Diesel and Electric Locomotives

The Baldwin DRS-6-4-660, known in France as the A1AA1A 62000, was a road switcher diesel-electric locomotive built by Baldwin Locomotive Works between 1946 and 1948. It was based on the Baldwin VO-1000 and was powered by a naturally aspirated six-cylinder diesel engine rated at 660 horsepower, riding on a pair of three-axle trucks in an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement. All 106 built were for railroads in Morocco and France. The designation spells out the design: DRS for diesel road switcher, six axles, four of them powered, and 660 horsepower.
