian cousin, the Montreal Locomotive Works. After many changes in corporate ownership, Alco designs are still alive today in India, where a large number of diesels are driven by descendants of the same Alco 251 diesel motor that powered the Century series.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MTH Electric Trains","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44402933334262,"sku":"30-21094-1","price":379.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/0560\/files\/IMG_3668.jpg?v=1690579155"},{"product_id":"mth-30-20940-1-sw-9-switcher-diesel-engine-lima-hamilton-corporation-w-ps3-1001-custom-run-for-mrmuffinstrains","title":"MTH 30-20940-1 - RailKing - SW-9 Switcher Diesel Engine \"Lima-Hamilton Corporation\" #1001 w\/ PS3 - Custom Run for Stockyard Express","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eAnnounced Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eJuly 2021\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eReleased Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eMarch 2022\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eIndividually Boxed:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad Name:\u003cspan\u003e Lima-Hamilton Corporation\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad Number: 1001\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Line: RailKing Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: O Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntricately Detailed, Durable ABS Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie-Cast Truck Sides, Pilots and Fuel Tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Handrails and Horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Paint Scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Wheels, Axles and Gears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Remote-Controlled Proto-Couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrototypical Rule 17 Lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectionally Controlled Constant Voltage LED Headlight\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Precision Flywheel-Equipped Motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard DCC\/DCS Decoder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocomotive Speed Control In Scale MPH Increments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:48 Scale Proportions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProto-Sound 3.0 With The Digital Command System Featuring Freight Yard Proto-Effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit Measures: 12\" x 2 1\/2\" x 3 1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates On O-27 Curves\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDiesel DCC Features\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF1 Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF2 Horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF3 Start-up\/Shut-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF4 PFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF5 Lights (except head\/tail)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF6 Master Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF7 Front Coupler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF8 Rear Coupler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF9 Forward Signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF10 Reverse Signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF11 Grade Crossing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF12 Clickety Clack (On\/Off)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF13 Idle Sequence 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF14 Idle Sequence 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF15 Idle Sequence 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF16 Idle Sequence 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF17 Extended Start-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF18 Extended Shut-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF19 Rev Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF20 Rev Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF21 One Shot Doppler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF22 Coupler Slack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF23 Coupler Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF24 Single Horn Blast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF25 Engine Sounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF26 Brake Sounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF27 Cab Chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF28 Feature Reset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverview:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEMD's 800-hp SW-8s and 1,200-hp SW-9s both debuted in 1950, marking the next stage in the evolution of one of railroading's longest-lived diesel families. The first SW-class engine, the 600-hp SW1, appeared in 1939, and the SW units remained in the EMD catalog until the 1,000-hp SW-1000 was finally retired in 1986. With the \"SW\" in the name denoting that the engine was built for switching duties, it never needed the high horsepower ratings of road diesels.

In the late 1940s, Dilworth saw that America's 30,000 miles of main line rail had been virtually dieselized, but the 130,000 miles of secondary lines that carried half of the nation's freight traffic were still largely steam powered. He viewed that as a huge marketing opportunity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Dilworth Story\u003c\/i\u003e, a book published by Electro-Motive Division in 1954, Dilworth explained how he tried to meet that opportunity: \"In planning the GP, I had two dreams. The first was to make a locomotive so ugly in appearance that no railroad would want it on the main line or anywhere near headquarters, but would keep it out as far as possible in the back country, where it could do really useful work. My second dream was to make it so simple in construction and so devoid of Christmas-tree ornaments and other whimsy that the price would be materially below our standard main-line freight locomotives.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf course, Dilworth's explanation conveniently ignored the fact that Alco's arguably uglier RS-1 had introduced the road switcher concept eight years before EMD. And in one sense, Dilworth's project was a failure. Railroads bought Geeps for mainline service and relegated older power to secondary lines as they had always done. But his brainchild became the runaway best-seller among first-generation diesel power. U.S. and Canadian railroads bought nearly 7,000 copies of the 1500 horsepower GP7, introduced in 1949, and the 1750 horsepower GP9, produced from 1954 through 1963.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn those early days of diesel power, experienced engineers loved the Geep cab because, unlike the new streamliners, it felt like home to them. An engineer in a Geep running long hood forward sat near the back of the engine, looking out over the power plant - just as he had in a steam engine.

What GE wanted to avoid was the “after-treatment” solution used since 2010 in heavy truck engines: carrying a tankfull of a chemical called urea that reacts with exhaust gas to neutralize nitrogen oxide. Instead GE developed an ingenious system that recirculates hot exhaust gas back into the engine; the net result is that switching to a new GE diesel is the equivalent of removing 12,000 cars from our nation’s highways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top-of-the-line RailKing Imperial model of this modern freight mover features a full range of locomotive sounds recorded from an actual ES44AC.

If you've got a transformer with a whistle and bell button, you've got the best switcher you can buy today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MTH Electric Trains","offers":[{"title":"Weathered and detailed","offer_id":46314990469366,"sku":"30-209NW-WD","price":499.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Painted and Lettered","offer_id":46315020746998,"sku":"30-209NW-PL","price":369.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1011\/0560\/files\/MTH-30-209NW-1-SW-8-SW-9-Switcher-Diesel-Engine-_Norfolk-_-Western_-_3129-w-PS3-MTH-30-209NW-1-SW-8-SW-9-Switcher-Diesell1i.jpg?v=1685551007"},{"product_id":"mth-30-21212-1","title":"MTH 30-21212-1 - RailKing - RS-3 Diesel Engine \"Delaware \u0026 Hudson\" #4126 w\/ PS3 - Custom Run for MrMuffin'sTrains","description":"\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eAnnounced Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eMarch 2023\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eReleased Date:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eFeb 2024\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 27.2172%;\"\u003eIndividually Boxed:\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.7828%;\"\u003eNo - 3 to a case\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad Name: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDelaware \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoad Number: 4126\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Line: RailKing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: O Scale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePreviously 30-2116DH\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntricately Detailed, Durable ABS Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDie-Cast Truck Sides, Pilots and Fuel Tank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Chassis\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Handrails and Horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Paint Scheme\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMetal Wheels, Axles and Gears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Remote-Controlled Proto-Couplers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrototypical Rule 17 Lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirectionally Controlled Constant Voltage LED Headlights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e(2) Precision Flywheel-Equipped Motors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnboard DCC\/DCS Decoder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocomotive Speed Control In Scale MPH Increments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1:48 Scale Proportions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProto-Sound 3.0 With The Digital Command System Featuring Freight Yard Proto-Effects\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit Measures: 14 1\/2” x 2 1\/2” x 3 3\/4”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates On O-27 Curves\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiesel DCC Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF0 Head\/Tail light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF1 Bell\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF2 Horn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF3 Start-up\/Shut-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF4 PFA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF5 Lights (except head\/tail)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF6 Master Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF7 Front Coupler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF8 Rear Coupler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF9 Forward Signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF10 Reverse Signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF11 Grade Crossing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF12 Smoke On\/Off\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF13 Smoke Volume\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF14 Idle Sequence 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF15 Idle Sequence 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF16 Idle Sequence 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF17 Extended Start-up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF18 Extended Shut-down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF19 Rev Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF20 Rev Down\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF21 One Shot Doppler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF22 Coupler Slack\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF23 Coupler Close\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF24 Single Horn Blast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF25 Engine Sounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF26 Brake Sounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF27 Cab Chatter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eF28 Feature Reset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOverview:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy the time the first RS-3's rolled off the assembly line in 1950, Alco had refined its road switcher concept to create \"a truly universal locomotive which could do anything and go almost anywhere,\" in the words of author J.W. Swanson in\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eNew Haven Power\u003c\/i\u003e. In contrast with its predecessor, the 1000 hp RS-1, the 1600 hp RS-3 had all the power of a road diesel of its time and could boil along at up to 80 mph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor awhile in the early 1950's, ALCO looked like a true contender in the burgeoning road switcher market. RS-3's could be found on a majority of class one railroads doing everything from switching and transfer duties to mainline freight and even passenger and commuter service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUltimately, however, the RS-3 took a distant second place to Electro-Motive's GP7 and GP9 in sales volume. Perhaps what doomed Alco was EMD's already-commanding lead in the road diesel market - in part because EMD's FT was the only road diesel allowed to be produced during World War II, when diesels began their takeover of American railroads. Other builders were relegated to producing diesel switchers until the conflict ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere was also talk that Alcos were less dependable. In hindsight, however, that seems to have been a result of EMD's sales lead. Perhaps shop crews were simply less familiar with Alco's model 244 prime mover and how to service it. In fact, roads with primarily Alco fleets, such as the New Haven, found Alco products to be very reliable when maintained properly. With their power and flexibility, RS-3's proved their worth so successfully that many railroads kept them on active duty after other first-generation diesels had been retired. They survived on class 1 railroads until the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson retired its last RS-3 in 1986 and remained active in shortline and industrial service for years afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBring the versatility of this do-anything\/go-anywhere engine to your railroad with the RailKing Scale RS-3.

EMD, newly independent and no longer a division of General Motors, offers the SD70ACe. The standard bearer for General Electric, the top seller of road freight diesels, is the Evolution Series ES44AC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of the Evolution Series is a brand new prime mover, the four-cycle, 12-cylinder GEVO-12. While producing the same 4400 horsepower as its 16-cylinder FDL-series predecessor, the GEVO-12 uses less fuel and spits out 40% fewer emissions. GE claims the EVOs are “the most fuel-efficient, most environmentally friendly diesel locomotives in history.” Everything about these locomotives has been examined, questioned, and re-thought, generating 25 new U.S. patents in the process. And every Class 1 railroad has ponied up to buy them, with the BNSF currently rostering the largest EVO fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RailKing Imperial ES44AC comes accurately decorated in modern motive power paint schemes. Our near-scale model is a full 17\" in length, yet operates comfortably on O-31 curves.

By the time the MP15 debuted in 1974, the multipurpose road switcher, descended from the Alco RS-series and the EMD GP7, had become the universal locomotive. The cab unit was already a dinosaur and the single-purpose yard engine was rapidly headed for extinction. To create a more versatile switcher, EMD gave the MP15 a longer frame than its predecessor, the SW1500, in order to fit it with the same Blomberg trucks as a road engine. Those better-riding trucks, along with more weight, a larger fuel capacity, and bigger sandboxes, made the MP15 suitable for road duty as well as switching, and allowed EMD to sell more than 500 units before the last MP15 was delivered in 1987.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MP15 came in two flavors, traditional and modern. The MP15DC used traditional electrical gear and shared the front-mounted radiator and air intakes that had characterized all previous EMD end-cab switchers. It was basically a beefed-up SW1500. The MP15AC, however, incorporated EMD's Dash 2 technology, with solid-state transistors and circuit boards replacing the wiring, switches, and relays found in earlier diesels. Its cooling system was borrowed from the \"Tunnel Motors\" EMD had created for the Southern Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe front of the hood was plain, like the rear of a Tunnel Motor, and the radiator air intakes were moved to the sides of the hood, low and at the front of the engine. Not surprisingly, the Southern Pacific was the first customer to order an MP15AC. Because the Dash 2 technology was relatively new and some railroads found it unnecessarily expensive for a lowly switcher, EMD continued to make both the DC and AC versions of the MP15 for most of its production run, and sales for the two models were about equal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eM.T.H. returns our full-scale version of the last and largest of the end-cab switchers to the RailKing Scale line for 2017. Our model replicates the more-traditional MP15DC with its front-mounted radiator and air intakes. Like its prototype, this RailKing Scale engine is equally at home doing slow-speed yard duty or hauling commuters or freight along your main line.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MTH Electric

Swanson in New Haven Power. In contrast with its predecessor, the 1000 hp RS-1, the 1600 hp RS-3 had all the power of a road diesel of its time and could boil along at up to 80 mph.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor awhile in the early 1950's, ALCO looked like a true contender in the burgeoning road switcher market. RS-3's could be found on a majority of class one railroads doing everything from switching and transfer duties to mainline freight and even passenger and commuter service.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUltimately, however, the RS-3 took a distant second place to Electro-Motive's GP7 and GP9 in sales volume. Perhaps what doomed Alco was EMD's already-commanding lead in the road diesel market - in part because EMD's FT was the only road diesel allowed to be produced during World War II, when diesels began their takeover of American railroads. Other builders were relegated to producing diesel switchers until the conflict ended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was also talk that Alcos were less dependable. In hindsight, however, that seems to have been a result of EMD's sales lead. Perhaps shop crews were simply less familiar with Alco's model 244 prime mover and how to service it. In fact, roads with primarily Alco fleets, such as the New Haven, found Alco products to be very reliable when maintained properly.

Swanson in New Haven Power. In contrast with its predecessor, the 1000 hp RS-1, the 1600 hp RS-3 had all the power of a road diesel of its time and could boil along at up to 80 mph.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor awhile in the early 1950's, ALCO looked like a true contender in the burgeoning road switcher market. RS-3's could be found on a majority of class one railroads doing everything from switching and transfer duties to mainline freight and even passenger and commuter service.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUltimately, however, the RS-3 took a distant second place to Electro-Motive's GP7 and GP9 in sales volume. Perhaps what doomed Alco was EMD's already-commanding lead in the road diesel market - in part because EMD's FT was the only road diesel allowed to be produced during World War II, when diesels began their takeover of American railroads. Other builders were relegated to producing diesel switchers until the conflict ended.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere was also talk that Alcos were less dependable. In hindsight, however, that seems to have been a result of EMD's sales lead. Perhaps shop crews were simply less familiar with Alco's model 244 prime mover and how to service it. In fact, roads with primarily Alco fleets, such as the New Haven, found Alco products to be very reliable when maintained properly. With their power and flexibility, RS-3's proved their worth so successfully that many railroads kept them on active duty after other first-generation diesels had been retired. They survived on class 1 railroads until the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson retired its last RS-3 in 1986 and remained active in shortline and industrial service for years afterward.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBring the versatility of this do-anything\/go-anywhere engine to your railroad with the RailKing Scale RS-3.

The third generation of freight engines had found its sweet spot: a six-axle, computer-assisted, 4000–4400 horsepower locomotive with a wide, comfortable cab. Railroads viewed this as the perfect building block for multi-engine lashups to power virtually any size train. Development of the next generation of power would be born not out of railroad needs, but due to government regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn January 1, 2005, the Environmental Protection Agency’s Tier 2 emissions requirements for railroad locomotives went into effect, significantly reducing the pollutants that diesels could exhaust into the atmosphere. Electro-Motive Diesel’s SD70ACe, along with its General Electric rival, the ES44AC, inaugurated the fourth generation of diesel power in response to those regulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRather than just upgrade its existing SD70MAC to Tier 2 standards, EMD took the opportunity to design a new locomotive from the rails up. Emissions turned out to be the easy part. Only slight modifications were needed to make EMD’s 4300 horsepower model 710 motor meet new emission standards. With 5000 such motors in service worldwide and a reputation for dependability, EMD reasoned that shop crews would prefer familiar technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther than the prime mover, however, virtually every element of the SD70ACe was re-thought to create a 21st century locomotive. Ergonomics were a prime consideration. The engine’s angular nose offers the crew far better visibility than most other locomotives, and the cab is comfortable for engineers of almost any size. Digital screens provide a range of information on what is happening both inside the locomotive and out on the road. The cab easily accommodates a crew of three — an important factor in a modern world without cabooses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SD70ACe also offers, in EMD’s words, “outstanding improvements in maintainability.” All electrical wires are on the right side of the locomotive and all piping is on the left, with most pipes and wires routed under the frame so they can be serviced by a man standing outside the engine — rather than crawling around at the bottom of the engine room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter a year of testing on the road and at the Association of American Railroads’ test track in Pueblo, CO, the first SD70ACe’s (‘e” stands for “enhanced”) were delivered to CSX Transportation in 2004. Six of North America’s seven major Class 1 railroads, along with a number of smaller lines, ponied up to buy the new locomotives. When stricter Tier 3 emissions rules went into effect in 2012, compliance was relatively easy. By the end of production in 2014 — after new Tier 4 requirements dictated a new locomotive design — nearly 2000 SD70ACe’s were and still are hauling freight across the U.S., Canada and Mexico.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur near-scale RailKing model of this fourth-generation pioneer is a full 17” in length, yet operates comfortably on O-31 curves. Under the hood is the same Proto-Sound 3.0 sound and control system found in our more expensive Premier model of this locomotive — complete with sounds recorded from an actual Union Pacific SD70ACe. Additional Imperial features include operating diesel exhaust smoke and flashing ditch lights.

At the heart of the Evolution Series is a diesel motor designed specifically to comply with new Environmental Protection Agency regulations: the turbocharged four-cycle, 12-cylinder GEVO-12. While producing the same 4400 horsepower as its 16-cylinder FDL-series predecessor, the GEVO-12 uses less fuel and spits out 40% fewer emissions. Each of its cylinders displaces 950 cubic inches, more than twice as much as an entire Corvette V-8.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGE claims the EVOs are “the most fuel-efficient, most environmentally friendly diesel locomotives in history… If every freight train in North America were pulled by an Evolution Series Locomotive, the reduction of smog-producing pollutants would be like removing 48 million cars from the road each year.” Everything about these locomotives has been examined, questioned, and re-thought, generating 25 new U.S. patents in the process. Today ES44ACs are rostered by every one of the Class 1 roads that dominate rail transportation in North America: Union Pacific, BNSF, CSX, Norfolk Southern, Kansas City Southern, Canadian National, and Canadian Pacific.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur superbly detailed, top-of-the-line RailKing Imperial model of this modern freight mover features a full range of locomotive sounds recorded from an actual ES44AC. Outfitted with twin powerful flywheel-equipped motors, all-metal wheels and gears, and our revolutionary Proto-Speed Control, our ES44AC will haul long freights at any speed from a crawl to full throttle. Remotely activated front and rear Proto-Couplers allow you to pick up and drop off freight wherever you like.

While producing the same 4400 horsepower as its 16-cylinder FDL-series predecessor, the GEVO-12 uses less fuel and spits out 40% fewer emissions.

While Electro-Motive's E-units easily beat Alco's passenger engine in terms of popularity, the PA is widely regarded as the most beautiful first-generation diesel - period. Perhaps no other locomotive looked so right at the head of the streamlined trains of the late forties and fifties that were the last hurrah of American long-distance passenger service. The 294 PA's and cabless PB's built between 1946 and 1953 powered some of the most famous name trains from coast to coast, from the Santa Fe's Super Chief to the New Haven's Merchants' Limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe muscular PA profile and its elegant nose with the characteristic grille around the headlight were designed by Ray Patten of General Electric. At the time, GE and Alco were partners in the locomotive business, with GE making the electrical equipment for all Alco diesels. While Alco would later fall by the wayside, GE went on to become America's largest locomotive builder by the early 1990's.\u003cbr\u003eUnder the hood of the PA beat a 16-cylinder model 244 prime mover that developed 2000 hp. Depending on their gearing, PA's could hustle a passenger consist along at up to 100 mph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong after all other PA's had gone to scrap, four restored ex-Santa Fe units remained in service on the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson into the late 1970's. Sold to the Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico (FNM) in 1978, most of the units eventually deteriorated to junk status, although one remained operational. But in April of 2000, Doyle McCormack - who also happens to be the engineer of 4449, the restored Southern Pacific Daylight - and the Smithsonian Institution repatriated two of the junked units for rebuilding.

While Electro-Motive's E-units easily beat Alco's passenger engine in terms of popularity, the PA is widely regarded as the most beautiful first-generation diesel - period. Perhaps no other locomotive looked so right at the head of the streamlined trains of the late forties and fifties that were the last hurrah of American long-distance passenger service. The 294 PA's and cabless PB's built between 1946 and 1953 powered some of the most famous name trains from coast to coast, from the Santa Fe's Super Chief to the New Haven's Merchants' Limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe muscular PA profile and its elegant nose with the characteristic grille around the headlight were designed by Ray Patten of General Electric. At the time, GE and Alco were partners in the locomotive business, with GE making the electrical equipment for all Alco diesels. While Alco would later fall by the wayside, GE went on to become America's largest locomotive builder by the early 1990's.\u003cbr\u003eUnder the hood of the PA beat a 16-cylinder model 244 prime mover that developed 2000 hp. Depending on their gearing, PA's could hustle a passenger consist along at up to 100 mph.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong after all other PA's had gone to scrap, four restored ex-Santa Fe units remained in service on the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson into the late 1970's. Sold to the Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico (FNM) in 1978, most of the units eventually deteriorated to junk status, although one remained operational. But in April of 2000, Doyle McCormack - who also happens to be the engineer of 4449, the restored Southern Pacific Daylight - and the Smithsonian Institution repatriated two of the junked units for rebuilding. One of the units will be restored to Santa Fe livery for static display, while Doyle is bringing the other PA back to life in the Nickel Plate Road \"Bluebird\" scheme.
