As jetrock stated in the "Trying to use loong engines on 15", 18" and 22" radius?" What is our fascination with large engines. Why are we as modellers drawn to the big boys and dd40a's? So tell us about your large engine and why you choose to run it on your layout. <br />If you don't model large loco's tell us why you choose not to. <br /> <br />Personally my largest engine is a Ac4400 I choose this one because I model the moderen day CSX and it is a mainstay for todays modern class 1's so to leave this one out, I feel, would be losing an aspect of what runs through the mainline in my town. <br /> <br /> <br />On the other side I run an sw1500 ini switching duties. I like the look of a sw1500 switching while an AC4400 and a sd40-2 pull a long conists of cars by the sw1500 <br />Andrew Miller
