New Haven EF-3 Freight Locomotives

    Built by Baldwin (EF-3) and GE (EF-3-a), these beautiful and powerful locomotives
    had a reputation for being able to easily pull and accelerate any train connected to
    their drawbars, including 20-car strings of Pullmans and steam trailer. Designed for
    freight operations between Sunnyside, in Queens, New York, and Cedar Hill, east of
    New Haven, Connecticut, they are most easily distinguished from the similar,
    passenger EP-4, by shorter blower grilles, recessed nose doors, and lack of third
    rail equipment. However, the heavier EF-3s were also 3-feet longer than their
    passenger siblings. Beginning in 1944, the Baldwin-built units were retrofitted with
    steam boilers, and reclassified as EF-3-b. Our models feature finely finished and
    detailed, diecast metal bodies, chassis and sideframes. The models are finished
    in authentic colors and are fully assembled and ready to operate from track power
    or from live catenary through the fully articulated pantographs.
