Favorite/most Used Pro Line?

Id like to see what everyone enjoys. Whether it steam, old diesel, electric or even route. This country or that makes no difference

Ive not got many. Though ive had the 460 awhile - i had a good sit down with it for about 2 hours today just testing it out and tooling around. My favorite at present

 

The 460, APT, and AP stuff are all great. The 460 is at AP levels of quality if not even better and the included 73 is a huge improvement on DTG's orignal version. The APT is also of surprising quality for a Dovetail product.

 

The apt is fantastic, especially for the age. Have not messed around much with the 73 much but its fairly insane as well

 

Once you learn it the 73 is a joy to drive. I'm pretty sure there was a discussion on Steam where someone linked a basic tutorial on how to drive it but I forgot where the link was.

 

Despite their age the Class 86 and 87 are good to drive because the Tapchanger works like a real AC Electric
Unlike most trains where you just open the power handle you have to drive the Class 86 & 87

749006 see im a bit confused by those seperate engines, ive got wcml n and wcml shap which come with the aforementioned - they are fun to try and wrangle.
Are these the same as the stock with the route?

 

The Class 86/4 was released with WCML North - it is recognisable by the Big MU Cables under the cab windows

Later the Class 86 was released as a stand alone loco without the MU equipment and different liveries

Then the Class 87 was released as a stand alone loco

When WCML over Shap was released the 86 and 87 came with it in the BR Blue livery.

Oh yeah I completely forgot that those are pro. Get the AP sound pack and they're great!

 

Smokebox's FEF-3 is my favorite, though that is the only pro locomotive I have.

 

The USATC S160 pack is one of my favorites. The sound on it is phenomenal, especially the quilable whistle. Smokebox's AT&N consolidation is another good one and goes well with any US shortline.

 

Fef sounds amazing and it gets quite a bit of praise so ill def jot that to the list. The usatc look interesting as well due to the many regions

 

The S160 is really great. It fits in on both American and British rail systems, which are my two favorites on Train Simulator.
