[edit: sp] Hi! Also a trans girl. (But only high on caffeine, and not drunk because it's end of the month and I'm broke.) Let's get to the question that really, really defines the future.
What are the best and coolest locomotives? (don't need to be the same! and often aren't!) 🚆
I am a huge fan of AbroadInJapan. I’d be really curious to try the night train!
Not op, and chiming in for my kid, but the Southern Pacific, Daylight is a nice looking engine/color scheme (gs-4 engine). Personally, I like the balloon stack of the Jupiter. (We like steam here)
In the next few years, we'll travel out to see the 4449 in action, and although I'm not very into trains, my kid's excitement will be contagious, it's great.
