The '''ALCO Century 624''' was a six-[[axle]], {{convert|2400|hp|kW|0|abbr=on|lk=in}} [[diesel-electric locomotive]] of the [[road switcher]] type. In 1963, the C624 (DL600C/RSD-41) was proposed for Alco's new Century series road switchers as a successor to Alco's earlier road switcher, the [[RSD-15]]. However, it was never produced. Its successor was the [[ALCO Century 628|C628]] first offered in August 1963.
