Whats your favorite railroad?

[Anonymous]

No one built transcontinental railroads like the master builders at Canadian Pacific. No railroad goe through more beautiful scenery! Nobody runs railroads like the Canadians. Just look at how profitable and reliable CP, CN, and VIA are compared to US railroads.

I model UP, SantaFe (pre-BNSF), Western Maryland but my favorite is Canadian National that is not on the voting list; strange since trains called it "Best of the World" last year !

It should be obvious from the overwhelming (50%) vote for other that the list is not very comprehensive!! Montana Rail Link??? What is that? SEPTA Regional Rail or NJT would have made the list on that basis.

There is only one railroad - the Standard Railroad of the World -

Chicago, North Shore, and Milwaukee. To this unrepentant "Traction Phreaque" it was the ultimate vest pocket operation. Aestheically beautiful, well maintained equipment running at high speeds along jointed rail with the triple perfumes of hot traction motor grease, crosstie creosote fumes, and ozone wafting through the coaches - the railroad experience couldn't get any better than that.

Yes, the meter-gauge Rhaetische Bahn running through the eastern half of Switzerland has the spectacular mountain scenery, the dining cars, and the occasional "krokodile" locomotive to please any fan of electric railroading. It really is a very professionally run, but I suspect economic fantasy. I might not be able to work on the North Shore Line today, but I certainly wouldn't mind marking-up on a freight local that patrols any of the subdivisions of this pristine European railway.

CSX -- in the state of GA, therefore I also run NS, ex-Conrail, and a few UP pieces that frequent GA rails.

I love the D&RGW, because My cousin, James R. Griffin went trainwatching with my dad, and then my dad gave me the D&RGW bug.

Minnestoa Commercial (the great ALCo bastion of the Midwest), LS&I, DM&IR, C&NW and the good old Milwaukee Road. CP, CN and BC Rail were good... until they retired the ALCo.s...

BTW, B-Dubbya, great tag line there, had a good chuckle over it.

My all time favorite would be the Clinchfield Railroad, how many railroads built in the early 1900's did not have to be rebuilt for larger modern equipment!
I would have to say the Southern and the Norfolk & Western follow a close second.

Why did you lump the B&O and C&O together, just because they merged to becom Chessie in '63 doesn't mean they were always a single entity. You insult all B&O fans! At least I'm not an SPF!!
