I remember this engine setting at the Ohio Central's Morgan Run shops on June 12 2004. The do not fuel was written on the tank when I saw it then

So, what is the fate of this engine? Will it go back to the Ohio Central?

Certainly her trucks were retrofitted to the Ferronorte gauge (1.67 m) and now she is in use again, eventually with this same livery... As far as I know, these locos were leased and not sold, so their return to the USA is a possibility, although they are a bit old to the American railroads.
