I'm one of the older guys. I own plenty of steam locomotives but I prefer the deisels because of modelinng and prototype running. I'm a SP enthusiast so they had many varities of diesels to model from, albeit, many steam locos too. But in modeling, other than the fancy new sound systems and some Sleuth smokers, the steam engines never actually sound or look like the real thing. Now the diesels aren't perfect but they run on electric motor power. For standing still steam is King but for operations diesels rule.
