I like the transition era (40's to 50's) because I can run both steam and early diesel units. I am planning to build my layout for that era, although there may be more modern trains running through my "old" town at times. I also liked the variety of passenger trains during that time with all the various lines running both lightweight and heavyweight passenger cars. Since the different lines were competing for ridership on their passenger trains, they were more colorful than what we would have seen before and what we have seen since.
