Center Cab locomotive?

What model and maker?[sigh]

No idea what model, as for make I would guess Plymouth or one of those industrial diesel manufacturers.

Not sure, but it looks like a GE locomotive based on the window type, truck frame type, and under-chassie placement.

It is a Whitcomb engine made in the late 40’s. Most of them wound up in industrial service.

Looks like a GE 50T (still has the cute noses and the cab, but has the non-siderod (that means it has 2 traction motors on each truck) trucks) that has a lowered cab for some industrial purpose.

A friend told me that it looked like a vulcan center cab

Phil – GE 50 tonners had only two traction motors (D77, if memory serves) mounted on the inner axles and chain driven to the outer axles. May not be true for all, but it was my experience with 'em. Also – 50s look a heckuva lot like a 44-ton.

I rescind my Whitcomb reply I also believe it is a Vulcan from the same era.
