I'm looking into getting some CSX soon..

I actually have a Chessie GP38 in N scale.. that the gf picked out.

I always thought the paint scheme and cat logo was the best look of any locomotives..
Used to see them all the time.
The GPs were the best looking locos as well.

Origional cat that inspired the logo.

I can agree with that!

The actual drawing that I showed the gf is why she magically picked that engine out.. gee imagine why?!?

Pretty much anything EMD is good in my book for diesels.

A very reliable locomotive...they were in use for almost 40 years and are still using them today on occasions in the new milineum...
Talk about getting it right the first time. They have outlasted most industrial vehicles.

Yeah.. The newer GE's aren't really that great.. (over the last 20 years approx)

My favorite engine of all time is the SD40-2

Thats me..

The new SD70ACe's and SD70M-2's are pretty awesome as well.

Here's a pic of my N scale chessie
