Featured in the 1997 Lionel Heritage catalog, the Northern Pacific F3A-F3B Diesel Locomotive set.
"Lionel's definitive diesel - the Electro-Motive F3 - highballs into the next century with an ever-growing list of features designed with the Lionel railroader in mind. Now, combine the enhanced Lionel F3 with the Nothern Pacific North Coast Limited scheme, and you have one of the most striking diesel locomotive sets ever offered by Lionel.
Start with the F3 set's amazing array of features. The Command-equipped 2390 F3A features dual Pullmor Classic power for the ultimate in pulling effort, coasting distance, and creation of Lionel ozone! Then add the control of TrainMaster Command for unparalleled performance. Ever imagine running an F3 set independent of other locomotives located on the same track, at the same time? Your dream becomes reality with TrainMaster Command. And independent locomotive control is only the beginning. Enjoy incredible speed ranges, from creeps to highballing, total control of sound and lighting, and many more exclusive features. Just install a Command Base and CAB-1 on your railroad (available separately). It's like having the controls of a real F3A right in your hands!
Now, add the ultrarealism of the RailSounds F3 digital sound system, located inside the 2390 F3B. From the rumbling diesel roar to the piercing tone of the single-chime horn, you'll feel the distance Lionel goes to bring realism to you. Digitally recorded F3 sounds - a Lionel exclusive.
How about all-new? Try the F3A cab interior with engineer, fireman, and special lighting effects. And for uncouple-anywhere Command action, you'll love the all-new Lionel Electrocouplers on the F3A nose and F3B tail.
Other features include:

* Die-cast trucks.
* Metal steps.
* Screen roof vents.
* Long-life directional lighting (including the F3B backup light)
* Magne-Traction
* Industry-leading decoration in the beautiful Northern Pacific theme.

Travel the Mainstreet of the Northwest with the Lionel 2390 Northern Pacific set. The best just keeps getting better."
