Available for Special Order onlyShips as soon as product arrives! 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.
