Overview

The evolution of streamlined trains lead to the sleek E units from Electromotive Corporation – a subsidiary of General Motors in 1937 with the introduction of B&O’s EA diesels and the E1’s for the Santa Fe. The E3’s were introduced in 1939 and became the first "standard" road diesel locomotive that could be ordered off-the-shelf. The E6’s were essentially the same as the E3’s and differed little in appearance.

Broadway Limited will be releasing a variety of the shovel-nosed E3’s and E6’s in a multitude of colors.
