Well, everything on the list is first-gen diesels,although the CF7's are rebuilds.
But the selection is a bit odd. Where's the RS's, The Fairbanks-Morse H15-44 and H-16-44's, the EMD BL-2, Alco FA's, Baldwin baby-faces, any of the Diesel switchers? It's got obscure locos' (how many DL-110's were even built), but not common ones (RS-3 anyone?)

I have 3 F-7 ABB or ABA models. I have only one of any other; so I voted at the train shop.

Victorian Railways B Class (Clyde/EMD model ML2)
This loco was the second diesel mainline loco derived from the F7 for Australian conditions and apart from having 6 all powered axles it featured 2 Bulldog noses. It appeared at about the same time as the SD7 & may have been partly responsible for that loco's developement.

I voted for the E series. Those are far better than any other diesels I've seen (especially the early early models of the late 30's models) along with early diesel streamliners (And by the way, when was the last time you saw an M-10000 model or an E1?) .
