Now available for sale is a gorgeous, one-year-only, Rio Grande Alco A diesel from 1962. Although this is a somewhat common locomotive, locating this diesel in high collector condition is not an easy task.
This diesel locomotive has been thoroughly cleaned, serviced, tested and is ready to run on your layout or proudly visible in a display case. The exterior colors are vibrant while the side lettering is crisp and complete. The frame, trucks and wheels are clean, but there is some light tarnishing or oxidation spots in a few locations on the frame. Lastly, there are no nicks, chips nor damage to the shell -- other than a 3/8" scratch on the roof as seen in the 11th photo above (without the scratch, the rest of the shell is graded at an 8 to 8+!). Lastly, features of the diesel include:
- Interior front headlight
- No e-unit, so it's forward only!
- Single axle drive with traction tire
