The ALCO 251 prime mover was the most popular and abundant prime mover ever made by the company. While it proved to be quite successful, it sadly outlived its original manufacturer, ALCO who closed their doors in 1969. The 251 prime mover is actually still available to purchase today from Fairbanks Morse for use in Marine, Generator, and locomotive uses.
The 1800 horsepower 12cyl version of the 251B could be found in the following locomotives:
RS-11
RSD-12
RS-18
RS-36
FPA-4
FPB-4
RSC-14
FD-6
FD-7
FD-9
RSD-16
DL-560
44 Class
930 Class
The 2000 Horsepower 12cyl 251C version was extremely close to 251B in the way that is sounded. While we have full intentions to record this in the very near future the 251B is a very suitable substitute. The 12cyl 251C can be found in the following Locomotives:
RS-32
C420
M420
M420B
M420R
M420TR
HR-412
M424
45 Class
442 Class
600 Class
700 Class
A-321
The 12cyl 251 was also used in many rebuilt locomotives including:
RS-3m
C424m
and others...
As with all SELECT decoders there are up to 16 separate horns, 2 separate brake squeals and 2 bells included on this one sound profile! All changeable using CV48.
