B40-8W is my choice. Only the Santa Fe had em and early on they used to run in fast High-priority intermodal trains with Red and Sliver colors. [8D]

How come no export designs were included? My favorite would be the Blue Tiger, 3300 HP in a trim export design with AC traction.

The daily commute is part of everyday life but I get two rides a day out of it. Paul

Out of the list, C39-8. But if there were U-boats there, thats a question not even worth asking[:p][:D][:)].

Nothing makes better music than a U-Boat in run-8. But Dash-9s look cool. They're my favorites after the C44ACCTE. Well, okay... I love my MOM more than any locomotive. BUT JUST BARELY.
