I voted for the 400, but I really like the Minnesota 400 in the 40's, when it used streamlined Pacifics.

Any of the Missouri Pacific's Eagles. Guess y'all don't consider trains in the south. Get tired of reading about trains of the northeast and west.

I like the C&O's George Washington scheme the best.

Mr Rice, It's interesting that those would be my top 3 choices. As someone once said; "there's no accounting for taste."

In a world where you have the SP Daylight, the GN Empire Builder and the IC Panama Limited the only appropriate answer, none of the above, wasn't on the list of choices.

What a list! [8D]I voted with my heart here[;)], knowing most of us (with one exception) will not know the NH's "William Penn" scheme. It wasn't around very long with only the 1938 20th Century scheme getting changed earlier.

I know there are still many more to name but the space is limited, so I had to decide which to take and which to leave out. Hope you like the choice!
