Nostalgia & History > Thirty ThursdayDate: 08/06/20 20:45 Thirty Thursday Author: jgilmore C30-7 Thursday, that is. Here's an NS C30 leading manifest freight 48G, the successor of ALCA, out of Allentown Yard and past CP-Burn on 6/17/02. Anyone know when the C30s were purged from the roster. JG

Forgot NS had some of the "straight deck" 36s back in the day. Date: 08/07/20 16:45 Re: Thirty Thursday Author: perklocal I believe that the last of Norfolk Southern's C30-7 fleet was retired in May of 2001. Those standard cab C36-7s (8500s) must have hung on a little longer.
Date: 08/07/20 23:47 Re: Thirty Thursday Author: arrow611 The Norfolk and Western C30-7s were numbered 8003-8082. Of those, the 8010 and 8076-8080 were painted Tuscan red with Duluxe Gold lettering. There were three similar locomotives acquired earlier designated U30C by General Electric and the first low-nose diesels bought by N&W.
