The RF16 represented Baldwin\'s redesigned early cab-style Diesel
designed for freight service, in competition with Electro-Motive\'s F-
series and Alco’s FA, it was the best selling cab unit Baldwin built
with more than 150 units outshopped.
The difference between the earlier DR4-4-1500, and later RF16
was the latter\'s use of an Elliott turbocharger which added an extra
100 horsepower. There were also very minor revisions to the RF16
body shell.
The RF16 began production in 1950 featuring Baldwin\'s latest
608A prime mover producing 1,600 horsepower. Its introduction fol-
lowed that of the late-era DR4-4-1500 model sporting the famed
\"Shark Nose\" carbody. With calls to replace the original, unpopular
\"Baby Face\" carbody, Baldwin contracted with Hadley, Ryder &
Pedersen for a complete redesign. They came up with the classic
\"Shark Nose\" concept, which gave Baldwin\'s late-era cab models
an entirely unique look which was also applied to the BP20 pas-
senger model. Andy’s depiction of the RF16 in NYC’s “Lightning
Stripe” paint scheme, under a lightning strike, will not disappoint!
