Hint 1: Not a switcher

Hint 2: ALCO

ALCO DH643. An abysmal machine that put out 4,300 HP and was considered a poor performer. Three were built in 1964, three were scrapped in 1973.

I was interpreting “only three built” a bit liberally. Not that many American V12 diesels. I’m a personal fan of the 2 stroke.

“Only three built” is exactly that. Only three examples were ever created.

There are a shitload of American V12 Diesels. They’re all over the place in locomotives. Also, it doesn’t specify V12, just twelve cylinders. Could be two I6s or something else.
