As we all know, locomotives these day cost basically a fortune. That's if you don't have a job yet. But as time goes on, you get start getting a "stack-o-cash (as my friend says)," and you start looking and searching for the locomotive you want. Right now on the CONM, I have about four working locomotives. I will be getting more when I start getting a "stack-o-cash" in my wallet! The main power on the CONM will be the big railroads and their companies that they've bought in previous years. The two major railroad companies will be the Union Pacific, and the BNSF. For the Union Pacific's companies, I will use the DRGW (my personal favorite fallen flag railroad), The Southern Pacific. For the BNSF, I will use the ATSF (Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe). I would of used the Burlington Northern, but my layout isn't big enough. I also will use my own roadname loco's on the line: CONM. I will also use a leased engine from the ICG (Illinois Central Gulf) for some loco switching and shunting in yards. But for now, I only have four. Two Rio Grandes, 1 BNSF, and an ICG. I will update more as I  get more loco's in my roster!
