Some of my favourite locos are these Janus class loco's from the 'Yorkshire engine company' when I worked at the steelworks we had a number of these diesel electric engines on site
They used to collect scrap from the scrap yard and pull a rake of trucks into the scrap bay where the scrap was collected by magnet cranes and put in baskets for melting in a furnace, to be honest I liked these because I worked with them,
If I had to pick a favourite steam engine, I've always liked the War Departmrnts austerity class 2-8-0
Another one of my favourites was this odd ball, a Beyer Garratt U1, we only had x1 of these in the UK, and it was used on one particular line (the wood head line between Sheffield and Manchester) it pulled heavy mineral trains and I've always liked it because it was a bit different
