Looks like a really old locomotive to me. Most cars of that age with mostly original paint don't look too great either.

No, Depending on the horsepower rating, most had a 6 or 8 cylinder inline, that was either turbocharged or not.
The AS616 has an 8 cylinder turbocharged engine, Baldwin model 608A.
All 600 series engines had a 12.75 inch bore, and 15.5 inch stroke.
If you have any other questions, I'd be happy to answer them. I work on a Baldwin Diesel.

@onrr1726 You should visit again if you get the chance. We have made wonderful improvements. The people from Geneva are Dave & Janet. Their car is the Federal. They park it there a lot. Got to ride in her last year. Amazing trip.

Yes, Baldwin had a contract with Westinghouse. Earlier, they contracted General Electric.
I work on an RS-12.
No, an in-line eight four cycle with turbo. Medium speed, around 400-500 RPM's
