Teasing the Korean Posted May 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Those are my favorite diesel engines! They were GM's F series, which were produced between, I believe, 1939 and 1960. Very art deco. They kind of epitomized the spirit of progress and motion that typified the era. The two most common models were the F3 and F7. I suspect that is an F3 though the distinctions are subtle.

As a recovering rail geek, my friend, I'm forced to point out that those are E's, not F's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those must be the later E units, that more closely resembled the F series. Granted, paint schemes and 2-D representation can be misleading.
