lionkingcmslI have a favorite of each type of locomotive: steam, electric and diesel. They are the Southern Pacific GS-4 class Northern (4-8-4) wheel arrangement, the ALCo PA-1 diesel, and PRR's GG-1 electric.
Here are a couple of photos of them side by side, something that could have only occurred at a rail fair:
and
These photos were taken on a diorama that I built for taking such photos and the only post processing that was done was to crop out the lower portion that showed the unfinished lumber of the diorama.
The photos were taken in my back yard.
Models used are as follows. Broadway Limited Imports - GS-4; Life-Like Proto 2000 - ALCo PA-1; AHM - GG-1
While I do have a model of a PRR PA-1 I feel that the Daylight scheme does the loco justice; and the GG-1 is in its as delivered Brunswick Green, though weathered, with 5 pinstripe scheme.
