Wow, I thought Alco's RS-11 was their nicest design for a diesel. that and the RS-1 are my favorite diesel Alcos. Oh, well to-each-his-own. <br /> <br />I'm uncertain of the validity of picking a favorite locomotive from a looks-only point of view. They are designed to pull tonnage and I would guess engineering put looks pretty far back in the criteria. Design for a specific purpose, safety of the crew, ease of maintenance, cost and ease of operation, longevity, interchangeability of parts and then, maybe, finally looks.
