Most of my engines are dead, or from the sixties, or both[sigh]. I plan to get 3 more SD40-2s to add to my two-2s and one plain 40, and a BLI C30-7, but that's about ten times as much as I need for my railway. I could run it with my two kato -2s and my proto SD45. Two passing sidings, 1 mile main line, 3/4 of it in tunnels. Or I could do it with two of my proto C-liners, and two of Proto GP9s

How many engines? I don't have a massive fleet, I have a small "test" fleet that I have for testing my track and sizing up sidings and whatnot for trains...

"Test fleet"
1 Athearn EMD F7-A Amtrak
1 Athearn EMD GP35 Soo line
1 Athearn ALCo PA-1 Southern Pacific ("Daylight" scheme)

Gopher State Railroad (Formerly Minnesota & Southwestern)
2 ALCo Models (Kumata) ALCo C-420 (unpainted)
1 ALCo Models (Kumata) ALCo C-430 (unpainted)
1 Atlas ALCo RS-3 (currently painted for Rock Island)
1 ER Models Baldwin "Sharknose" RF-16 (Undecorated)

So, three in the test fleet and five for the railroad.

About 50 right now, I plan on haveing 60 by the end of the year.

My "max" that I won't exceed is 60 (and that is only if they make every remaining loco I want - some of which will NEVER be made in plastic), so my collection/layout is almost complete!

I've got a total of sixteen engines. Five are steamers and the rest are diesels. I can cover all eras from about 1910 up to modern times.

O.K. So I'm very relieved here....I've known that model railroading all along is a hobby with a huge addiction involved. But for once, its great, I know I have a "problem", but never wanted to admit to it, but it looks like we're all sitting around a alcoholics anonymous table to brag - "I like trains, and I have a problem...." Just my immediate thoughts....

But its really great to see that I'm not the only person around thats happy with having more locomotives then our railroad could ever possibly handle. It gives me a sense of relief every time I step into the local hobby shop. I don't feel bad when I give in to the temptation to purchase another loco knowing all the details, dcc, sound, etc...that I can put into the project. So modeling the Carrollton, Texas area involves modeling the Fort Worth and Western, Dallas, Garland and Northeastern, and BNSF.

So with that being the case, the diesel loco count is at five, increasing to eight. And I can think of so many others that I'd like to add....

You don't live with 3 mean girls.

I have about 9-12. Small number, but it'll grow. Quality over quantity I guess. Though I have some lame, by standards, loco's, that just sit on the shelf collecting dust. Maybe they'll run again. Maybe not.

5-steam engines.
7-diesels.

Without a doubt more than I need, but nowhere close to what I want.
On the serious side somewhere over 150 from all different manufactures. I can say that you know you have too many when you are going thru boxes in the train room and find 2 proto GP9's and 4 Proto SD7's that are not assembled and are over 5 years old.
I think I have a addication.
