USS 131
Title:  USS 131
Description:  The Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Co. ordered 4 VO-1000’s from Baldwin in 1946. They were initially numbered 800-803 and were used at the TCI&RR steel mill at Pratt City, AL (near Birmingham), which became the TC&I Division of the US Steel Fairfield Works. TCI&RR 800 to 803 were built in June and July of 1946 as Baldwin construction numbers 72230, 72231, 72789 & 72790, respectively. These were the last units Baldwin built with the 8 cylinder VO engine. US Steel renumbered the units in reverse order to numbers 133 to 130, making the 131 the second to last VO-1000 built. By the mid 1960’s, all 4 units had been repowered with EMD 12 cylinder 567 engines.
