SOME HISTORY:
The first of the Baldwin DR-12-8-3000 production units was sold to Seaboard Air Lines in 1945. Each unit was 91 feet long with a total weight of 409,000 pounds (almost 205 tons) carried on 24 wheels, 16 of which were powered with 102,000 pounds of tractive effort.
Seaboard purchased another 13 of these 3000 horsepower giants in 1947. Unlike the Pennsylvania, Seaboard assigned all 14 units to freight duty. Only one, #4500, was delivered in the "citrus" color scheme which was usually reserved for passenger locomotives, though I have found no record of 4500 having served in that capacity. Distinct in a number of other ways, she seems to be the only unit with the air foiler on the cab roof and the full height ventilation openings. All the other units were delivered in the pullman green and yellow paint used for freight locomotives. The general configuration of these remaining 13 is quite similar to the Pennsylvania variant.
Retirement of these units began in 1957. Most, however, remained in service until 1960. None survive today.
This model of 4513 attempts to represent the unit as it appeared in the late 1940's
