Its a Brill
Its from Cuba
It was on a line owned by a sugar company - well known for there candy bars in the USA

No idea where it is now or what its doing
 
This Brill box motor once ran for the Washington, Baltimore and Annapolis in the DC area and was built in 1929.
The car was then bought by the Central California Traction in 1936.
Then in 1967 the Western Railroad Museum in California bought the car.
On the WB&A, the car's baggage compartment was used to carry freight and various goods.
When the CCT bought it, it was used to haul freight cars so the baggage/freight compartment was no longer used.

(Even though you think it isn't a Brill, it is a Brill as that is what the Western Railroad Museum says and I would not doubt that.)

Sorry about the small pic.
What is it?
When was it built?
Who owned it?
Where is it now?
Who built it?
And to be very annoying, How many were built?

It happens to be an ex-GTW GP9r that was (at some point in time) a GP9. It is now owned by CN (as they control the GTW).
