[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by railpac [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Limitedclear Just for the record, the CPR shop was St. Luc in Montreal. What is the difference between an RS-11 and an RS-18? LC [/quote] Actually, there isn't much difference between a RS-11 and a RS-18, the only real difference between the 2 in the styling of the locomotive, the RS-11 of course had the notched carbody ends, where the RS-18 has projecting number boards and the sand filler hatch is on the roof. MLW found that these two locos were so similar that the original designation of the RS-18 was the RS-11M. Both used a 12-251 rated at 1800hp and used the same electrical systems as well. Oh and LC, is this supposed to be a test [;)]? [/quote] Not really, except perhaps the bit about St. Luc. Of course, there is a distinction between the RS-18 and the RS-18u as remanufactured by CPR. The wiring diagrams, brake system (26) and other components are different... LC
