    Voting & Rules
    You will be awarded 3 (Three) votes in this poll - one for each group. You don't have to use it this way but it would be preferable if you did.

    Out of each group, the top TWO routes in each group progresses to the Second Round. There is a Third-Place Race, in which two additional routes get to progress, for a total of eight.

    You may not change your vote after submitting it - so choose wisely.

    Can't believe the CN GP9 isn't winning hands down in the freight category. In terms of physics, sound and modeling it's the best in the game. I guess not enough people have played the Oakville route.

    Chin up, if that's the only hiccup that surfaces in this huge project, you've done much better than I would do. Building and running these tournaments is a very impressive achievement.

    You are completely right. Easily my number 1. If they made a high hood gp9, I'd LOVE myself with joy.

    Sorry. I appreciate all the effort and have picked an alternative :) you’ve done a great job to track down as many locos as you have

    I appreciate the effort but is the US getting short changed again? One choice for 7,8,9 isn't as nice as the UK and Europe's vote.
