This model represents a phase 2 U30B
locomotive. The primary spotting feature of phase 2
units was the hood below the radiator, which was
evenly built out to the same width as the radiator.
A U30B could be differentiated from the
lower-horsepower U23B by the presence of two sets
of four tall engine access doors near the center of
the long hood. During production, the U30B was
equipped with various trucks, including Blomberg
trucks from EMD trade-in locomotives, AAR-style
trucks, or GEs own four-axle FB2
truck.
Norfolk & Western owned the most phase 2 U30Bs
with a total of 75 units; all included a high short
hood. Other major owners included C&O, Frisco
and Western Pacific. While some U30Bs found homes
on other railroads after being retired by their
initial owner, very few examples of this model are
still in service today.
