Jeffrey, when I saw that cool loco, the Eagles song "Witchy Woman" started running through my mind!! (I used to know the words to every song on their "Eagles Greatest Hits" album, which I still have in LP format somewhere!!)
I only know what I know, and I don't understand very much of it, either.

Yup, an ex-Norfolk & Western GP18, built in 1959.
