The ALCO RSC-2 was a diesel-electric locomotive that rode on three-axle trucks, having an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement. 91 locomotives were produced — Used in much the same manner as its four-axle counterpart, the ALCO RS-2, though the wheel arrangement lowered the axle load for operation on light rail such as are found on branch lines.

The ALCO RSD-1 is a diesel-electric locomotive built by the American Locomotive Company (ALCO). This model was a road switcher type rated at 1,000 horsepower (750 kW) and rode on three-axle trucks, having a C-C wheel arrangement.

2024年12月27日 · The American Locomotive Company's six-axle RS1 came in two variations, the six-motored RSD-1 (C-C) and six-axled RSC-1 (A1A-A1A). While the RSD-1 saw roughly half the sales of its four-axle counterpart it was beloved by the US Army, who interestingly ended up as Alco's only customer for the model.

2024年12月27日 · The American Locomotive Company (Alco) could seemingly never outdo the Electro-Motive Division for dominance in the early diesel locomotive market. Despite this, the company would develop one of the most important layouts for how all future diesel locomotives would be built; the RS1, which pioneered the original road-switcher design.

The RSD-1 and RSC-1 were developed as six-axle developments for lighter rails, with the latter only four axles being driven. The RS-2 was built between 1946 and 1950, with 368 examples being built at ALCO and nine in Montreal. It differed from the RS-1 mainly in the new 244 series V12 engine with 1,500 hp and a

The ALCO RSC-1 was a diesel-electric locomotive of the road switcher type rated at 1,000 horsepower (750 kW), that rode on three-axle trucks, having an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement.

As locomotivas Diesel-Elétrica ALCO RSC-1 foram compradas pela SPR em 1946, sendo fabricadas pela American Locomotive Company nos EUA. Foram as primeiras locomotivas diesel adquiridas pela São Paulo Railway, e tiveram seus truques alterados para rodaram B-B, equiparando as locomotivas RS-1, compradas a partir de 1948.
