JLS Railroad Motive Power

Motive Power Banner

The JLS Railroad came into being in late 1990. Since then, engines have been periodically added to the roster.

Presently we have 35 engines on the Railroad.

Below is a picture archive of each engine on the Railroad. Included with the small picture is a description of what we use the engine for, in other words, its class. As more engines are purchased and added to the roster, their pictures and information will be added down below. The bottom of this page contains the actual roster of Motive Power. To see engines on the purchase list, visit the Future Plans, Purchases and Projects page. Since the JLS Railroad is a free lanced layout, you will find a big variety of equipment, anything from RhB electric locomotives to Narrow Gauge American Steam is found running the lines. They all do have one thing in common though, they are ALL, for the most part, LGB engines. In my opinion, there is nothing better then LGB. Some engines are 10 years old and still run as good as they did when they were brand new, only LGB equipment can say that.
