Southern Pacific 4294 is most definitely a cab-forward!!

It's an AC-12 cab-forward, the last cab-forward ever built and the only one left in the world. It can be seen at the California state Railroad Museum in Sacramento.

For 3930:



3930 was a 2-6-6-2.

3802:


Well, this is 3804, but I assume it is close to what you are looking for...

When fresh from the paint shop they also had box car red cab roofs to say nothing of window & door frames and various valve handles and injectors.
