When I was but a lad; my Mother had an expression "it's so ugly it's cute." I think she was referring to an English Bulldog at the time, well under the revised heading of

"it's so ugly you flee from the sight of it screaming!" we have this:

Diesel 753 CD class Locomotive

Not sure the country, but hopefully Erich will chime in being our Euro expert.... possibly CFK might know...

It grows on you but wouldn't be safe in eastern NA with all the level crossings!

Good One Romcat! The Windsheild looks hideous. And 1 Center headlight isn`t bad. The M2s have that. M3 Double looks better. (for people who don`t get budd/MTA, They are In New York, both on the retiring line)
