Sale Lionel 6-34651 Milwaukee Road DD35A Non-Powered Diesel Locomotive #1537 – Your Source for Gaming Essentials Trains

Description

This is Lionel 6-34651 Milwaukee Road #1537 Non-Powered O. Milwaukee Road Non-Powered DD35A #1537. The Double Diesel. In 1963, the 5000 h.p., 88-foot DD 35 by GMs Electro Motive Division was completed. This mammoth double diesel represented a significant turning point in railroading history as many railroads shifted out of the turbine era and committed more fully, to a modern age of diesel-electrics. Initially a demonstration train unit of two GP35 and two DD 35 engines toured the country on the rails, decorated in an eye-catching red and white scheme. Both Southern Pacific and Union Pacific purchased a number of the massive engines, and at Union Pacifics request, EMD redesigned the engine as a DD 35A complete with a cab and a narrow nose at the front. Joining the prototypical Union Pacific DD 35A, new DD 35A roadnames are being offered now added to the roster, realistically decorated inwhat-if schemes which show off in spectacular fashion how classic railroad decoration might have looked on this special diesel.
