I looked it up here as given by Audiodoc.
The engine was an American invention and the photos don't show the other side of the locomotive has the same powertrain.

And, just to recall, this is what normal (?) trains look like

A pair of class 68 diesels trundle through Bangor with a nuclear flask wagon. This was a regular run to carry spent fuel rods for processing but ceased when the power station stopped operating. Two locomotives were always employed to insure against failure. Since then, a dummy run is made every year to retain route knowledge and maintain the path.

Very nice photo, Pieter!
BTW, my younger brother just passed through the Antwerpen train station this morning and told me how impressed he was, especially with the newer 4 level area. I had not mentioned to him that I had been through the old station a few times when I worked for Pioneer Electronics.
Regards,
Kelly

Great photos, Alan and Pieter!
Really nice light on that light rail train, Pieter!
Alan, I especially lie the last one with the signal tower but they are all super! Thanks for sharing!
