The problem link is from a small town newspaper in Missouri.  Here is another link about the same Missouri doodlebug wreck:

Remember , these gasoline cars were in the pre diesel era.  Small enough diesel prime movers didn't exist yet.

Some were later converted to diesel.  I have operated CNR 15824, which was originally a gas electric and later converted to diesel.

I too got fed up with using Photobucket so I switched to www.tinypic.com which works very well with no user fee issues.
