I just finished my first MOC using LDD 2.0 of a steam engine inspired by a ‘Streamlined Hudson’. I took some artistic liberties due to the limited part/color selection in LDD (especially on the blue side covers around the cab), but I think it still captures the spirit of a ‘Streamlined’ well.

I’d appreciate any comments and modification ideas from the experienced train builders out there. I just uploadeded the LDD file to the Factory, so hopefully it will be there soon and you can play around with it... now I’ll have to start working on a tender :)...

Once I buy it from the factory and put it together, I’ll update with some pictures.

(...) Not bad, not bad at all. Considering you were working from a limited palette, I agree you were able to capture the feel of a streamlined steam engine. I especially like your solution to the cow catcher. I really can't comment on how to improve (...) (18 years ago, 20-Apr-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
