Well lets see antoniofp45, for locols i have a 0-4-0(CN)steam engin, GP-9(CP), GP-38(CN), FP 45(CP), and an F-series (Amtrak) Loco. the gp-38, and fp 45 are life-like models, the f-series and gp-9 are atlas, and the steamer im not sure, but i think its authern. I prefer the Time period of 50-60's when both diesil and steam could be seen running the rails, because i love the diesils of that era, but i also love the steam engine. My railroad has a theme of small rural area, because i am from a small town myself. Most of the structures from the 50-60's era are still around and used in my town, just not by the railroad anymore. there used to quite alot of cattle movement by rail from my area, along with generally farm related items. I only have freight at this time, but i plan on adding a small passenger train, most likely my f-series local with 1-2 passenger cars behind it. Presonnaly i prefer single mainline tracking with sidings, basically because that is what the majority of tracking in my area was like. For traffic movement i really like large scale switching, but i am unable to model it due to lack of funds and space, but i also like main line long haul as well as local short haul. Passenger movement is intesting, but not particularly an interest of mine. Personally I have DC control, and if i had the patience, funds, and technical know how i would switch to DCC control, because i like to operate more than one train at once.
