Meh! All I've got is a Bachmann GP40, and a badly weathered Spectrum Dash 8 [*^_^*] .I'd have to say that the Dash 8 is my favorite, simply becasue it actually runs. (despite the mutilated wheel brushes) I can't creep the geep. [:(]

I'm hoping for an Atlas hihg hood GP9 for Christmas. I'll have to paint it myself, but that's half the fun.

Those DD40s sure look nice, but I doubt they'd be able to make into my staging tracks.[banghead]

Thanx Patrick, that photo was shot on Dean's layout during the Medina meet in September. The locos are part of my small Iron Belt fleet.

Here's one of my three second-favorite locos - a BLI CB&Q heavy Mike.

(Ignore the phony sky and background - I was just messin' around one day. Actually this area is a staging yard, and will never have scenery on it). Sorry about the large size - most of the photos on my website tend to be 200 k or so.

I don't have any photos of my favorite loco, a brass GN P-2 by Westside.

lginc,

That's okay, I was just curious. I've really developed a love for switchers recently - particularly the early diesels. I have an Alco S1 (pictured below) and Baldwin VO-660 on my layout at home.

OK, here's my two of three favorites:





The one not pictured is an SW 1200 switch engine. These three always end up on my layout running while the others migrate to their boxes.

The Cedar Branch & Western--The Hillbilly Line!
