Couldn't find the engine from that 6160 but I did find a couple of other Fairbanks-Morse engines running. Here are the links, including to an opposed piston engine which I didn't know they had gotten into.

Craig, I'll dig that one out. I think that vintage of the magazines are in my "Toy Box" building with the AF trains and RC Airplanes.

Enjoy.
