A BRIEF
HISTORICAL OVERVIEW OF THIS MODEL
General
Electric introduced the first "Dash" line of diesels with the C30-7.
Equipped with a 3,000 hp 16-cylinder diesel, it quickly found favor with
several railroads and became a success for General Electric. The C30-7s
are still in service today, though several have found their way to leasing
companies from their first owners.
The early production units had four windows
on each side of the cab, but rules in 1980 for making windows "projectile
resistant" eliminated the outer windows in later production and those same
windows were filled in with sheet metal on the early units.
BLI
is offering both cab styles to match prototype needs.
