S Gauge F-3 Diesel Engine Now In-Stock

Check Out It Out In Action In All-New Video

The F3 hit the market in an era when almost every boy in America wanted toy trains for Christmas, and F3 models quickly became a hot topic in letters to Santa. Such was the desire of railroads for publicity that Lionel® convinced the Santa Fe, the New York Central, and EMD to share the tooling costs for its top-of-the line F3. Even today, half a century later, the Santa Fe F-unit remains an icon of railroading to the American public.

Capture the excitement of the first-generation diesel era with this full-scale S Gauge model. With two flywheel-equipped motors, the M.T.H. F3 duplicates the bulldog tenacity of its prototype. Proto-Sound 3.0 offers authentic EMD 567 prime mover sounds, a first-generation diesel horn and bell, crew and station sounds, and the ability to maintain any speed down to 3 scale miles per hour. Our model features the "chicken wire" screens and rectangular rooftop dynamic brake grilles that characterize most F3s, as well as a host of added-on details — including legible builder's plates, grab irons, steam generator exhaust stack (for passenger car heating), windshield wipers, and trucks with separately-applied spring hangers and brake cylinders.
