The Oahu had only three diesels. The two 47-toners numbered 15 and 19 built in 1943 are now in Colorado. The other was a 4-wheel Plymouth built in 1959 and numbered 45; it is now operating on the Lahaina, Kaanapali & Pacific.
The numbers commemorated steam locomotives. The numbers of the steam locomotives commemorated the ages of B. F. Dillingham and two of his children in 1889 when the Oahu started.
