Is this the world's worst looking cabbage stack locomotive?
I think it's a toss-up between her and Southern Sand & Gravel 102 in Palmer, Mass as far as that contest goes.
What's particularly sad is that in both cases it was former owners in different locations that gave them the Wild West treatment, and presumably both of those awful stacks must have come off for their respective moves, only to be put back on again by the new owners!
Soo/Koppers 346 picked up her fake stack during her years on display half inside/half outside of a restaurant in Rochester, Minnesota (along with a couple of ex-NP coaches, not sure what became of them when the building was torn down). Southern Sand & Gravel 102 got hers while on display at a flea market in Hubbardston, Mass.
