It's been a while since I've posted here(I've been having too much fun as a lurker), and I have a question that I feel that many of the people on this board can lend an answer to. I was wondering about what D&RGW/RGS engines were considered good steamers and which ones weren't. Maybe make a list. Let's say, roughly all engines is service since 1930? Hopefully, this is a topic that others here would like to learn as well.
