Note on back of photo "Gibbon 1888?"
M.J. Reitan Collection

Gibbon is one town west of Winthrop, just east of Fairfax. It is on the line west to SD.

M&StL #4? If so, it was delivered in 1882 and was Manchester built.

Enlargement of front number board.
No. 4 ? If you play with the contrast on your monitor it helps. See what you think.

I found this picture in my family things. I wondered if it could be Gibbon Minn.
My grandparents lived in Mpls. I also wondered what it was they are standing in front of.

It looks from the large steel wheels and the tongue on the front that this is some kind of large wagon.
The aprons and the long table along the side suggest some sort of food service operation.
I think you may be right about Gibbon. There can't be too many towns ending in 'bbon.
