In my opinion, on average All Aboard does not quite make calves as stout or flashy as Monopolies. I find them to be a little plainer. He might have his place but I don't need him.

that could be the th factor and i find it neat that these are the same genetics but th free so you could use him safely on a carrier cow

Have used him and got along fairly well.  Calves are stout, sound, and smaller framed.  Definitely a bull to downsize cows. My best sucesses thus far have been on Debull cows (bigger).  The hairier the better from the cow side though.  Calves I've had tend to hair up later abut still never get that TREMENDOUS leg hair everyone wants but usually have enough to work with and make them look right.

my Friend has a heifer out of sooner the dam i believe is a polled energizer something but she has tons of hair everywhere and we made her leg look like a foot wide she has big bone to Begin with so we trimmed allot off and spent our time shaping it she got into the final drive for the breed tho!

Our Daughter and her husband have two All Aboard heifers born this year. They are nice, and stout, but don't have the hair the Monopoy calves have. Nice heifers over all though.

I have one from dr who cow. She ended up being a bottle baby so it's not really a fair assessment. If she had the same advantages as the other calves she would be right with them. Good bone and front end. Stout. No hair

A close friend of mine has been using All Aboard on all his THC cows and Monopoly on most of his THF cows. I have seen 20 to 25 of his All Aboard's and they look exactly the same as the Monopoly's as long as you get the hair genes to come out. One of the biggest reasons I would say you don't here about All Aboard calves is because if they come out good how many of them are being wrongly sold as Monopoly's ;). The answer is idk!!!

I don't think you could go wrong using any of the sibs. Park place is the only other clean full sib and Select Sires purchased him from us.
