The Baldwin AS-616 was a diesel-electric locomotive of the road switcher type rated at convert|1600|hp, that rode on three-axle trucks, having a C-C wheel arrangement.

Eighteen railroads bought 214 locomotives, and two railroads bought seven cabless B units.

Used in much the same manner as its four-axle counterpart, the Baldwin AS-16, though the six-motor design allowed better tractive effort at lower speeds.
