NYC streamlined 4-6-4 Hudson steam loco - real world MOC - front

This Dreyfuss-style streamlined 4-6-4 steam loco is numbered 5448 and is mostly modeled after a real, long-scrapped New York Central engine.

 

The tender really should say the railroad's full name of New York Central instead of its initials, but I don't want to shell out the money for all those 1 x 1 tiles, so I'm using fewer 2x2 tiles instead to spell out NYC, as it's much cheaper that way!

 

Note: As some of you might be able to guess, this loco was inspired by pictures of Anthony Sava's original streamlined Hudson locomotive from 2007... no instructions were used to build this engine. See it here: www.flickr.com/photos/savatheaggie/1338258406/in/album-72...
