Looking in the photo below, there is one orange faced Alco. Just out of my own curiosity, who owns it and why was it here on the D-L?

The only orange faced Alcos I can think of would have been the ex NYSW, Cartier, now WNYP M636s and C636s.

It is indeed one of the ex Cartiers that NYSW had. One was sent there for some work.

The DL had it running well. It made at least one trip on a Portland Turn. Within days of returning to the NYS&W it was out of service again.
