Bulldog Nose - The NOHAB Bulldog

The NOHAB Bulldog

There were also a number of European "bulldog nose" locomotive classes, all of which were built by NOHAB or AFB (with license from EMD), also frequently referred to as "round noses". These were effectively Clyde's ML2 design modified to meet European clearance standards, and had a lower nose and deeper cab windows.

The NOHAB-built classes include the DSB's class MY/MV and MX, the NSB's class Di3 and the MÁV class M61; NOHAB's design was later used by AFB, which built the NMBS/SNCB's class 52-54 and the CFL's class 1600.
