Has to be sitting on a slight curve....at least that would be my guess. Nice find....did you get any other shots of it?

The lights indicate the engine is set-up for radio control from the ground. The paint job and bell on the short hood make this look a lot like one of the California Northern engines from Napa. I wonder if this is a subsidiary?
