Looking for more pics of the International Harvester Canada Alco S1

Does anybody have any more pics of this unit by chance?  Would love a pictures that show the long hood nose and a better shot of the cab end for modeling purposes.  Going to have a brass model painted up for this unit if I can.  Here is the one decent pic I can find online.  Very little info out there other than its ex Erie Lackawana #308.    Thanks in advance.   Mike the Aspie

The basic paint scheme matches Port Colburn Harbor Ry 308, which became NYLE 308 and is still operational.  But as both PCry and NYLE she has AAR trucks at the plant switcher at IH is obviously on Blunt trucks. Any info others have is greatly appreciated.  Mike the Aspie

I found one more pic, the photographer caught the nose of the unit switching cars at the Hamilton Works plant.
