Introduction

MTH 81-2006-3 HO Scale EMD F3A Diesel (Non-Powered) Christmas / North Pole 1224

Like New Used

The EMD F-unit, built by the Electro-Motive Division of General Motors, was “the diesel that did it” – vanquished the steam engine from American railroads.

In 1939-40, a quartet of F-units barnstormed across 35 states, logging 83,764 miles on 20 railroads and proving once and for all that diesels were the wave of the future. While other diesel manufacturers competed with EMD, the various versions of the ubiquitous F unit – FT, F3, and F7 – became the icons of the diesel revolution.
