Frateschi Miniature Locomotive 3051 RFFSA Phase I HO Scale 1:87

These locomotives were manufactured in the USA, in the late 30's, by General Electric. The first 4 that came to Brazil were delivered to Companhia Paulista, in February 1940. They had 3800 hp of power and a weight of 165 tons. In total, Companhia Paulista received 22 locomotives, the last being delivered in April 1948. At c. Q. they were nicknamed "V-8".

The Central do Brasil Railroad received 15 locomotives in 1948, which were handed over to RFSA in 1957. Their name at the Central was "Escandalosa", due to their large size and the excessive noise they made during operation. In 1982, 10 existing locomotives were transferred to Fepasa. All of them were deactivated at the end of the 90s with the Fepasa privatization process, by Ferroban.
