I was able to go to the LEGO Factory web page and select the "Search Creations,
By model category:  Trains".  This

http://www.lego.com/eng/factory/gallery/searchresult.asp?type=2&entry=1&attribs=66B2899F-582F-474A-8C08-B7C5B53193C8,14&pn=&firstitem=1

yielded 12 pages of trains:  18 MOCs per page. I've found that clicking on the
thumbnail image of the MOC brings up a pop-up window that gives the Biography
information of the designer and the designer's description of the model.  I
haven't been able to find this information via the page on which one purchases a
specific model.

Via the "Trains Search" page, you can also bring up all the MOCs of a specific
designer by clicking on their account user name.  As an example, here are

Below are links to some of my favourites as viewed from the all-be-it smallish

Can't really see the MOC, the pic is too small, but it looks interesting:

There are a lot of good MOCs!  Maybe this list is cumbersome long, and maybe
I've missed some good MOCs, but I find the LEGO Factory to be improving daily.
The Train Factory is also popping up as a Featured Product at the LEGO home
page.

(...) I don't see a huge improvement. If you look, all the galleries have 12 pages. They each show the most recent 200 entries in the category. I don't know what the churn rate is, but it might be worth keeping an eye on your one that's just shown (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jun-06, to lugnet.trains)
