Anyone know anything about this locomotive, please? Like, who built it, what the donor core was, a few basic specs etc. Thanks heaps! Argos is a cement company that seems to be based in Colombia, but has a significant presence in the USA, especially in the south-east.
Turns out it's not a Tier 4 switcher, it's a full battery-electric. But I'd still like to know who converted it from the SW-series switcher it obviously used to be (judging by the frame).
Didn't see it myself; found it on a broker's website, with no further data. Google searches enabled me to come up with what little info I've already given. There's only one other picture of it on the 'net, from which you can see that there are no exhaust stacks, which would imply that it is a battery-electric, which would fit with the company's ethos, because they have a fleet of all-electric dump trucks at some of their mines.
