History:
The American Locomotive Company introduced the PA1 locomotive in
1946 to compete with EMD's successful "E" Series passenger
diesels. The first PA1 celebrated Alco's 75,000th loco to
roll out of the erecting shop. This attractive 2000HP loco
was their high-speed passenger diesel. Having more
horsepower than their leading competitor, Alco felt that they
had a fleet-ready competitive product. PA1's were sleek,
stylish, powerful, and were very well suited for America's
passenger and fast freight trains. Additionally, their
65'8" bodies became excellent billboard advertising for the
railroads that they served with pride.
