Rivarossi HO Scale Amtrak EMD F7 or FP7 Locomotive Dual Number #1617/#1618 Italy

Description: Rivarossi HO Scale Amtrak EMD F7 or FP7 Locomotive (Dual Numbered #1617/#1618) Made in Italy We are pleased to offer this collectible vintage Rivarossi HO scale model of an Amtrak EMD F7 or FP7 locomotive, numbered 1617 on the front and 1618 on the rear. Made in Italy, this model captures the classic Amtrak red, white, and blue livery from the 1970s. The locomotive features detailed side porthole windows and Amtrak branding, along with realistic wear from its years of display or use. Rivarossi produced this model with exceptional attention to detail, making it a great collectible for model train enthusiasts and Amtrak fans alike. Two Different Numbers (1617 and 1618):Having two different numbers—1617 on the front and 1618 on the back—suggests that this model might be representing two coupled locomotives in a single model unit, as real Amtrak trains often ran with two units in tandem (called an A-B or A-A configuration). In model trains, this approach is sometimes taken to represent a realistic double-header without requiring two full locomotives.Alternatively, it could simply be for display variety, or perhaps one side represents an engine and the other a dummy (non-powered) unit, which sometimes happens with older model trains Condition: Pre-owned, with signs of paint wear on the nose (see photos). This model could be an excellent restoration project or addition to a vintage collection.
