Which type of rolling stock do you like to see being hauled around your layout the most? You can choose more than one answer if you choose to...

I like to see box cars and the hoppers which carry fluids

 

[tworail]

Too many choices...

I like them all, including passenger stock or mixed use trains which are more common in Europe, for example a couple coaches and a few boxcars, maybe a tank car or two, and a hopper.

Thinking...

Geez... No one else around here has a favorite? I suppose everything puts a smile on you guy's faces

I like to see csx coal hoppers being hauled on my layout.
(they are my best most modern looking cars!):lol_hitting:

Since I'm into steam, coal cars are very important. I have several for my UP Challenger or 844.

I also have a few of the UP Overland passenger cars and 8 ALTON LIMITED passenger cars.

You really need to post pics Tuna

UP does haul a lot of coal, that is for sure...

I love seeing center beam flat cars haling building products and GATX tank cars. I think it's because that's what I see every day. I was very fortunate when I built my house it looks out on to a railroad siding that's used twice a week, and then further down about 2 blocks from my house is a twin mainline that has been very busy since they raised the clearance and put in the Intermodal yard in harrisburg. We get about a train an hour. NS w/ Conrail. There's just something about the conrail blue engines that are beautiful. I used to love the BN Scheme but BNSF - not so much.

You do not like the BNSF theme? That has to be one of my favorites... The color orange that they use makes me drool

Why did you choose bnsf train for sp trains?

Same here, passenger cars do not tickle my fancy much...

LOL, too bad I did not remember the phrase ACF when creating this poll... I am assumming that the CF is "center flow," but what does the A stand for? "Articulated" or something like that? :eyes:

 

[ntrainlover]

Im not the biggest fan of passenger cars.
I like coal!

 

[setexcowboy]

rolling stock

Ok "CENTER FLOW"

Flatcars

I voted flatcar! I don't think I could ever have too many
You can change the look of the layout by just switching loads.

Why limit yourself?They are all good!

Maybe I should of gone with Tankers?hwell:

Just found this thread..lol.

I like boxcars and flatcars most. To be more specific, I like bulkhead and center beam flat cars.

 

[Boston&Maine]

Just found this thread..lol.

You brought it back from the dead!

I actually forgot about it too... I added in a few more options which I overlooked when I first made the poll

 

[B.C.RAIL]

I like boxcars because they come in different lengths and heights. But I especially love cabooses' !!

I like surfing for old threads..never know what I'll find.
I'm looking for the thread that had the posting status.. like Gang labourer, brakeman and conductor..etc..
