MTH 8020920 HO Alco FA-1 A/B SET Pennsylvania Rd #9600 DCC Ready New! Alco FA-1 A/B Set (DCC Ready) - Pennsylvania The American Locomotive Company, one of the nation's premier steam locomotive builders, joined forces with Schenectady, New York neighbor General Electric to build the first standardized diesel-electric locomotives in the 1920s. But when the diesel revolution began in earnest after World War II, dependability problems with Alco's model 244 prime mover doomed the company to forever playing second fiddle to industry leader EMD. The brawny good looks of Alco's FA and PA cab units, however, have endeared them to railfans and modelers for more than half a century.
Many would argue that Alco's FA-1 and successor FA-2 diesels were both handsomer and more powerful looking than their major competitors, EMD's F3 and F7 covered wagons. A signature feature of Alco cab units was the striking ribbed grille surrounding the headlight. THANKS FOR YOUR INTEREST IN OUR ITEMS.
