Great shot
Very good and Canadian version is RS10 but Engine Alco 244
The actual MLW engine equivalent for Canada was the RS-18, the RS-10 being an RS-3 in a RS_18 hood.
We have an RS-11 at the York-Durham Heritage railway at Uxbridge Ontario but it has been rebuilt with Canadian Dominion Engineering made 251 engine and Canadian General Electric . generators and traction motors so is essentially an RS-18 in a RS-11 hood. probably from the time it was on the Central Vermont and rebuilt at Canadian National's Pointe St. Charles shops in Montreal.
I remember seeing those wonderful notch nosed RS11s smoking it up on the Long Island RR which was actually part of the Pennsy at the time.It was a great thrill as a kid to be track side and watch them go growling past me.
As a student engineer for Penn Central NJ Div. I ran a lot of these RS11's. You couldn't kill them, always worked. The only thing I didn't like was the long hood forward operation.
Some engineers preferred long hood forward operation because it gave them more protection in the event of a grade crossing accident. However it did limit visibility (much like a steam locomotive did) especially when performing switching operation. That's why many older road switchers had their short noses chopped and were converted to running short hood forward during rebuilding.
Happy Easter!
Thank you. Happy Easter! :3
My fictional railroad bought plenty of these.
And the name of your fictional railroad?
@@ironhorsehistorian9871 Chicago central & Illinois Railroad. As central Illinois Railroad is already taken by an existing real railroad.
Awesome video!
:3
Pretty sure the Morristown and Erie stopped using the RS11 a long time ago. I don't know what became of it, but I've never seen it on their property.
very cool
The RS-11 was good, but so was the GP-9; I ran both on Guilford.
Yo that’s cool!
What will the next steam locomotive be?
Wait and see. All will be revealed in time. :)
