Monster locomotive

[Anonymous]

I would like to see any of the Great Northern electrics,a Y or W class in Empire Builder colors.Monsters!

while I chose the GG1, I also like the J1 and, maybe Ql, which were big, powerful earthshakers. Then there's also the lone HC1 which littered Horseshoe Curve with broken couplers and car parts because the trains it handled were more than the cars could take. Pennsy Power was real!

I agree with the Canadians, we need more locos and rolling stock from the "True North".

Sorry guys, none of the above also. I am a B&O fan. As you probably would guess, either EL3 - 5 or EM1 would be the locos of choice. One could also make a case for S1a's. (for those not of the "domer" persuasion, 2-8-8-0, 2-8-8-4, and 2-10-2)

Your Polls do the hobby a severe injustice. By not allowing people to vote for what they want you can conclude that there is a demand for a product that doesn't exist. Marketing polls are extremely complex to avoid leading the consumer. At least put an "Other" category in them.

This wasn't meant to be a multiple choice examination - merely a poll. Obviously, if there were as many categories as there were railroads, fallen flags or current, there wouldn't be any chance to figure out where to vote.

I don't see where you were not (or were compelled) to vote for any of the ones offered. Seems to me that you were content in pointing a finger instead of adding your own category. I'm sure the editors wouldn't be so high-handed as to say your choice was outside the boundaries of the poll.

I voted for the GG1 of which I have two in N scale, but I go ape when I see a J1. The Jays may be too big for my layout, but should be at home on my NTrak club's layout which has better curves.
An M1 may not be as much of a monster, but I woudn't mind one of them too.

From what I am told both BNSF and UP are doing licensing on using their name.

Why buy anything with a UP logo? I say boycott UP models until UP backs off on their ridiculous licensing demands! That might apply to the fallen flags as well.

None of the above. I would like to see QUALITY 4-4-0's and 2-6-0's. A non-UP Challenger would be nice. In the last two years we got a high quality 2-8-8-2 and 2-6-6-6 in HO with a promise of a 2-6-6-2 within a year. The big locos have been coming but there is much to be desired at the low end of the spectrum.

I'd go for a GN artic and/or a CP Selkirk - both have been done in brass but a good plastic one would be great.

Not really large...but how about the other "Kruass Maffie" (spelling) the hood unit in Ho? Yes I know there was a brass version, but come on, not all of us can afford the brass...........Blank or with a road name.......oh also that runs well......

Definiately Challenger. been up close with Union Pacific #3985 and was simply in total awe of the locomotive. Have also been close to Centennial #6936 also was impressed with it too. Will possibly be purchasing one of each of them when possible in the future when layout gets made.
