It's an Alco 'zombie', not a slug. remote control; you can see the operator booth in the right-hand stairwell. You can see the exhaust stack (which a slug doesn't have). It probably has a 3- or 4-hundred hp genset in place of the original prime mover. This was a common conversion on Alco S-series end-cab switchers in the '80s.
