was setting around thinking about the motive power that our RR has. And that led to me wondering how much motive power that others have on their RR. Here is our current roster:
Atlas Dash 8-40cw CSX
Atlas GP-7 Chessie-C-O
Athearn BB SD-40-2 CSX
Athearn BB GP-40-2 Cotton Belt

I’m not even sure what my roster is.I have over 20 on my layout right now(It looks like my little people staged a walkout).I have about 40 steamers and 8 or 10 diesels.Some of my stored motive power has only been test run,then put back in the box and stored under the layout.They range from AHM,Mantua,model power,rivirossi,bachman,bowser ,LL,BLI, IHC, and roughly15 or so brass.I know that I should thin out my fleet,but they are all my "favorites"as the 5 I have out either having sound installed or custom painted.I just don’t have the time anymore to work on them as I am spending most of my time working on the layout.It IS a lifetime hobby.
By the way…It is a 36 year collection(obsession?)
Chessiefan, You need to grab those Atlas GP38 and SD35’s in Chessie before they’re gone.

well thats what i actualy run… I have seveal other engines, but they often dont run, or are in varous states of disrepair… for my compleat roster check out: http://www.trainweb.org/mattstrains/modelrr/roster.html I have everything there.
Again? The answer is always too many to list.
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=10254
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=20620
And then there are just the ones about how many locomotives.
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=35444
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=33342
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?page=1&TOPIC_ID=30327
http://www.trains.com/community/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=27673
So I list my most recent aquistitions:
BLI 2-8-2 Missouri Pacific
BLI 2-10-2 Santa Fe
Genesis F3A Southern
Genesis F7A GTS
Genesis F7A GTS (all FxAs are headed for the paint shop) yes I know I said I would never buy another Genesis but for $20 what is a person going to do?
And the lists keep getting longer and longer and longer and- - - - - -
Oh, wow. This was asked some time ago, and it took me most of the day to list them. Let’s just say that I model Big Steam during the WWII era and my main focus is on locos of the Rio Grande and Southern Pacific and that since I model those specific railroads that my roster is by necessity mostly brass imports that I USE, not just collect.
Anyhow, here’s a sort-of summation.
RIO GRANDE
2-8-0–2
2-8-2–2
2-10-2–2
4-6-0–1
4-6-2–1
4-8-2–4
4-8-4–3
2-8-8-2–3
2-8-8-4–2 (borrowed from Missabe for the war effort)
4-6-6-4–3
SOUTHERN PACIFIC
2-8-0–2
2-8-2–2
2-8-4–1(Ex-Boston and Maine)
2-10-2–1
4-8-2–3
4-8-4–2
2-8-8-4–1
4-8-8-2–4
There is also other steam motive power ‘borrowed’ from such roads as Great Northern, Colorado and Southern, Pennsylvania and Chesapeake and Ohio.
Now if I could only stop purchasing everything in steam that makes me drool, I might stop running out of storage space, LOL!
