Some interesting patterns are emerging. In The Rolling Stock Passenger category it appears pretty spread out with the Center beam and 89' Autoracks taking the lead. As for engines it not that close with a clear desire for an SD40-2 with the GS4 and the 44 Toner in second place. As for the accessories the 30+ radius curve tracks have a large lead followed by the Accessories with sounds. Surprising is that no one has voted for the Legacy Berkshire.
