Conrail Cyclopedia ALCo RS/S Magazine Articles "Alco RS-32-DL721," John Nelson. Mainline Modeler. Nov 88, 36-40. General prototype overview of the locomotive, with roster and photos. HO diagram of the SP version. "New York Central RS-32," John Nelson. Mainline Modeler. Feb 89, 44-47. Not exactly an article on Conrail's RS-32's. The only railroads to order the RS-32 were the SP and the NYC. The NYC units passed onto PC, then onto CR. B&W photos of NYC units and HO diagrams. "Alco DL640: RS-27," John Nelson. Mainline Modeler. May 88, 60-64. A detailed look at the RS-27 and its demonstration units, with HO diagrams, rosters, and photos. Deals with PRR and PC, but not CR. Photos and diagrams are good for modeling early CR at least. PRR 2407, PRR 2411, PC 2401 "Alco RSD-15: The Alligator," Robert Hundman & John Nelson. Mainline Modeler. Feb 88, 58-63. No proto info given, but does include detailed rosters, scale diagrams, and photos. Useful really for PRR, but gives a good idea. "Detailing and Painting an Atlas/Kato RS-11 as PC 7605," Jim Six.

March/April 98, 11+. A detailed look at these two locomotives. Covers all owners, includes diagrams and rosters. Covers the PRR/PC/CR RSD-5, plus the CNJ RSD-4 and RSD-5's, which never made it into Conrail. Al photos b&w, except one. No CR photos, but some CNJ, PRR, and PC. "Diesel Detail: Alco RS-3 as EL #925." Model Railroading. Mar/Apr 84, 47. I don't own this issue. Any details would be appreciated. "Detailing a Conrail RS-3M," Stephan M. Koenig.

Dec 85, 75-77. Some brief background on these units. Builds an HO model of an Altoona rebuild, needing only small modifications. Uses an Atlas RS-3 model, but says the Stewart is just as good.
