What are the most common engine road names on your layout?

PRR. Of course.

All FALLEN FLAGS 60's to 80's time frame.

1) Burlington.

2) Northern Pacific.

3) Great Northern.

4 Southern Pacific.

5) Union Pacific.

6) Rock Island.

7) NYC.

8) PRR.

9) B&A.

10) NKP

Jersey Central

PRR

Erie

UP

Santa Fe

1. Santa Fe

2. Southern Pacific

Those are the only two roads I model (in the 1947-1951 time frame). Virtually all rolling stock is also ATSF or SP as well.

Boston and Albany 

New York central 

Boston and Maine

Rutland

C&O, -PRR,RI/RIP tie-, Lionel Lines, ATSF, NYC... the rest stand alone; Cur Ra Hee 

N&W, Southern, NS, Virginian, RJ Corman, Seaboard

 Santa Fe  80%

Ontario Northland  15%

Rock Island 5% 

Chicago & Northwestern

Achison, Topeka & Santa Fe

Union Pacific

Some Southern Pacific Equipment

1. Deleware Lackawanna and Western

2. New York Central 

Everything else is one per road name 

Now that I am a CA resident, Union Pacific equipment has taken over! A few PA locos and freight cars, NS & CSX still here, as well as a nice Amtrak set of Superliners as well.

New York Central 75%

Lionel Lines 10%

All others, too many to list,15%

#4 - Santa Fe  1%

Four L&N (2 steamers and 2 diesels)

Three NC&St (3 diesels)

All at a 1954 snapshot in time.

And not another locomotive for my layout. My Christmas layout is a different story:

Long Island

UP

AWVR

and this coming Christmas Family Lines.

In spite of my Frisco, QA&P, BN background, most of my locomotives and rolling stock are AT&SF.  

Pennsylvania Railroad.  Layout based on PRR equipment that was active November 1949 (with a few exceptions)

Interchange railroads (minimal equipment each)

-Rock Island (passenger)

3)LIRR 
4)Virginian    
5) Santa Fe

Erol ... great question:

2.  Union Pacific / Santa Fe (about even)

3.  Lionel Lines

3) Rock Island

4) Pennsy

IC, RI, Milw Rd, UP, SP and now some CNW

Fun and interesting thread!

My top road names are in order:  Erie Lackawanna, Lackawanna, and Erie. The CNJ, D&H and L&NE follow in lesser numbers.   

1.Chessie System

2. C&O 

3. B&O

4. Western Maryland

Rio Grande all the way

Terry

1, Amtrak

2. Norfolk Southern

3.  PRR

5. Santa Fe

1) Lionel Lines

2) New York Central

3) Milwaukee Road

Milwaukee road

Santa Fe

Southern Pacific

Pennsy

Estimate (quite likely out of order a bit) without actually counting up :

For Real Railroads:

1. New York Central
2. Metropolitan Transportation Authority (subways)
3. Pennsylvania Railroad
4. NASA
5. LIRR

For Fantasy or Toy Trains:

1. Disney
2. Christmas (boxcars, other rolling stock , engines)
3. Lionel Lines

Realizing now I may have mis-estimated since the question was just engines.  So probably move Disney to the end or remove it from the second list since most of it is rolling stock.
