Model Railroading > A Speedy Alco C-415Date: 04/15/24 17:48 A Speedy Alco C-415 Author: M-420 Showing off its to accelerate out of a full stop, BN C-415 #4010 charges out of Woodinville, WA with a cab hop featuring a nifty little NP 3D printed caboose.
With a top speed of 65 MPS, the 415 was not exactly a rail burner. But then, blazing speed was not what the locomotive was designed for. Edited 2 time(s). Last edit at 04/15/24 18:57 by M-420.

These run as good as anything avaiable on the market today.... Brian E Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 04/15/24 20:27 by M-420. Date: 04/15/24 22:21 Re: A Speedy Alco C-415 Author: atsf121 Nice!
