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! |

EMD F-3 A Unit DHL Santa Fe P/N:176-1102
Road # 21C
Santa
Fe
Delivered in 1946, Santa Fe's first F3 locomotives
featured a silver-painted body with red "Warbonnet" over
the cab. A-Units originally had three porthole windows and
a single headlight. Santa Fe was quick to make changes; removed
was the center porthole window and added was a second headlight
— this is the version we have selected to produce. In
later years, Santa Fe's F3 locomotives were rebuilt with new
fans and side panels to duplicate the appearance of the newer
F7 locomotives.

EMD F-3 A Unit DHL, S/G,
Burlington Northern P/N:176-1201 Road # 710
Burlington Northern
The Burlington Northern was the result of a
merger of several railroads including the Great Northern, Northern
Pacific, and
Spokane Portland & Seattle. Upon completion of the merger,
BN found itself depending on a fleet of inherited F-Units. Originally
numbered in the 9700 series for passenger service, the BN F3's
that remained on the roster were soon renumbered in the low
700 series. In the BN numbering scheme, A-units wore even numbers
and B-units wore odds. The road numbers we have selected are
former GN and SP&S locomotives.

EMD F-3 A Unit DHL Union Pacific P/N:176-1103
Road # 1455
Union Pacific
The "Route of the Streamliners," started accepting
delivery of Electro-Motive F3 locomotives in 1947. Intended
for passenger service, an early delivery was numbered in the
900 series and entered in UP's locomotive classification scheme
as FP-3 locomotives. In the early 1950s, the 900 series locomotives
were renumbered into the 1451 number series. Displaced by
more powerful E8 locomotives, several F-Units received freight
pilots as they continued performing dual roles for Union Pacific.
Many F3s were ultimately rebuilt to F9 specifications.
