Baldwin DRS-6-4-1000

Diesel and Electric Locomotives

The Baldwin DRS-6-4-1000 was a diesel-electric locomotive built by Baldwin Locomotive Works between 1948 and 1949. It was powered by a turbocharged six-cylinder diesel engine rated at 1,000 horsepower and rode on a pair of three-axle trucks in an A1A-A1A wheel arrangement. Twenty were built, all for a railroad in Algeria. The name encodes the design as a diesel road switcher with six axles, four of them powered, and 1,000 horsepower.
