Well i like the name Northern.. but 'Mountain' just sounds impressive, powerful, etc. that and Climax has an interesting ring to it

My favorite engines are Big Boy´s, Challenger´s and Centennial´s. Okay, last one is a diesel [:D])
My favorite name is MASTODON. [^]
Don´t ask why. Possible because it sounds big, extreme powerful and gigantic.
When I hear this name first, I thought this is something like a 6-12-12-12-12-6!!! [:)]

I'm a Hudson, Northern, and Niagara fan but for catchy names it is hard to beat:
MOHAWK!
