Ok, from what I can tell, this is a "later" KcKeen power truck...easy enough, but I recall it being different...
Ok, here's with the motor in it....oops. Looks close to the one my old plymouth has!

just to let you know, that is not the "later" truck like Wikipedia says it is. The truck was used on the seconded McKeen Car to about the 145-47 McKeen Cars, the later design was for the "single" piece swoop truck like those on the M-23 and M-24 and the Central New York Southern Railroad #101 and #102. Also I have seen those images before, but if you want there is a switcher engine picture I found that you can use all you want. Also now on my Facebook page, and my Motley County Railroad page.
