Romanian Gypsy          
In 1973 an American company imported a Romanian diesel hydraulic to demonstrate for possible sales in the US. Named the "Quarter Horse", the unit wandered around the US and worked on the Washington Terminal for a piece before leaving for points unknown. It's shown here in the Illinois Terminal yard in Madison IL. To say it looked out of place would be quite an understatement.
