This particular RS3 has been re-engined with a 2000 h.p. 12-251 engine, like that in a C420. When first upgraded, the experimental had a one-of-a-kind, solid blue paint scheme with a yellow band through its center.

This is one of the RS3s L&N rebuilt with 251 engines which worked out fairly well, since they lasted into 1979-80. Too bad Family Lines/ Seaboard System didn't need them.
