Interesting looking critter - It looks like they decided to modify the headlight mounting.

This is actually a GE 25-tonner; the "50" numbers on the builder's plate indicate 50,000 lbs.  The original owner was Alberene Stone Corp which I believe had a soapstone quarry or quarries in the Virginia Blue Ridge area.
