Your Favorite Class 1

  • [bow]BNSF[bow]
  • [:0][:0][:0][:0][:0] Only ONE vote for Southern Pacific? I can't believe it! [:0][:0][:0][:0][:0]
    Ride Amtrak. Cats Rule, Dogs Drool.
  • I have many favorites from the CNW,MILWAUKEE ROAD,SOUTHERN,SOUTHERN PACIFIC,SANTA FE,WP,CHESSIE,CSX,NS,BNSF,BN,and many of the fallen flag railroads,though I still do not like the UP. Who wants to have them as a fav,when all they seem to care about is how a product with their logo is used and all they seem to care about is a profit from it!!!
  • Wow everyone watch this a CNW guy and a Rock guy are going to agree(amen CNWFAN11)Give me the Rock Island,Milwaukee Road and yes even those Northwestern guys of the past.Today give me KCS!Living proof you dont have to merge!HEHEHE Give em Hell Mike Haverty! [}:)][}:)][}:)]

    Yes we are on time but this is yesterdays train

  • I voted for the BNSF bacause it is current and who's first Northern transcontenintal
    railroad for which it is based upon, (the NORTHERN PACIFIC.) Also my dad
    worked for the NP for 28 yrs. And the BNSF runs on the ex NP passed the house.
    BNSF is our neighber and a good one.
    GOD BLESS

    I'm with you 110%! [:)]
  • I like CSX because they have interesting trains, they have cool juctions and the have really freak'n long intermodal trains. It is not unusual apparently for CSX to run 200 car long intermodals! (that includes the articulated sections of well and spine cars)

    CN has been running some really long intermodal trains out of Roberts Bank...

    I think the longest was somewhere around 14000 feet.

    I know I often see them hitting 140, 150 cars on a normal day..... can take a long time when they are passing by at 20 Miles an hour... [:)]
  • CSX IS MY FAVORITE FOR A CHANGE! ACCORDING TO CBQ_Guy I SHOULD NOT SAY "RULES"!
    FELLOW RAILFAN,
    UNION PACIFIC RULES
  • I've always been very fond of CSX having grown up around the B&O and Western Maryland RR. My grandfather was a breakman for the B&O and I remember going to the yards and watching him work and riding the the cab with the engineers. You can't really get away with that now.
  • Kinda hard to pick one because I grew up with 3 those being Canadian Pacific, Canadian National and Burlington northern.
  • [:)] since i is from illinois I.C.R.R. is my choice since ic had more rr track in ill. than any other rr at one time for many years. a very well rr years ago. first big rr in ill. abe lincoln worked on it as a lawyer. thanks.[:)]
  • I voted for Norfolk Southern but only because the Virginian wasn't on the list.
  • I went with the BNSF
