HO F3A Locomotive with DCC & Sound, Freight FEC #501

In 1949, FEC purchased 8 F3A’s and 4 F3B’s from EMD. Delivered in their bright red and yellow scheme, they were used in many types of service. By 1959, FEC had become completely dieselized with their locomotive fleet. The vibrant red/yellow paint was eventually replaced by a solid blue scheme. After their use was no longer needed, the whole fleet of F3’s were sold to CNW.
