| | | Yeah, ok, this is an old thread. But, it's still on the first page and hardly contains time-sensitive information. Among North American equipment my tastes tend towards the ES4400, SD70ACe, GP38 and 8-40B. The best looking locs, however, operate in Europe: Blue Tiger SNCB (Belgian railways) Type 77 Vossloh G2000 Bombardier Talent DMU SNCF (French) X73500 diesel railcar. Shunter of unknown origin operated by the Swiss MGB. And then there's this: DB (German) ICE 3M. 330km/h, 17,000hp. Not for us in North America, of course, as the FRA requires everything here be built heavily enough to survive driving into the walls at the edge of the world....

Yep, they run these up here in Vancouver, from down south, and I must say, I really like them. |
