Could this be a rare look at NYO&W steam in the 21st century? I don;t now, but the odds are in our favor. On the left is a view of NYO&W 109 around 1905. It was built in Rome NY in 1890 and was a 2-6-0 (M class). Afterwards, it went through the M&U and the So. Iron and Equipment co. and then we lose track. The picture on the right is one of two steam locomotives owned by the Juan Avila mill in Matanzas Cuba. it is a 2-6-0 as well and holds many similarities to 109. We also know that at some point the engine was rebuilt by Baldwin which may explain few changes. So, is it NYO&W? That will be for our engine experts to find out :)
