BN U30C 5323
Title:  BN U30C 5323
Description:  BN U30C 5323, Alliance, Nebraska, September 27, 1982, photo by Jim Altman, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in April 1972 (c/n 38353), it was retired in February 1987. Although built after the introduction of the U33C (1968), the BN was more interested in tractive effort than high horsepower for its coal business, so an order was placed in 1972 for 20 U30C's (5300-5319), and followed up that order with another for 15 additional U30C's (5320-5334) before the first order arrived.
