Odd machine to find flathead ford powered at Hershey

They were in i think the orange feild or might have been part of the green feild. 2 scaled-down locomotives that were from an amusement park. The owner didnt have much history other then they had been in Ohio.
One was powered by a 9n tractor motor with the same bellhousing adapter as a 41 ford pickup had the bolted to a 42 to 50 ford pu open drive three speed. The other had a ford industrial 172 similar to the jubilee tractor engine but with a fuel pump. That one was mated to a 4 speed flathead ford transmissions. If i had the room for them i would love to restore both. Very heavy. Seller said they weigh was a little over 3000 lbs each.

Something else that was cool about them is they had functioning air brakes
