Here in Fort Smith, Arkansas, there was a popcorn and peanut locomotive in operation downtown around the turn of the century. It was destroyed when a tornado struck the neighborhood (I believe the tornado was in 1911, but I may be wrong on that.)

From an historical point of view I doubt the pop corn theory, and I think this locomotive is more of the roasted chesnuts kind. After all, it's written 'Marrons' on it....
