This thing is SO ugly, it's actually beautiful! That sand box is really great. Wonder who the shop mechanic was that designed it. And that water tank. I sure would like to have her at our museum!

Anyone got a photo of what she looks like today?

NP 10 was sold last year after many years on display in Lum Park in Brainerd, MN. She's now at the Ironhorse Central RR Museum in Chisago City, MN. They're restoring her to her earlier identity as NP 927, an L-4 class switcher. Here's their page on her, including a recent pic... http://www.ironhorsecentral.com/gpage.html
