Yep this topic has been posted before, quite a number of times. But obviously people have made new discoverys and alot of new rides have been constructed.

I think Togo, yes..... togo (a.k.a death machines) make some of the nicest trains i've ever seen. Obviously with exeptions to at least 85 percent of them wich are damn right ugly and unsafe[lol].

Here's one of my favorites ><><> http://www.rcdb.com/ig1284.htm?picture=2

Them trains are damn right awesome.
Post your favorite coaster trains with an Image File, or link.
Thanks <><> EcG[:P]

I can't find any close up pics, but I think Intamin's mega/giga coaster cars are sick.

I really like the look of the Maurer & S?????????hne Spinning Coasters, especially the custom designed ones:

Vekoma boosterbike trains. Despite being slightly uncomfortable when experiencing a large amount of force, they are really cool to look at IMO

Image

B&M dive machine cars, just because of their sheer size, are awesome aswell IMO. And they are so damn well comfy!

my favorite type is probably the re-designed morgan trains on Phantom's Revenge

I loooove the simplicity of the lap bar and the train just looks so sleek.

Meh, I don't like speedmonsters cars-kinda look like toys.

Floorless with a floor, all the way!! [:D]

Also, most of disney's trains are visually appealing, though uncomfortable.

Reason? Buzzbars.

Any PTC train with buzzbars is good in my books.

My favorite trains are the ones by KumbaK as said by a few people allready. My answer hasn't changed since the last iteration of this topic although the train that is used on the Intamin Halfpipe coasters is pretty cool.

No question, Storm Runners are so attractive, just something about them.

These are the new Zamperla Motocoaster (formerly Moto GP) trains. I think they'll turn the Vekoma ones into laughing 'stock' [flush].

is it me or does the first car in tatsu's train has got two claws on it?

and the zamperla motocoasters are really just a copy and paste from vekoma, very weak IMO
