Well for myself, I like Steam, Electric's and Diesel's so for Steam I'd have to say New York Central's J 3 Hudson. For Electric's it would be a Illinois Terminal Class B Boxcab locomotive. Diesel would be a SW 1200 Switch engine.

Any Ideas On How To Make A Wheelie Bar For A Wheelchair?

Anything steam. There is just a sound that they produce that can't be duplicated by any other type of locomotive. The look and sound (and smell - from the coal) of a steam locomotive can take you back to a time and place when life was simpler. It wasn't important when you got there, just that you could get there.

As for modern stuff... Well.. GE B39/B40's aren't bad - I've grown to like them - same with the Super 7 B23-7R's. Also the ES40/44 - looks beefier than a Dash 9. The SD70 ACe is pretty neat with that boxy nose too.

N&W J class, And NYC's Empire State Express. I also Love UP Challengers.

i would like to know about express train on 7.01.2007 from TVM TO TIRUPUR THROUGH CHANGANASSERY?

I like the Hudsons for overall aesthetic balance. The smaller mikes that were used on a number of Texas RRs as well.
They could be a standard USRA design but still distinguished as engines of the MKT were. The FW&D had some nice engines as well.
