Here is an HOn3 Lambert Cooke 2-6-0:

As I recall, this was the first HOn3 C&S engine that was factory powered with a can motor.
The flat domes and 4-pane forward cab window say C&S number 6 to me.
I owned one back in the early 1980s. As I recall they were sturdy little engines. The tender shell is hollow, no interior details, but lots of room for a speaker and Tsunami-2 decoder.  
But it certainly needs a Ridgeway spark arrestor.
