Much like the U28B, the versatile U30B was designed to be equally at home on fast freights or heavy drags but offered 3,000 horsepower from the same 16-cylinder engine used in the U28B. Almost 300 U30Bs were produced for the U.S. market including units delivered with high noses to N&W and SOU. Many units remained in service into the 80s and 90s, and by 2006 only a handful worked for shortline and regional roads. Walthers PROTO 2000 models are accurate replicas of Phase I units and feature the proper radiator arrangement under the rear intake grilles. Each features a five-pole, skew-wound motor with dual flywheels, heavy diecast chassis and applied detail parts!
