Description
This selection is for the SINGLE F7B, Road #6550B
Broadway Limited will be 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 (powered) B unit and a single A unit! Be sure to check out that as well.
In this selection, road number 6550B, will come in the BLI ‘Stealth’ version which allows you to add your own decoder or run in analog ‘DC’ mode. This is a deposit only with the balance due payable before delivery, which is expected to be Q4 2024. Total cost should be close to $214.
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.
This B unit was delivered in 1952 in the ’47 Streamliner Scheme, then painted this popular scheme in 1954 and served the railroad until BN merger date of March 1970.
