Atlas 7017 HO Scale FC & NH SD35 Diesel Locomotive #738-Custom VG

Here is an Atlas 7017 HO Scale FC & NH SD35 Diesel Locomotive #738-Custom. Well over 1,300 RS-3 road-switcher locomotives were built by ALCO between 1950 and 1956. It can be considered one of the most successful four-axle diesel road-switchers ever produced by the builder. These 1,600hp locomotives were powered by an ALCO 244 V-12 engine which was complimented by rugged GE electrical components. The RS-3 was truly a versatile locomotive. It could be found in virtually every type of service from passenger and commuter runs to heavy-haul and local freight assignments. Original owners of the RS-3 tended to be in the eastern and central regions of the US (with heavier concentrations in the northeast and southeast).

This item has been graded per TCA standards C-6: Very Good based on visual appearance. The previous owner painted this engine green and custom lettered it.
