The OP said he wants one engine that is good and he can run hard. Before I moved I had almost one of everything PW Lionel(except the 773) but when I tore down the layout and move I had to make some really tough choices. I like 736 especially the way the motor and gear train is laid out. Just about the smoothest and best puller I have. Want another. I have a 726rr but no magnetraction and not as smooth, I think. Second would be the turbines but that is not to say the others won't do the job. I keep about 8-9 freight cars and a caboose most of the time on the track and switch out engines. That is what they did in the old days.
