Wisconsin Public Service

Wisconsin Public Service #702 is a Plymouth JGT class 20-ton diesel locomotive.
==History==
The locomotive was built in 1950 for the Wisconsin Public Service Company. It eventually came into the ownership of the National Railroad Museum in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
==Thomas the Tank Engine==
In 1996, the NRM rebuilt #702 into the first Thomas replica used for the first "Day Out With Thomas" event in America. The engine was given a Thomas outline, and the frames were modified for it to be a 6-wheeler. It was shipped to the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento to take part in Railfair '99. 
The Strasburg Railroad began making their own Thomas dummies, which replaced the NRM Green Bay replica. The NRM made the Thomas replica without the consent of HiT Entertainment, and in 2010, the company ordered the replica destroyed. 
It has since been painted black, the smokebox and face ripped off and disposed of. It now remains inside one of the sheds, with the plan to eventually rebuild it back into its former shape. The Thomas pieces are still being taken off slowly, bit by bit.
