Default Help with mystery locomotive

Well good afternoon all. I was a member before, but forgot what email address I used so I had to make a new account.

Anyway, we have a large collection of HO scale locos and rolling stock in our next auction, most of them I have identified except a few. One in particular is escaping me. If anyone here can tell me what this is, I would be GREATLY in your debt. I hate misrepresenting something when selling it.

This is one view of it:





And another:


And here is just some of what we have going out. This was taken as we were unpacking the entire lot. Still have more to go:


As I said, anyone with an idea of what this is supposed to be, I would be welcome of your input here.

Well I know my dad (the auctioneer) will take online bids if they are high enough, can't hurt to try. Just tell him his son sent you. Hey may bid for you. Seen it happen before.

Ok I managed to get a few pictures of the steam engines we have. They are grouped by the tray, which is how they are going to be sold. I talked to my dad today, if anyone here DOES wish to bid on them, just email him on the website there or at SAuction@aol.com and he will take care of bidding for you. We also have about 10 boxed diesel's, and an entire tray of unboxed diesels. Not sure if he posted the pictures on the website of those or not.

Anyway, if anyone knows what any of these are? Feel free to let me know. It's not a big rush at this point, but would be nice to know so I can keep the bidders updated on what they are. Sorry for the lighting, I took these at the last second today as we were getting ready to close up for the day.
