4-S Ingalls
Posted by tatans on Thursday, February 28, 2008 1:21 PM
Every time I think I've seen everything, along comes another locomotive, it's a 4-S Ingalls diesel, sort of "different" but I guess they never caught on, GM&O used them, now model maker Ajin has a limited (200) run, got $800.00 ? ? why not eh????

There was only '1' built - not a high volume production unit.  I suspect that the GM&O got a real good 'deal' on tha unit!

One of my favorite engines I wish I had seen when it was around.  Looked like a streamlined Krasuss Mafei that had windows in the back of the cab so the crew could look over the top of the long hood.
