Well, I’m partial to the Kettle Valley RR (Later KV Division of the CPR), Algoma Eastern (Later Nickel Sub of the CPR), CN, Canadian Northern, and the Kelowna Pacific/Okanagan Valley RR’s.

I can’t believe that I didn’t see this topic when it was first posted. My favorite is by far the Burlington Northern. I find it rather interesting how I became interested in the BN. When I was first getting into trains, I bought five freight cars from IHC. I just chose a road name that was common, BN. Since then it has just grown one me.
