(SALE) O NEW HAVEN ALCO PA AA DIESEL
The PA was Alco's glamour girl. 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.
Recreate the excitement of first-class passenger travel with the RailKing Alco PA locomotive and matching RailKing passenger sets. Our ProtoSound 3.0 sound and control system brings you the authentic sounds of an Alco prime mover and the ability to start your train so gently you won't spill the water in the diner - and then accelerate up to scale speeds of over 100 mph, just like the prototype.
