This diesel-powered locomotive was rescued and brought to Brooklyn for use as our
work trains. It was built in February 1943, for the Army Corps of Engineers and
is believed to have been used in Brooklyn as part of the war effort. The original
gasoline powerplant was replaced with a more powerful diesel engine sometime before
acquisition by BHRA.

Carefully placed on a trailer
for delivery to Brooklyn.
