You forgot Beyer-Garratts, but then again, I saw that you had Pacifics (second fav steam motive) .

I like the 2-10-4 Texas class, and the 4-12-2 Union Pacific class. And then of course, there is the Triplex...[:D]

I wish you great success with that 4-8-4, a loco worthy of restoration if any ever was.

I voted for 0-6-0 because I can't help but think that life was more involved, more intersting in a 0-6-0 due to the work that it would have been required to perform.

I voted 4-8-4, but I'm biased.... I "Own" part of one.....

In our club the quote is; "A HO modeler has a hundred Loco, here we have one Loco and 200 men"

Progress is slow but steady, we will have the Tender done this year, <Rebuilding 8 wheel buckeye trucks is a job when they weigh 11 tons each> and will move on to the boiler work after that.

Mike,

I thought I was the only one. I too love the ten wheelers and consolidations best of all.

I love the oldies...ten-wheelers, moguls, americans, and my vote was for the consolidation.
