If a quiz is placed after hiding the loco but smoke seen, would not most answers come up as some steam loco?

Very interesting picture - according to Hughes C-2 should be a CWD supplied in 1943. Perhaps the Canadian WPs were delivered with numbers starting with C-1 in error, and later renumbered starting at C-251

Probably the other half will be filled up in TKD and then will head south or west.

Interesting epigraphy on the brass plates: Top plate, "Surakhsha pratham", i.e., "safety first". Bottom plate just above the doors of the coal furnace, "Koyla swadisht hai", meaning "the coal is tasty". The loco appears to be tastefully decorated inside.

C-2, perhaps referring to the Canadian import of the first WPs?
