Then it was moved to the Candy Barrel on Jefferson and now it is in the Pier 45 - Musee Mecanique. Moved 1 went to Cable Car Souvenirs and Retired<p> 6/03/2026: Still rolling well on copper. BTF<p> 8/24/26: machine was broken when I went in but I asked the manager and he was super helpful about checking if it was actually broken, figured out it wasn’t and watched me get the penny to make sure it worked.
