Yikes, more than I thought, and more than the 36.  As follows:

S - 4
Sn3 - 29
Sn2 - 7
Sn20 - 1

41 so far.

Plus: 
G - 7  (I do have a garden railroad in the back yard.)
O (3-rail) - 1 (This is the real oddball, but it was a gift.)
AF (S) - 14  (Trains from my youth.)
HOn3 - 1 loco currently running on my Sn2 track waiting for a new cab,
details and tender modifications to become a proper free-lance Sn2
locomotive.

Another 23 or 64 so far.

Plus:
Sn3 - 7 unbuilt or partially built kits
Sn2 - 1 unbuilt kit
HO - 11 locos/kits bought with the intention of converting them to Sn3 in
some way.  Some of these go back further than I want to admit.
HOn3 - 1 kit bought with the intention of being used to make a Sn2 loco.
N - 1 loco bought with the intention of using the mechanism for a Sn20 loco.



I counted railcars as a loco since sometimes they pulled or switched cars.
As can be seen, I have a problem hoarding trains.  I buy new ones and don't
get rid of the old ones.  I also need to get to work on some of the kits but
at least I won't run out of projects for some time.

Subject: {S-Scale List} Average number of locomotives

This month's Model Railroader magazine (which I subscribe to and read cover
to cover) says that modelers own on average 36 locomotives. I own three.
Does one of you own 69?
