EMD F3A, CRR 800, Restored Gray & Yellow, No-Sound / DCC-Ready, N Overview
The EMD F3 is a 1,500 horsepower diesel locomotive built by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division between 1945 and 1949. The F3 was the third model in EMD's successful F-unit series of cab unit diesels, and it was the second most produced of the series behind the F7. The F3's were widely used in both freight and passenger service, and in total, EMD built more than 1,100 A-units and almost 700 B-units.
In this production, Broadway Limited is modeling A and B-units from eight railroads with prototypically accurate road numbers and paint schemes. They are offering A-B sets with Powered A-units (w/ Paragon4 Sound) and unpowered B-units, and also separate single A and B-units (where appropriate) with a full Paragon4 DC/DCC/Sound system. All of the models have road-specific details and lighting.
