Okay Here we go - what and where is this critter?

Cheers

It looks like it say E509 or something similar on the side of the loco

GG,
It's not you, okay? I understand where you are coming from. This used to happen over on the Thomas threads on the old forum board. Some people just don't have the maturity to maintain a civil conversation. It's sad but true, especially as it seems to be intentional in this case.

To our immature friend,
So sorry, but you are mistaken (again!) as Stockham is phonetically close to Stockholm which is the capitol city in Sweden. (Perhaps you should spend less time trying to insult people on this forum and spend more time with your geographical studies. I believe you would find it beneficial.)

I did a bit of research (ain't research fun!) and I know it is fleet number E4301, a 2 foot 6 inch gauge Canadian Locomotive Works product from 1958. It was photographed at the Esteban Hernandez sugar mill.

If I'm right, I yield to anyone else who has a picture ready.

Rule question.

Are proposed, or as they say in Car & Driver "concept", locomotives allowed. I think a disclaimer stating the picture is a proposal.

Guilford Guy · February 20, 2007, 09:51:06 PM

Dr EMD- All locomotives are welcome.

Dr EMD · February 20, 2007, 09:58:03 PM

Thanks for the response.

Now where is that AMT-125 that EMD proposed a few years back? I have it here somewhere........

Is anyone gonna post?

Guilford Guy · February 20, 2007, 11:10:56 PM

Why don't you give it a shot Ben.

ben_not_benny · February 20, 2007, 11:15:01 PM

Sure, since I didn't post one last time.

This should be quite simple:

Guilford Guy · February 20, 2007, 11:24:27 PM

Looks MLW!

U-boat?

Guilford Guy · February 20, 2007, 11:33:28 PM

Nah, if it was GE fire would be coming out of the exhaust.

traindude109 · February 20, 2007, 11:48:25 PM

Well, I am better with Steam.....

I'd say it's Chinese National Railway, look at the logo on the nose. Looks like GE Loco either imported or built under licence.

Hey Doc, yep everything you said is 100% correct! I have a photograph of the builders plate somewhere, I'll try and post it later!

Cheers,

Stephen.
