Can anyone help me identify the kind of engine I saw?
I was driving through upstate NY this past summer, and just outside of Worcester, NY (rt 4?) I saw a small collection of old trains, some boxcars and a couple of engines. One of them was the strangest engine I have ever seen! It was being restored I think, but it had a head on each end, and looked to be circa 1950s. It was also electric at one time as it had the connectors(?) mounted on each end, that touch the overhead wires.
It was NOT a trolley, it was much bigger, it was definately an engine of some kind. I was hoping someone here could identify the type, and if there are pictures of this type anywhere it would be great if included.
Thanks Guys !
