I like ALCO. Not only did they make awesome steam locomotives (Big Boy[:D][;)]), but they also had very nice diesels, too.

As a former engineer, EMD hands down, no contest. And I'd even say SD40-2 is absolutely the best engine ever made.

I voted for OTHER because I really like Baldwin and Emc/Emd, along with a healthy interest in Alco.

Based on many aspects, all of these companies
