Another Variant on Favorite RR Question

Trains Magazine General Discussion

Instead of people’s favorite roads, how about your favorite company that owns its own rolling stock?

I think I would have to say that my favorite would have to be the Tropicana boxcars, they are unique and very recognizable. I even got to see the entire northbound train of them headed out of the Bradenton/Tampa, FL area years ago. My grandma used to live about half a mile from the tracks that they used. Unfortunatly, about 6 years ago she moved to Tehachapi, CA, darn.[:)]
