Is this question for just the indoor  portion of the model railroad?  Or for those who run indoor model railroads only ?

As for which brand I run, the (electric) locos are Bachmann, solely because they make them in the scale that I like at a price I can afford. I wish they were of prototypes my favorite railroad actually ran, but oh well. Rolling stock is a mixture of scratchbuilt stuff and kitbashed-to-varying-degrees Bachmann stuff. There's also one or two pieces from LGB, Delton, and Accucraft (AMS). Again, no specific preference, just choosing models based on how well they work for being kitbashed into what I'm after.

Later,

I've never met a Large Scale brand that I didn't like, and the storage space in my home is proof of that! Most of my stuff is LGB, with a fair amount of Hartland, Aristo, and Accucraft thrown in for good measure. I've tried them all at some point, but generally just go for whatever appeals to me. Since I especially like trolleys and traction, I'm waiting for Aristo's PCC to appear.

It's all Bachmann, with one possible exception of  a USA Caboose I picked up at the train show.  Motive power is a Connie and Annie, though I guess my wife wants me to pick up some F-units (afterall she says I spend all my time with my f-ing trains, not that she is bitter).  My original plan was a logging line, so a shay is lurking somewhere in the future.  I am enthralled with narrow guage, but the lure of standard guage beckons me somewhere down the line, so the F-units and maybe a GP7 or 9 pulling some heavyweights are a possibility (and maybe some marital understanding as well).
