This unnumbered critter sat at the abandoned Dominion Bridge plant in Lachine for many years, I am fairly certain it has been scrapped since. I'm not even completely certain of the engine, but based on internet research and old Canadian Trackside Guide's I believe it is a GE 80 tonner (serial # 31194) which was built for the National Harbours Board and was later sold to Sidbec Dosco for use in their plants in Contrecoeur and then Montreal.

    Perfect lighting. But then, if it sat for many years you certainly had a large window of opportunity. :o )

    There’s some odd modifications on that one, mainly the lack of any steps (at least on this side) and the angled cutouts on the pilot ends.
