Thanks to Garrett Quinn for posting this tough question. Some answers to his original tweet:

@GarrettQuinn @universalhub MOS T-Rex seems bigger and looks faster, but Route 1 T-Rex seems tougher and is made of concrete I think.Kyle
@mskyle @GarrettQuinn @universalhub my vote goes to the Rt. 1 T-Rex. I mean, he is orange after all.Julie Burdan
@julie_burdan @GarrettQuinn @universalhub And he lives at a mini golf course in Saugus! That'd toughen anybody up, surely.Kyle
@GarrettQuinn @universalhub No need to fight, there's plenty of Hilltop cows for both of them!John Burger
@universalhub MOS T-Rex has a couple of Triceritops friends though...and the lightning machineEd Grzyb
The Orange Dinosaur : Route 1 North T-Rex! Tough to survive that part of route one! @universalhubNikLuk

I'm sorry the MOS of sciece

I'm sorry the MOS of sciece T-rex was an indoor T-rex that got kicked out of the house. He obviously will not have street smarts. The Route 1 T-rex got into one heck of a fight and managed to bring himself back. After his injury all of the North Shore region was pulling for his recovery and would have his back in any fight. No contest, Big Orange wins.

The Wilds of Rt. 1

Any creature who has faced the traffic of Rt. 1, the New England weather in all four seasons, and smog and pollution of the area must have exceptional evolutionary stamina. Alternatively, any creature that poses in the relative tranquility of an exhibit, overlooking the scenic sunset along the Charles is doomed to irrelevance and degeneration, and finally, moth-balling.

You must have forgotten

Rte. 1 T-Rex had two broken ankles at one point. This may put him at a great disadvantage. He still wears braces to this day.

2 is better than one

The Trex on Route 1 looks to be wearing denchers.
The Trex at the MOS has a friend on the inside of that building that would gladly assist in whooping Route 1's leg brace and dencher wearing dinosaur

Typical litmus test for a wash-ashore

Orange Rex: Outside, Venerable, Miniature Golf, Everett, Saugus, and Route 1.

MoS Rex: Inside, Recent, Freakin' Science Museum, what's left of the West End, and Scheme Z.

There is really no contest here.

Is mating them an option?

Rte. 1 T-Rex [1] : Cellphone [0]

When I was playing mini-golf many years ago, I was a little careless walking around and the nose of the dinosaur jammed into my cell phone in my pocket. Broke the screen of my two week old phone. So I think Route 1 is a slam dunk for me.
