The C30-7 was a follow up to GE's successful U30C
locomotive design. Built between 1976 and 1986, the C30-7's
production numbers were nearly double that of the U30C,
with the locomotive
seeing use on numerous railroads both in North America
and Europe. With design changes including larger, more
prominent radiators and a "step"-like structure
to the fore of the radiators
which gave the long hood a subtly different shape to its
predecessor.
