    That's the first question that came to mind. I don't think there were any diesel engines in 1930's in Srilanka.
    What type of an engine is it? Anyone?

    PS: Found the answer....

    Sri Lanka was one of the first countries in the region to experience the convenience and haulage capabilities of diesel power on its railways. The country’s involvement with diesel traction dates back to 1935 when twin 1-C-1 type diesel electric locomotives with 800 hp Sulzer 8LD28 engines were loaned by Armstrong Whitworth of UK for trial running (Refer Fig: 7). These proved troublesome and were returned to the builders who later sold them to the Great Southern Railway of Argentina.

    In 1938 English Electric supplied three 4 coach diesel-electric multiple unit train sets with twin 180 hp Willans and Robinson engines which were used on the Coast Line providing passengers the experience of train travel with speed, comfort and cleanliness for the first time. These units were classed S1. Heavy corrosion from sea spray caused the sets to be withdrawn in 1955. Following the success of these units, English Electric provided several 180 hp rail cars (Class T1) in 1947 for operation, each coupled to a non-powered trailer car. Mention needs to be made of a 20 ton 116 hp diesel-electric shunter obtained from Armstrong Whitworth in 1934. Its entire life of over 60 years was spent at the Ratmalana Workshops prior to withdrawal in the 1990s and display at the Kadugannawa Rail Museum.

    කළුතර පාලං දෙක. පරණ පාලම තීනවා ඒ කාලේ ච්යිත්‍ය හදල නැද්ද කොහෙද. ස්ටේෂමෙන් පස්සේ විද්‍යාලේ ඉස්සරහ ගගේ කොටස පේනවා ලොකු වෙනසක් වෙලා නෑ පයාගලත් එහෙමයි.
