About: ALCO FA

An Entity of Type: mean of transportation, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The ALCO FA was a family of B-B diesel locomotives designed to haul freight trains. The locomotives were built by a partnership of ALCO and General Electric in Schenectady, New York, between January 1946 and May 1959. Designed by General Electric's Ray Patten (along with their ALCO PA cousins), they were of a cab unit design; both cab-equipped lead (A unit) FA and cabless booster (B unit) FB models were built. A dual passenger-freight version, the FPA/FPB, was also offered. It was equipped with a steam generator for heating passenger cars.

  • The ALCO FA was a family of B-B diesel locomotives designed to haul freight trains. The locomotives were built by a partnership of ALCO and General Electric in Schenectady, New York, between January 1946 and May 1959. Designed by General Electric's Ray Patten (along with their ALCO PA cousins), they were of a cab unit design; both cab-equipped lead (A unit) FA and cabless booster (B unit) FB models were built. A dual passenger-freight version, the FPA/FPB, was also offered. It was equipped with a steam generator for heating passenger cars. ALCO's designation of F marks these locomotives as being geared primarily for freight use, whereas the P designation of the PA sets indicates that they were geared for higher speeds and passenger use. However, beyond this their design was largely similar - aside from the PA/PB's both being larger A1A-A1A types with an even more striking nose - and many railroads used FA and PA locomotives for both freight and passenger service. Several examples of FAs and FBs have been preserved. While most are now in the care of railroad museums, a few remain in operational status on such lines as the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad, Grand Canyon Railway and the Napa Valley Wine Train. (en)

  • As locomotivas ALCo FA-1 foram compradas pela Central do Brasil em 1948, junto a American Locomotive Company e foram númeradas inicialmente de 3201-3212. xx Foram utilizadas para tracionar os trens de passageiros ligando o Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo (Santa Cruz) e entre Rio de Janeiro e Belo Horizonte (Vera Cruz). Foram adquiridas 12 unidades de 1500 hp, bitola de 1,60 m equipadas com o motor ALCo 244 (V-12) com parte elétrica fornecida pela GE. O motor diesel foi o mesmo utilizado na locomotivas GE 244 adquiridas na década de 1950. Possuiam rodagem B-B, com peso total de 108 t e velocidade máxima de 100 km/h. (pt)
