Interesting discussion about them.

Well it's old technology... no wonder repair parts are getting scarce.

GEC: I found out similar figure for a RDC-2 too.

I just think its interesting, since the 110 Series engines were introduced around WWII to replace the 71 series which had its origins in the late 1930s. The 110s went out of production in 1965, but the 71 series remained in production into the 1990s. I'm used to having "old parts" on hand at my family's diesel shop, but 110s apparently are a special case. In fact, I get the feeling that though there are many 110 engines out there, that the RDCs were probably the greatest single use for them.
