Produced by American Locomotive Co. (ALCO), General Electric and Ingersoll-Rand in the early 1920s for the Jay Street Connecting Railroad.
It was diesel powered and was known by the model name GM-50.

Well,it's the same car.

According to my source,it's not an ALCO.

I haven't found a name for it yet only that it was manufactured by a combination of ALCO, General Electric & Ingersoll-Rand. It is referred to by the name Cyclops but I believe that's only a nickname owing to its single headlight.
Anyway I'll keep searching.......
