I do like them all myself too. But not Thomas. Never was much of a fan for a talking train. :) But I guess I should be since he is a real steam train and a good money maker for them.

475 is now and will be forever my favorite...for more reasons than I can list here (there's not enough bandwidth on this server for me to go into as much detail as I could go into on this one)...

I like the #475 and the #90. You just look at those engines and you can feel the power they have. I would love to get my hand on the throttle of one of those engines. I know this isnt a Strasburg engine but my favorite (standard gauge) steam loco is Nevada Northern #40. Thats a 4-6-0. Isnt the 972 a 4-6-0 too?

I've always had 90 as my favorite since age 3, but with my recent trip, I'm starting to like 475. So, in order: 90, 475, 89, 31.
