Whats on your motive roster PART 2

[Anonymous]

Greetings,

Looks like we are getting alot of responces to my first posting.

After reading them all some folks seem kinda down that there collection is not

at therapy level yet.

I for one will say my roster has taken me over 30 years to obtain. Its always a

work in progress. So there is hope for all.

Enjoy,

Mark in Texas

The level of testostrone is rather overpowering here boys! Remember the size of a mans roster does not maketh the man. Its the amount of fun he has with it that makes him the boy.

At one time, my cousin, my friend, and I had a layout that included the following-

Athearn-1-GP-50
2-SD45
2-SW-1200
1-SD-9
1-SD-40-2
3-GP-9
2-F7-A
Life-Like- 1-GP30
1-DD40-X
Spectrum-1-44 tonner

Plus a few others I can't recall. We had a layout called the RJR Lines, based in Kansas on the ex-Rock Island lines in that area. Most of the engines were in the RJR Lines scheme(blue w/orange body stripe), and a few were in predecessor paint as lease units.[8D]

I like diversity and purchase locos for different reasons.For freight,I enjoy the big ones like the SD's and other 6+ axle haulers.I also have purchased a few "used" ones that I got good deals on for no particular reason,simply like them.Other ones I bought for my planned layout railroad museum and occasional running.

My active roster,all purchased new:
-Life-Like GP-38
-A pair of Kato SD-45
-Atlas SD-50
-Kato SD-9
-Life-Like F-40PH

For my museum and occasional operation:
-Bachmann DDA-40X
-Bachmann 4-8-4
-Bachmann 0-6-0
-Con-Cor PA-1
-Alas E-7A
-Life-Like E-7A
-Kato gear with Trix F-7A shell
-Life-Like F-7B

As budget allows,I plan to add a few more to my "N" scale roster,like Dash 8 and 9,SD-70,80 and 90.I also have started "creating" a Baldwin Centipede with parts of an ill-fated DD40X...a part time project with no deadline.
