GUYZ, I don’t know I just googled ugly steam engines and those came up. A little more “research” shows that the ugly duckling in question is an Austrian Class 57 with a condenser and draft blower attached. 😳

Ok, my asbestos suit is on. I respect this one, have ridden the real ones at Cass, and even bought one for my layout, but IMHO they look like agricultural equipment:

No problem, Forrest.
Craig: I’d also forgotten about Shays and how ugly they are as well.
You know, there are really a lot of ugly locomotives out there. 😉

My vote is the Amtrak EMD AEM-7 "the toaster"... just butt ugly: Matched with the BEER KEG cars... just makes you want to look away...

C'mon guys. No other American diesel locomotive ever made can hold a candle to the ugliness of EMD's BL-2. I thought everyone knew that. 😉 How could anything else be uglier? 🤔 And by the way Emile, NOTHING in Union Pacific's Armour yellow could possibly be ugly. Please try to remember that. 😂 never herd of this one either

Those are brutally ugly! They might take the prize. There may be some disagreement on this, but I’ve always found this one to be rough on the eyes. I'm with you, Emile. I love steamers but the Yellow Belly is the one steamer that makes me ask, "What were they thinking?" It truly is proof that beauty is in the eye of the beholder......and I don't want to behold this one. As for electrics, it's easy for me: they're all ugly except for the GG1. As for diesels, that's easy too: they're all ugly except for E or F units.
