Hi -
I believe that it was indeed the "Kalakaua" aka "Leslie". As the tweakwood Kalakaua car was also used and both were from the HRYCo.
The "Pokaa" is Kimball's locomotive, while the "Olomana" was Best's locomotive. Both were from the Waimanalo Sugar Company on Oahu. The Olomana was stored on the WB lot before the Grizzly Flat engine house. She was donated un 1977 to the Smithsonian, and is currently on loan to the Railroad museum in Strasburg.
All thress are early Baldwin 0-4-2Ts.
Aloha
John
