This was know as the model TR-11.

It was to be a compact version.

Chris, 
Would a TRT-11 qualify? I always thought it was essentially a 1B with some  
updates squeezed into 3 racks? It was supposedly the "PORTABLE" version,(if 
 you had a truck to haul it around in).

So we have not had any takers on the subject.

So since we had a great discussion about the TRT-1, here is the answer  for 
that series.

TRT-1A
TRT-1B

There was a C added to the end if it had the color rack added.  The  A 
version had a number of different layouts.  It was the very first  machine that 
RCA really mass manufactured.  The layout would change and  the servo amps 
were a number of versions.  The design by the B model was  stable.

Now there were several other accessories that were available.  Solid  state 
Capstan servo that was the Switch lock.  Then Pix Lock that did the  H 
lock.  Finally a monochrome ATC system.

So does anyone else know the other models?
