Ah, a typical normal day on the old UP. JK.

Im 19 a little old o well. I am a big BN fan but NS has sentimental value to me, because i drove the NS/BNSF transfer in downtown Memphis with a pair of NS Dash 9's. The only train i have driven so far but a dream come true non the less!

Long Live The Burlington Northern!

I'm 18, so I guess I'm a little old as well, but I definately like NS. I really like their paint scheme for some reason, and, kill me if you must, but I love the third generation P5s that some of their locomotives have.

Espee? Nah. I'm well past 13, but loved the NS then and still do. Heck, I remember when it was the Southern in my hometown. Those Tuxedo style SD-40s with the green and gold SR logos on the front made a big impression on me, as did the Southern's practice of setting the hood units up with the long hood as the front.

14, love NS. Also one of the best Class I paint schemes out there.

Describing other Class I schemes:

UP-Spongebob (UP stands for "Under Pacific")

BNSF- Halloween

CSX- just ugly
