Product Information:
Broadway Limited Imports is excited to bring back one of the most iconic diesel locomotive families in American railroad history - the legendary EMD F3 in HO scale!
Few locomotives represent the transition from steam to diesel power quite like the EMD F-series. Introduced in the 1940s, these streamlined locomotives helped transform American railroading and quickly became a familiar sight on railroads across North America. Originally designed for freight service, the F-units proved to be incredibly versatile, handling everything from heavy freight trains to some of the most famous passenger trains of their era.
Our single A-units and single B-unit Stealth Series offering will consist of No-Sound / DCC-Ready models equipped with an MTC-21 socket to accept an after-market decoder and a speaker. A/B Stealth sets will consist of a DCC ready A unit and a "dummy" B unit (no MTC-21 board or speaker installed).All of our models have road-specific details.
