Bowser introduces more unique Alco RS-3 styles, never before produced in HO scale plastic versions of the Alco RS-3. based on popular road switchers constructed by the American Locomotive Co. between 1950 and 1956. With over 1,400 built for railroads in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and other countries, the long-lived diesels were popular and even in 2022 a few are in regular freight service for U.S. shortlines, while others are in preserved in museums
The RS3 variations and modifications over it's life time made each locomotive a singular specimen.

**Lombard Hobbies Recommendation - As modelers ourselves we highly recommend ONLY running DCC on DCC systems and DC on DC systems, regardless of 'Dual-Mode' capability. This gives optimum performance and safeguards the unit from possible damage from running on a different system than originally intended and from any inexperienced operator errors.
