Calm Down, its only a bit of fun. Don't mock people for their views, I'm sure you wouldn't like it if people mocked your opinions and views which I could do but won't.

My long-term dreams are to live with someone I love, in a place I like, with a well-paid job. It's probably unrealistic, but whatever.

That statement was directed at jdan not you.

I'll drink to that!joy54.gen said:- 25s, 26s, 27s, 37s and 47s return to Scotland on all mainline routes.
- All Slammers to be reinstated on the Southern Network
- 1st Gen DMUs to replace all plastic rubbish around
- All Mainline units to be scrapped and replaced by there predesscor locomotives
That would satisfy me for a fair few years.
The Electric Locos in Poland make that 'ticking' noise (a similar noise when you pass the cl86 at Brum New Street in the 323 on BVE)AJP said:86242 said:So are you saying a 60 is better than a 31. :roll:
Defo, 86s arent hellfire they sound like a microwave :roll:

37 or 60, well close call, but I'd go for the 60 for the sheer pleasure of doing something different. I've done so many 37s now they're a little boring...

If you read it, this is dreamworlds, not what you likeFGWFan said:What is this, quiz FGWFan over what locos he prefers?
Regardless of whether it is or not, once I've typed this, I DO NOT want to have to repeat my opinions on different locos in this fashion again. Once this is laid down, this is my final thought on the subject, and should be regarded as my ranking of the locos included:
1) 43s
2) 60s
3) 37s
4) 47s
5=) 50s
5=) 52s
7=) 31s
7=) 33s
Electric locomotives:
1=) 87s
1=) 90s
1=) 91s
Carriage stock:
1) MK3
2=) MK2
2=) MK1
4) MK4
Favourite wagons: HTAs for coal, BYAs for steel.
Favourite livery: First Group, out of the privatised lot. Intercity Swallow for the nationalised lot.
Favourite route: Reading to Paddington
Favourite places to spot: Clapham Junction, London Bridge, Stratford, Ealing Broadway, Stevenage, Newport, Crewe, Carlisle.
The rest of it got included to state my views on other matters as well as locomotives. Electric locomotives got a seperate category and equal rankings as I like them all as much as each other. I've also not included quite a few classes, mainly the ones that I haven't experienced.
Now the above has been said, this is my FINAL say on this. Anyone asking me 'What do you prefer, 35s or 73s?' will NOT get answered. If it's not included above, I don't give a flying F about it.
Oh, and to give you the simple answer, I prefer a 37 over a 31 ANY day. 31s should be scrapped, they're flaming terrible.
There. Now let's put this subject to rest.
