More model railroading stuff

I keep inventories of different type of H-O equipment I own. These are broken down into locomotives, freight and work, and passenger. I keep an over-all break down of each type, such as locomotive power source and car type.
Today I just updated said list and here are some interesting stats:
Of 167 locomotives 117 are diesel. There are 28 steam engines and 11 electrics. Of the electrics 9 are GG-1s in different paint schemes, an E60C, and my dad's Fleischmann loco.
I have 334 total pieces of freight and work equipment, of which 256 are freight cars. Of those box cars are the most numerous with 70 units and I have 38 cabooses and 40 pieces of work equipment.
In the passenger department I own 401 cars and 308 are earmarked for the SJ&W. The Southern Pacific is the second most numerous with 41 units, all of which are Daylight cars. I have 17 Athearn Daylight cars and 24 BLI units. Four of the BLI cars are from the pre-war Morning Daylight and were ordered by mistake. There are some differences between the pre-war and post-war cars and the average non-SP fan probably wouldn't notice, but I do and I wanted the full correct set. :=3
Of the different car types I have the most coaches, 102, of which 3 are bi-level commuter coaches, 2 are high level step-up coaches and the remaining 96 are coaches of various kinds. There are 46 self-propelled units: one AeroTrain set, 4 Metroliners, one gas car and 40 RDCs, of which 36 are earmarked for the SJ&W and 4 are for the P-RSL.
This adds up to a grand total of 902 total units and I will be holding off buying any new equipment, though I do have 3 pieces back ordered (1 passenger and 2 locomotives), which are included in the counts. This is not to say the counts won't change, as I may repair some locomotives and may receive equipment as gifts.
I also need to make a model railroading icon. :=3
EDIT: New icon is done. :=3
