GOOD MORNING: What works for me is: E-7's two digit; E-8's three digit; all steam (most of the locos) are wheel arraingment followed by when they were painted. IE: all of the Mikes are 282X; all of the Berks are 284X; all of the mountians are 482X. "X" is the order in which they were painted and added to the layout. So 2800 was the first Consolidated, and 2801 was the second. Box cars are in the 200 range; hoppers - 300; tanks - 400 and so on. BIG_BOY_4005: Length of my track has no bearing on the number of locos I need, it's strickly how much money do I have it my pocket when I walk into the hobby shop. If you've been around very long you know just what I mean. The wife and I really enjoyed your wife's response to the KISS forum. I thought my wife was going to wet herself she laughed so hard. She has accused me of getting up in the middle of the night to go play trains, but it was just a trip to the bathroom. Have blessed day and remember SANTA FE ALL THE WAY Bob
