How many engines and cars do you have?

[orsonroy]

WAAAYYYY too many!

In the keep pile, I've got something like 50 engines and 400 cars.
In the sell pile, I've got another 20-30 engines and 200 cars.

Last year, I sold off almost 50 engines and 400 cars!

But I'm in the process of upgrading my rolling stock and purging/replacing my engines, to create as prototypically correct a roster as I can. With onboard sound biting my wallet hard, a lot of the engines I've got in the keep pile will be going bye-bye.

I'd have to log off & check my files for the exact no. on cars but it's better than 520 frt and better than 220 psgr. All actually in service and on the RR not counting projects in process.
twhite seems to be as much a psgr freak as I am. W/O going out and listing them I've got somewhere in the nieghborhood of 2 dozen psgr trains w/ prototypically correct consists ranging from a 4 car Pioneer Zephyr to a 17 car 1955 GN Empire Builder. I'm kind of heavy on Zephyrs and Hiawathas, 7 Zephyrs and 4 Hiawathas w/ 2 more "in process".

Which era of the Prospector? My previous dining room was done in Prospector dining car decor. I picked up the reproduction china really cheap. Unfortunately when we moved there was no way to make the dining room look like a train car.

That is an interesting size that I've never heard of anyone modeling before. Any particular reason you choose it? Just a natural extention of a normal S-scale layout or something?

[ChessieFan13]

Wow youse guys have a lot of stuff.............[bow][bow][bow] Our roster contains :
p2k sd50

[ATSFCLIFF]

[DSchmitt]

Many more than I need

N Scale: 120+ locomotives, 1500+ freight cars, 40+ passenger cars

O scale 2 rail: 4 diesel switches, 1 steeplecab electric, 60+ freight cars

On30: 5 steam locos, 40+ cars, 1 trolley

[scubaterry]

Well I have 11 loco's mainly Kato and PR2000 including a BLI Hudson. Four with sound (two w/QSI and two home grown). I plan on converting all to sound eventually with the exception of the switchers. I believe I have approx 44 rolling stock. My layout is HO mid to late fifties. So a little steam and allot of Diesel. My layout benchwork and track work will be completed in the next several weeks and I can start my fav part , scenery.

[pedromorgan]

i actually cant remember. i counted untill about 75 locos but then lost track. i think between my father and i we have between 90 and 120. i would love to count and find that we have breached the 100 mark.
most of them were purchased second hand or before the prices really went up.
on the stock front i think i have about 30 coaches and about 40 freight cars. i hope to reverse the stock:/loco ratio over the next couple of years due to my recent escapades into resin casting.

almost all of my locos got run untill about 6 years ago when i went to uni and father went to the seychells. we had a garden layout and so running was very seasonal but it all got well run. now i am still accumulating stock but currently for display cabinate purpouses only due to lack of space.

Lets see. 145 locos 700 rollongstock 3 level 13ft x 25ft layout

[countershot]

10 engines, 3 steam (4-6-6-4 challenger) (0-8-0 yardgoat)(0-4-0) rest are deisles, 30 freight cars 3 passenger 5 cabooses.

[cjcrescent]

Too many of one and not enough of the other. (You figger it out, I can't) 8^D

[RedGrey62]

28 locos, over 160 freight cars and cabooses, and 8 passenger cars. 1 BLI CB&Q E8 plus 3 BLI CZ passengers cars on the way.

Redgrey

[Train 284]

About 20 engines and close to 100 freght cars with about 10-12 active passenger cars.

[twhite]

About 50 locomotives, all steam, mostly brass, and they ALL get run and frequently. As to freight cars--if I started counting, I wouldn't have time to run them. Let's just say that as far as my refrigerator car fleet alone--well, I'm planning on taking a couple of days and separating them into fleets. PFE, ART, FGEX--you get what I mean. As to passenger cars, I have enough to make up the following trains:
The Royal Gorge
The Scenic Limited
The Prospector
The Exposition Flyer
The Morning Daylight
The Lark
The Cascade
The '49-er
The Overland Limited.
An SP Mail train
A Rio Grande Mail train
A Western Pacific Mail train.
4 or 5 locals.
2 Troop Trains

[lesterperry]

This is a guess. I have about 50-60 Locomatives. Some of which almost never get run (Riverossi) And 300 plus cars 10 cabooses and 12 passenger cars. Almost forgot my 7 year old grandson has Thomas, Persy, 2 coaches and a few frieght cars

[CP5415]

Lets see, right now I have 53 locmotives, 100 freight cars & 34 passenger cars.

I have 2 more locomotives at my LHS on layaway & probably a few more freight cars by the the end of the week.

[Texas Zepher]

A whole lot more than I need or will ever be able to use. It is sort of silly actually, I can't keep track and have ended up with many duplicates.
At a swap meet today I traded - Bachman Spectrum 4-6-2, Roundhouse Climax, Athearn blue box PA, for an Altas Trainmaster. So net is -2.

For engines here are some people's rosters.

There several similar threads out there for cars but "search" doesn't seem to be working exactly properly right now so I can't find it.

[Anonymous]

30 locomotives and at least 350 freight cars no passenger cars(That's right: zilch. I hope to complete the CSX business train some day though), not including all the parts, extra track, switches, and other misc. items. Needless to say it takes up a bit of space. I need to take inventory. Also I need to get started on my new layout and a small outside diorama for photo-shoots.

[Anonymous]

I have 50 locos and 300+ cars . I like unit trains Have a 45 car intermodel, 70 car Coal Drag and a35 car consist of "Highcubes". I am going to be stating a Module for a group we are forming and want to have a 40 to 50 car consist of Billboard reefers to run on it, i am about 1/2 way on building the consist. My passenger consist are the CZ in DRGW PA-1/PB-1/PA-1 in the Silver Scheme and the Single Stripe, have a set of undecorated that i will do in the original Alco PA-1 "Black & Gold" as delivered to the DRGW.

[Anonymous]

wow i have 3 locos and like 14 freight cars

[Adelie]

Somewhere between 25 and 30 locomotives, all transition era diesels, a little over 200 assorted freight cars, 10 or 12 cabooses and 8 passenger cars. I'm done adding motive power, and will probably hit around 250 freight cars before the roster is complete. The debate continues whether or not there will be a second passenger train.

[IRONROOSTER]

In S scale I have 2 steam loco kits, 2 diesels and 1 electric. Have approx. 75 cars, some kits, some built, some RTR.
In Sn2 I have 4 steam loco kits (MDC HOn3 kits to be converted to Sn2), 1 steam loco RTR. I have 5 cars - 4 kits, 1 RTR.
I also have some HO and O engines and cars in kits, built, scratchbuilt, and RTR.
Enjoy

[BRAKIE]

Well,without looking at my great tally book-that's what I call my note book and CDs that contain this information-I suspose I have close to 300 cars and I am not sure on my engine count because I sold off 90% of my P2Ks,some older Atlas/Kato that no longer fit my needs.But,as a wild guess I will say around 60 or 65 locomotives.

[Anonymous]

1 PRR E-8, 1 0-6-0T, 1 trolly. 1 caboose, 4 passenger cars being upgraded (I hope), and about a dozen assorted freight cars. Not much but it is a start.

[Anonymous]

21 Locomotives: 5 steam, 16 diesels, 45 freight cars, 8 passenger cars and 10 cabooses. And no real layout to run them on.........sigh........
