Dave Hamley from the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum forwarded me the above photo, from an unknown online source, taken (apparently recently) of
Southwest Missouri 60 in operation in Webb City, MO. It's an intriguing photo, particularly since the last I had heard, this car was operating using an on-board gas engine out of an old Corvair to power it. However it now appears that it has this interesting little thing coupled to it.
Anyone know what the arrangement is here? It looks kind of like that might be some sort of remote-control locomotive that is pushing/pulling the electric car. Alternately it could be a more standard tow-along generator powering electric motors under the car. But I simply don't know.
