Estimated Time: 1 - 2 Weeks The Alco RSD-15's were built between 1956 and 1960 in Schenectady, New York.  The RSD-15 was powered by an Alco 251 16-cylinder V-type engine.   Rated at 2,400 horsepower, these versatile locomotives were suited for mainline freight and passenger service.  The locomotive rode on 3-axle trucks with all axles powered by GE model 752 traction motors.  The trucks have asymmetrical axle spacing because of the position of the traction motors.  The six-motor design allowed for higher tractive effort at lower speeds than a similar four-motor design.  The RSD-15's could be ordered with either a high or low short hood, and the low hood versions quickly earned the nickname "alligators" due to their unusually long noses.  In 2022, we are offering models of the RSD-15's in N scale with DCC & Sound for the first time.  We are offering models of RSD-15's from 9 railroads in 10 distinct paint schemes.   All road numbers and paint schemes are prototypically accurate.  We are also building three models that were very similar in real life - two C&O RSD-7's and a CP RSD-17.   The models will be BLI RSD-15 models with the C&O and CP paint schemes applied.   There wasn't a lot of detail variation among the RSD-15's, and we are making three distinct models - a standard low-hood model, a standard high-hood model, and a PRR-type high hood model with different locations for the bell and horns.  Independently controllable lights in each RSD-15 model: Headlight Rear Light Cab Light Front & Rear Numberboards  Industry-leading Model Features:    Paragon4 Sound & Control System featuring ROLLING THUNDER Integral Dual-Mode Decoder with Back EMF for Superb Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC Precision Drive Mechanism Engineered for Heavy Towing and Smooth Slow Speed Operation All Wheel Electrical Pick-up ABS Body with Die Cast Chassis for Maximum Tractive Effort Premium Caliber Painting Prototypically Accurate Paint Schemes and Road Numbers Many Separately Applied Details such as Handrails, Grab Irons, Horns, Bell, and Antenna Prototypical Light Operation Prototypically Accurate Sounds for the Alco RSD-15 Diesel Locomotive Metal Kadee-compatible Couplers (2) Will Operate on Code 55, Code 70, and Code 80 Rail Minimum Operating Radius:  9 inches     Broadway Limited Imports is proud to introduce Paragon4: The new benchmark for premium HO sound-equipped locomotives.

Available for Special Order onlyShips as soon as product arrives! Estimated Time: 1 - 2 Weeks Often called the largest steam loco ever made, and certainly a contender for the Worlds Most Famous Locomotive, the Big Boy was forged under some of the most strenuous demands ever placed on a locomotive. The UP Railroad needed a locomotive that could be used to pull a 3,600-ton train over Sherman Hill and the 1.14% grade from Ogden to Wasatch, Utah without the need for helpers. When the design specifications were complete, it was decided on the use of a simple articulated, high speed, 132 ft. long locomotive sporting sixteen 68 diameter drive wheels. What they created was the longest and among the heaviest, most powerful steam locomotive legends in the world. And had not the worker at ALCO chalked Big Boy on the side of the smoke box of one of the 4-8-8-4s under construction, a name that immediately caught on, it is rumored that the name of the type would have been Wasatch, for the mountains they were built to conquer. Quote from Worlds Greatest Steam Locomotives by Eugene L. Huddleston: There were 25 locomotives fabricated in two different groups. Class 1 were locomotives #4000-4019 and Class 2 was numbered 4020-4024. The first Big Boy #4000 was delivered to Omaha, NE on September 5, 1941.  The Union Pacific Railroad's commitment to the Big Boy required them to replace the lighter rail and straighten out many miles of track for clearance as well as to resize elements of their service areas (such as turntable lengths, etc.) for the entire line these locos would run on. The Big Boys demonstrated fantastic strength and speed as they faced these challenges throughout their storied careers. With the total mileage on the Big Boy fleet being approximately 1,000,000 miles for each locomotive, one must say that they earned their reputation. Several examples remain in museums around the country but silently they sit as a visual echo to the thunder that once made them revered throughout the landscape that the Big Boys dominated. In our first production of this model in N scale, BLI is modeling the Union Pacific Big Boy with these notable features: Accurately modeled front end with appropriate aftercooler system for each class Accurately modeled 25-C-100 and 25-C-400 tender, appropriate for each class Accurately modeled oil tender for #4014 which operates in excursion service today Two models painted in attractive two-tone gray paint schemes that the Big Boys never received in real life  Industry-leading Model Features:    Paragon4 Sound & Control System featuring ROLLING THUNDER Integral Dual-Mode Decoder with Back EMF for Superb Slow Speed Operation in DC and DCC Precision Drive Mechanism Engineered for Heavy Towing and Smooth Slow Speed Operation Operating Smoke Unit with On/Off Switch Six Drivers and All Tender Wheels Pick-up Electricity from Track Die Cast Locomotive Body with Die Cast Chassis for Heavier Weight and Maximum Tractive Effort Rubber Tires on Two Drivers for Additional Tractive Effort Premium Caliber Painting Prototypically Accurate Paint Schemes and Road Numbers Many Separately Applied Details such as Handrails, Grab Irons, Piping, Tender Ladders, Whistle, and Bell Prototypical Headlight and Rear Light Operation Separately Controllable Cab Light and Lighted Numberboards Prototypically Accurate Sounds for the Union Pacific Big Boy Operating Microtrains-compatible Couplers Will Operate on Code 55, Code 70, and Code 80 Rail Minimum Operating Radius:  9.75 inches     Broadway Limited Imports is proud to introduce Paragon4: The new benchmark for premium HO sound-equipped locomotives.
