"I dislike any RR that is mostly east of the Mississippi."

Just curious, but why? I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything, just wondering.

Mine are:

1:CSX/Chessie/Seaboard/etc...

2:NS/SOU/NW/etc...

3:CNW

4:UP/SP/SSW/DRGW/etc...

5:CN/GTW/IC/etc....

6:BNSF/BN/ATSF/etc....

The question of what CSX stands for comes up frequently on these forums, so here you go. C=Chessie S=Seaboard, X=Many More/The RR's that Chessie and Seaboard were comprised of (L&N, C&O, SCL, etc)

3. Nothern Pacific/Great Northern

4. BN/BNSF

5. Southern Pacific/ Rio Grande

Non-mainline

1.Denver RioGrande & Western

2.Sumpter Valley

3.Tacoma Eastern

4.Weyerhouser Co.

Ya, UP could fall off the fase of the earth for all I care, too many horror stories from crews, the one RR I will never work.
