    Norfolk Southern is definitely my favorite and in my opinion the best railroad ever. Love that BLACK and WHITE!

    NORFOLK SOUTHERN RULES!!!!

    How many times can this come up? For me, the UP, even if that can get you in a lot of trouble.

    As a non american theres a few that spring to mind, -Southern Pacific, Rock Island, C&NW, Milwaukee Road, D&RGW...but i have to say the former Atlanta & St. Andrews Bay RR....The Bay Line. I'll always remember being on holiday in Panama City FL and spending a couple of hours each morning watching trains being formed in the yard right opposite the hotel.... not to mention discovering just how long american trains are... a loco I hadnt had a picture of that week, ASAB 511 (if memory serves me right) disappeared up to the north end of the yard, i must have trekked a mile up the dirt path next to the yard, and i was about about 3 cars away from the end of the train when 511 headed back south to panama city shops... but what was instilled in me that week was what different a character each railroad (shortlines especially) have over there... very different to here in the UK.

    Of all time: toss up between the PRR and B&O. Current line would be CSX.

    As I said, the ORIGINAL NS that ceased to exist in '74. I liked their GRAY BALDWINS (and their res ones, too)
    N
    . . S
    I also like the A&EC,
    Atlantic and East Carolina
    The Old Tobaco Road
    The new ns is just an imposter. In my mind, there is only one.

    I have to agree with it. Besides Chessie, N&W, NYC, Reading, Lehigh Valley, and the Lehigh and New England the ol PRR is my favorite road
