The ALCO RSD-15 was a diesel-electric
locomotive of the
road switcher type built by ALCO (the American Locomotive Company) of Schenectady, New
York between August 1956 and June 1960, during which time 75 locomotives were produced.
The RSD-15 was powered by an ALCO 251 16-cylinder four-cycle V-type prime mover rated at
2,400 horsepower (1.79 MW); it superseded the almost identical ALCO 244-engined
RSD-7.
The locomotive rode on a pair of three-axle Trimount
trucks, in an AAR C-C wheel arrangement, with all axles powered by General Electric model
752 traction motors. These trucks have an asymmetrical axle spacing due to the positioning
of the traction motors. The six-motor design allowed higher tractive effort at lower
speeds than an otherwise similar four-motor design.
The RSD-15 could be ordered with either a high or
low short hood;
railfans dubbed the low short hood version "Alligators", on account of their
unusually long low noses. (source : wikipedia)
