One of Missouri Pacific's most bizarre purchases was the acquisition of four A-B-A sets of Baldwin DR-4-4-1500 in the Babyface style carbody in late 1948. The units would not m-u with other power and were destined for a short lifetime. After a short and spotty career, they'll all be cut up, a relief to the crews that had to operate them. Their trucks and traction motors would run off more miles under RS-11's . Photo by J Parker Lamb, from my collection.
