LEHX 50         
The Leigh Cement switcher at Burnsville was this mystery unit. It appears to be a heavily rebuilt Vulcan 45 ton endcab. The 45 tonner isn't an option on the website. Cab is new, and pushed to the back of the frame, hood is longer than original and was lowered, and repowered. There were only 6 of these endcabs built, so not sure which one got the treatment. Small reporting marks and number down on the frame. Cool and weird unit.
