Seventh
Release EMD F-3 A-Unit and F-3 B-Unit Locomotives
|
Part #: Kat-176-1202 Western Pacific - Road #: 802A - EMD F-3 A Unit DHL, S/G
Western Pacific
As a partner railroad for the California Zephyr (WP, D&RGW,
CB&Q), the Western Pacific supplied motive power for part
of the train's journey. When the CZ was new, this power was
often WP's F3 locomotives numbered 801 and 802. They were
built specifically for CZ use, but were eventually utilized
throughout the railroad. The attractive orange, silver, and
stainless steel scheme made the "Feather River Route"
hard to forget. |

Prototype Information — |
An
A-B-A consist of CB&Q F3 locomotives, in silver
bodies with black nose stripes and lettering, was
on the point of the California
Zephyr when it pulled out of Chicago on its inaugural
westbound run, March 21, 1949.
The
CB&Q locomotives had a "passenger" or "closed"
front pilot and lacked dynamic brakes because of the
Burlington's relatively flat route.
|
Model Features — |
These
F3 models will feature our new DCC-friendly F-unit
mechanism, as well as Kato magnetic knuckle couplers,
illuminated pre-printed number boards, and Amber LED
headlight.
The
bodyshells feature correct pilot detail and correctly
lack the roof mounted dynamic brake fan.
All
units will be powered by the powerful Kato five-pole
motor with dual flywheels with electrical pick-up
from all of the blackened metal wheels.

Description
The F-Unit is probably the most recognized diesel locomotive
in North American history. It was found on railroads from
East to West and North to South. Eastern railroads favored
a "Single Headlight" version of the F3, while Western
railroads favored a "Dual Headlight" version.
F3 locomotives were used in both freight and passenger service.
For passenger service, it was necessary for the locomotives
to have a Steam Generator to provide heat and electricity
in the passenger cars. In later years, many F3 locomotives
originally intended for passenger services were downgraded
to freight duty.
Model Features —
Kato USA is pleased to offer a new production of N-Scale F3
locomotives with a revised, DCC Friendly mechanism that will
allow drop-in decoder installation.
This production features an all-new combination of details;
it is the first time we will offer the F3 in a Dual Headlight
version. Of course, each roadname will have appropriate Steam
Generator detail according to each prototype railroad.
Models will feature our smooth Kato mechanism
and fully automatic magnetic knuckle couplers.
For the first time, the Kato F-Unit will include Lighted Number
Boards! |

Stock Checks:
Inventory is a fluid commodity. It changes by the
hour (sometimes by the minute). To retain our pricing structure
we maintain stock levels designed to turnover 6 times each
year. We cannot guarantee stock status till we have an order
in hand. All product is subject to prior sale. If we confirm
that we have it, and, while we are waiting for the order
it sells, you would be upset that we did not hold it.
We used to hold items but learned a VERY EXPENSIVE lesson.
When we held items for customers’ orders, the order
never materialized 80%+ of the time. We lost out on
the orders placed while the item was on hold. Also
we wasted staff time that could have been used to pull actual
orders.
Since we are well known for finding older stock the fact
that it may not be on our shelves at this minute does not
mean we can’t get it. So, as we spell out on our terms
pages, we don’t do it anymore. You may, however, call in and we will tell you if the items
are available and if possible attempt to locate what we
don’t have while you are on the phone. |
