I can only chose one loco? I want an entry for all of the above!!
How about N&W 611 and 1218?
I don't think you can beat those two double-heading a train, scale or real!!
Throw in one (or more) of the Nickle Plate Berks and you got a super party!!

Good Luck, Morpar

Try adding those Baldwin4-6-0 and 2-6-2 switcher workhorses built for U.S. Army during WW2, (41-45). These locos just stick in my boyhood memories, and would be proud to see again on my Gscale. Massive endorsement required and see if they appear in next year's new models?
