On May 17, 1941, SOU introduced their brand-new public streamlined Tennessean passenger train, which replaced the Memphis Special that ran between Washington, D.C. and Memphis, Tennessee. The SOU did not want get all tied up with their E6s pulling the Tennessean between Washington D.C. and Monroe.They decided to streamline one of their Ps-4 locomotives to pull the Tennessean consist. The result was No. 1380, which was scheduled for repairs at SOU’s Spencer Shops in Spencer, North Carolina, and was given a streamlined design created by industrial designer Otto Kuhler. Despite Kuhler being impressed with his design on No. 1380, SOU did not pay him at all.
