Favorite Railroad name?

Chessie System!

Chicago Rock Island and Pacific

This is an easy one. 

 

 

B&O

But wait, maybe this.

 

 

But I like this one as well, ah, I give up.

 

 

St. Louis, Brownsville & Mexico.

 

Pete

Pennsy/Reading/and Lehigh Valley

Aberdeen & Rockfish.

I'll second the Reading

 

Western Maryland of course.

I "try" to keep it local with no particular favorite but I have a slight preference for B&O. Local classifies as B&O, C&O, Chessie, Amtrak. Pennsy and WM are also runner ups but I sold my PRR and WM engines but keep a few pieces of rolling stock in each roadname. Of course, trying to keep it local hasn't really worked at times...........

Seaboard

L&N   Louisville & Nashville

Brent

1) Penn

2) CNJ

3) SF

4) M&E (Morristown & Erie

New York Central

Delaware & Hudson first, and then tied between Wabash, NYC, GM&O, GTW and Pere Marquette.

 

All of this might be moot because I'm leaning more toward trolleys in my old age...

 

 

Jeff C

New York Central and Nickel Plate Road.

Well, being in Calgary, the headquarters of Canadian Pacific or CP as it is now known, is my favorite in a tie with A T & S F.

Well let me remember. Oh yes, it's The Milwaukee Road. Don

 

Either this:

 

 

Or maybe this:

 

PRR followed by th W&ARR.

 

Andy

B&M, NYNH&H, NYC.

Andre.

This one has been my favorite since I was a kid, seduced, no doubt by the Santa Fe ads of the time.  Tied for second place - B&O, DL&W (and E-L), Penn, NYC, NH, NP and AMTRAK!  I guess.

Southern Railroad

Look Ahead Look South!

 

 Southern Crescent Limited & Southern Kanawha Excursion Train

Ken

Hands down The Santa Fe!

Why, that would have to be the Soo Line. And the B&O if you need a second one. 

Ha ha ha, do you have any doubt about mine?

Long Island Rail Road

 

4-6-0 #21 heading West out of Mineola

 

 

Tom, is it some road in India? Don

B&O,C&O,Chessie system and of course CSX it's hard for me to not like these as they are the names that put cloths on my family's back and bread and butter on the table Dad retired from CSX with 39 years of service and still managed to farm 500 acres also!!!
