In 1942 it was sold by Henry Ford to the St Louis Southwestern Railroad.  As delivered the car was standard Pullman Green with a black roof. Shortly after delivery to the Cotton Belt the roof was painted Pearl Grey. This car represents its appearance from 1953-1959 when it was painted in Cotton Belt’s interpretation of the parent company’s “Daylight” scheme, however with a silver roof to better handle the warmer climate. In 1959 it was repainted into the SP Simulated Stainless paint scheme with a red stripe on the letterboard. Following retirement in 1973 the car was donated into preservation and eventually wound its way to the Henry Ford Museum where the car is on display today.   \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSources: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMunger, Donald M., and Jeffrey Alan Cauthen. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSouthern Pacific Official Cars: Business, Private, Instruction, Hospital, and Company Service Cars\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.

It can be considered one of the most successful four-axle diesel road-switchers ever produced by the builder. These 1,600hp locomotives were powered by an ALCO 244 V-12 engine which was complimented by rugged GE electrical components. The RS-3 was truly a versatile locomotive. It could be found in virtually every type of service from passenger and commuter runs to heavy-haul and local freight assignments.

The RSD-4\/5 was externally very similar to the RS-3, having six-axle trucks as an obvious spotting feature. They produced the same 1,600hp as an RS-3, but offered increased tractive effort due to the use of a larger generator. Many RSD-4\/5s were assigned to operate in mountainous territory (with varying degrees of success) on the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and the Utah Railway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eIn seeking an alternative to the EMD SD7 the Southern Pacific Railroad purchased 23 RSD-5’s from ALCO in 1952. 9 went to Texas \u0026amp; New Orleans (170-176, 185-186) and SP (5294-5307). They were well received enough that further orders were made. These models represent the locomotives as delivered from ALCO in their Tiger Stripe Paint Schemes. The Pacific lines ALCOS were used extensively all over California and in helper service on Tehachapi where they could be seen helping both freight and passenger trains over the mountain.
