From R. Tourett: The 42" Manila RR received 45 MacArthurs in 1944-45
shown here USATC 141 ALCO 70369, -> MRR 891
USATC 632 ALCO 73073, -> MRR 895
Both of these are among the last 5 received, and are believed to have been rebuilt from meter gauge to 42" for the MRR in 1945
withdrawn from service in 1967.

Used mainly for yard switching, short line hauls of cane sugar and hauling track ballast.
