MTH RAIL KING New York Central RS-3 Diesel #8356. By 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. 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. For awhile in the early 1950's, ALCO looked like a true contender in the burgeoning road switcher market. Intricately Detailed, Durable ABS Body.
