What's your favorite bicentennial locomotive?

In honor of the upcoming 4th of July, I wanted to ask: What's your favorite Bicentennial locomotive? What scheme do you like best? I like the Erie-Lackawanna ones, the SP one, and the N&W one.
Post yours below.

Well, too many choices in Southern Pacific, which would be my first because they ran almost literally in the backyard.

But, I do like the Western Pacific units, too...

This one is certainly err, "festive" looking... Note the space between "CON" and "RAIL" on the locomotive.

So the sequel to the movie Con Air will be Con Rail?:hehe:

Coming next summer, to a theatre near you... (Buckle up!)


They somehow managed to get every creep and freak in the universe onto this one train bound for Los Vegas.

And then somehow managed to let them take it over.

And then somehow managed to stick us right smack in the middle.


Q: What are you going to do?

A: What do ya think I'm goin' do? I'm gonna save the day!

:D
 
My absolute favorite would have to be Alaska Railroad's F units, but I liked these others quite a lot too.
