Old EMD
I spotted this old EMD switcher from our crusie ship, shortly before we left the Tampa Ports. There are no numbers or visible reporting marks. Notice the "truckers" air horn and lense-less revolving light and the ole timey flue for an exhaust stack.

Wow! I thought I'd never see this old girl again. Back in the late 70s, I bicycled through the some of the industries near the 20th st. area (yes, before "No Trespass" signs were put up) and saw this unit.
