You know, this is one of those hobbies that you very rarely share with your best friends. So I thought I'd share with you my current motive roster, just because I've been doing some analysis on it. Keep in mind I only began in this hobby in late September (which is perhaps why I haven't met anyone really into the hobby yet either).
I've sorted them by power/unpower/maintenance, as well as the type of couplers they have at this time.
POWERED LOCOMOTIVES (4)
Kadee rear, front missing - ATSF #363 (SD40); SOO #730 (GP35)
Horn hooks - ROCK #643A (E-8A); ROCK #4425 (U36B)
DUMMY LOCOMOTIVES (3)
Horn hooks - ROCK #643B (E-8A); HLCX #2035 (F40PH)
No Couplers - VIA #6405 (F40PH)
MAINTENANCE/NON-FUNCTIONAL
Kadee rear, front missing - VIA #6404 (F40PH)
Horn hooks - ROCK #5884 (SD35)
Notes:
- dummy locos include those I judged not to be worthwhile fixing, so ungeared them to function as dummies
- maintenance/non-functional includes those that stutter, and those otherwise not in 100% working order (excluding coupler conversion)
- locomotives in the process of being repainted/relettered (such as HLCX #2035) included under their "NEW" road name and number
That is all.
