"DCC & Sound Upgradeable"? Units denoted as
DCC & Sound Upgradeable are units that are not
sound equipped and function only in DC. Modelers
may choose to purchase an optional Sound & DCC
upgrade kit, specifically tailored to the prototype
which will add DCC and sound functionality. Upgrade
kit works only for PCM models with PCM
motherboards.
EMDs F3s began showing up on the rails
just as World War II was ending. As the wartime
restrictions were being lifted, a tremendous burden
was placed on the railroads as economic prosperity
began to take off across the U.S. The days of the
glorious steamers were numbered as many railroads
were in dire need of motive power replacements. Add
the economic advantages the F3s offered to
the railroads, and the rest is history. Progress is
always served.
The 1500 horsepower F3s were remarkably
proficient at both heavy freight as well as
fast-passenger service. With a body design that
defines what many consider to be the most
attractive diesel ever produced, the F3 offered a
large canvas for the wonderfully imaginative and
colorful paint schemes that many railroads proudly
utilized to show off their passenger trains.
EMD was to build 1107 "A" units and 694 "B" units
before production was changed to the newer
F7s in February of 1949. Dont worry,
PCM will deliver this legendary locomotive to your
layout in the quantities you order. A truly must
have piece for your layout!
