About Me:
Some more things about trains that refer to me:
Favorite loco: C45ACCTE (ES44AC with CTE software)
Other Favorites: C44AC (With or without CTE software), C44-9W, C40-8(W), C41-8(W), CCRCL, SD70ACe, SD90/43MAC, SD40-2, MP15DC/AC, GP15, GP38
Locomotive dislikes: SD70M. UP has way too many of them and they get boring. To me SD70M=Trash, SD70ACe=GOOD
Favorite Railroad's in order: UP, WSOR, BNSF, IC&E.
Least Favorite: CSX. The reason why is they constantly derail, their locomotives are all the same paint, they don't have any heritage schemes on their locos and the paint is completely boring, and their crossing bells always shut off when there's gates at the crossing. Also, I see too much of their power on other railroads. I want to railfan that specific railroad, not CSX! The next railroad I severely dislike, is CN. Their locomotives are way too confusing on what type they are, and plus, they are taking over way too many things. They're trying to be another UP when they can't. Plus, they have the most boring paint scheme.
Favorite Train ID: used to be M-PRJAB but now UP only has one daily train to Janesville. :( Now, my favorite job is the 76 job in Janesville, WI.
Motto: Keep On Railroading
Layout Specs:
SIze: 4'x8'
Scale: HO
Locomotive(s): One CNW AC4400CW (Unnumbered and not working. Used to work though.) The one I'm using now is a Con-Cor CNW MP15DC. It runs fine but can't pull much more than 10 cars.
Types of cars I have: Open hopper: 7, Covered Hopper: 2, Box Car: 6, Centerbeam Flat: 1, Flat: 4, Caboose: 1.
Some other stuff is that I run on standard DC, and use Atlas Snap-Switch Turnouts. I get rid of the cheap throw that they give you and replace it with a Caboose Industries Ground Throw. I haven't done all of them yet though.

You seem to know a lot about model trains. What type of power pack is the best besides DCC or is DCC it?
