Re: ALCO/MLW drawings needed

Rail Data Exchange ([email protected]) has quite a few high resolution scans of Alco erection drawings in the collection, I know for sure they have the FA-1 and FB-1. Might be your best bet, from personal experience the manual drawings can be less than reliable.

I remember the RSC-14 retaining the specification number of the RS-18, but the idea of the RS-14 possibly being a downrated RS-11 could be possible. Like you said, hopefully, someone will surface with information regarding this mystery locomotive.

I was never built for certain, I'm just curious about what it would have really been seeing there's so little information on it out there. All of the units in the DL-700 RS brand seemed to have the 251 which makes the claim of a 244 confusing to me.

The DL-703 came up some time ago in this forum, the poster saying it had a 1600hp 12-244 and being called the RS-14; I'm curious if there was anything else about it floating around.
