This selection is for the SINGLE F5A, Road #6505C. Stealth Version
Broadway Limited is producing these exclusively for Lowell Smith Signature Series for use in RailSmith production of our 1954 North Coast Limited. The colors will match the NPRHA’s drift cards so these will go perfect with our 1954 North Coast Limited train set. In this release, there are only TWO engines being produced, This A unit and a single (powered) B unit! Be sure to check out that as well.
Originally in 1947 the NP’s F3’s were delivered in A-B-B sets. It was determined that configuration created difficulty in turning the sets, so more F cab units were purchased to replace the trailing B units, thus changing the engine sets to the A-B-A configuration. By the time this Loewy Two-Tone-Green paint was applied, most of the ‘A-B-A sets’ had been broken up to serve as needed over the system.
Although this engine was a late model F3, the NP referred to them as F-5’s. The NP was the only railroad to give such a designation.
Delivery is expected to be Q4 2024. Total cost should be close to $214.
