I agree, the old Athearn F7 is a nice loco. I have the Lehigh Valley Special Edition examples - 1 power, 1 dummy A units. The powered one will haul amazing loads and is very quiet. I fitted the Walthers "Diesel Dress-up Kit" which adds handrails and glazing, and also removed the lightbulb. <br /> <br />At the moment, my favourite would have to be my Bachmann Norfolk-Southern GP50 - Bachmann offer the only reasonably priced high-nose GP50 in HO that I know of - half the price of Athearn BB locos, and a better runner - it's as quiet as my Proto 1k locos and runs as smoothly as they do - flywheels would be a nice addition, though it runs very nicely without them.
