C&O 2-6-6-6: If there's an uglier articulated steam locomotive out there, I've never seen it.

Seriously, can a locomotive be more ill-proportioned?  With that single pilot wheel in front, and everything else squished in back under the smoke box, it looks like it has an overbite. And everything stretched out in back makes it look like it wants to tilt backwards. Blech.

I'm by no means a UP fan, but I'll take Challengers and Big Boys any day over an Allegheny.

Hey, whose calling whom ugly!!  

I've got great lines (some earned from wear and tear) and I'm not ill proportioned (I may be a bit round in some places though) and I'm not squished in the back under my smoke box (its just fine and works better than most at this age) and I do not have an overbite either!!  You guys need stronger glasses as the trifocals you have are clearly not helping you.   Below is my profile, see how shapely I am!
