Well, I counted my trains a couple days ago and have 119 HO scale locomotives. With that many I'm not about to list all of them. I have a little bit of everything, with a wide range of steam and diesel locomotives. I also have 78 O and S gauge prewar and postwar tinlate locomotives as well. I buy most of my trains used, so that accounts for why I have as many as I do.

So you're one of the people that beat me on the GLE engines. I go on that site all the time but every time he sells engines I (somehow) miss the bidding. I was hoping to get the the GP40-2 as the SD70I would have been out of my price range.

I only have a Bachmann UP 4-8-2 Light Mountain. I only have a small 5'x9' layout, so I only need a small roster. I hope on getting a couple more road locomotives, but I'm not sure what yet. I might get an Athearn Genesis 2-8-2 Mikado for freight or a Proto 2000 E6A/E6B for passengrs. For switching, I'm going to get either a Bachmann 2-8-0 Consolidation or a Stewart Hobbies VO-1000, or maybe even both. [:)] I might also get a Walthers Doodlebug for light passenger service.

[Hawks05]

1 Atlas GP40 CB&Q
1 Athearn GP50 BN
2 Proto 2000 GP7 RI & CB&Q

i'm hoping to get a few more CB&Q locos and a couple GN locomotives either by mail order or shows.

new one to add today.

Atlas GP40 Burlington Northern

this one i think could be my new favorite.

[Anonymous]

Mine is rather unusual, I suppose:

The backbone locomotives for my HO scale switching layout are two SW1s lettered for Walla Walla Traction Co. These were painted and lettered by Blair Kooistra and were his main motive power for a while. We swapped some motive power earlier this year -- a LL sound-equipped Geep 9 for the SW1s. Here's what they look like on Blair's previous layout.





Here's another atmospheric shot Blair took. This one makes me want to go work on the layout every time I see it.





Nice, eh? And they run like watches. I've owned and operated many a locomotive, but these two are among my favorites. You can click on the photos for a larger version.

Also on board are:
1 UP SW9
1 NP SW7
1 SP&S RS1
1 SP&S RS3


I have other locomotives in HO scale that are not in use on this layout, mainly SP&S, as well as some British Railways OO scale locomotives.

Engine rosters have a tendency to grow uncontrollably, like your lawn when you're on a long vacation! I've been back in this hobby for about 10 years now, and have an HO roster of over 150 engines! Most of these engines will never turn a driver on my new layout, so I'm in the process of "rationalizing" my fleet as well. My goal is to get down to about 75 engines, 40 of which will be regular runners.

What's my fleet look like? Off the top of my head:

On my last layout I was limited to 4-axle locos because of the curves. The COG locomotives are from my uncle who modeled them at one point. He gave them to me so I don't have model/manufacturer specs on them.
