My favorite is still my first Legacy purchase, the AF Big Boy. I realize it is somewhat oversize but it is fine with me. I love the fact that the UP rebuilt and ran 4014.

With Christmas approaching these gems have been favorite the last few weeks.
The Santa Shay
And the Tri-Polar. Polar Bi-Polar
My favorite is my Vision Line Challenger. I also have the Vision Line Big Boy (unpainted version) that is a close second. One of these days, I will get around to painting it.
I also have the PRR 0-8-8-0 that I fired up for the first time in a long time. Forgot that the smoke effects are fantastic, especially the blowdown "steam". I'm not a PRR fan, but this one is sure nice.

My Lehigh and Hudson River C420's. They are great locomotives, run perfect and sounds along with exhaust is fine. And I have 5 of the Legacy C420's I liked them so much. Two LHR, two Susquehanna, 1 Lehigh Valley.
Too many favorites to pick just one.

Great… it’s not just me!!! I also love the recent C-420’s. You’re one up on me - I have a D&H, 2 LIRR (one a custom run from Nassau Hobby), and Grzyboski’s custom run Delaware - Lackawanna. They are all good runners.
Gotta say my Milw Road 4-8-4 is pretty spectacular.

Considering your username and your favorite Legacy engine is a New York Central all I cane say is:
I like those Legacy 4-6-6Ts too.

As I have stated before, I was born, raised and matured in a hometown that was second only to Pittsburgh in steel production served by 5-class I roads, They were the Pennsy, NYC, B&O, Erie and the "Little Giant" P&LE. Have attachment/ties to all five.
And this tank engine is a beast! The Boiler diameter almost that of the Hudson with a wheelbase about three feet longer. Just a neat engine.

How well does that run with the foam blocking the wheels?
