Mr. Bachmann, do you know which paint scheme(s) of the streamlined hudson you will be releasing? The image you are using seems to show a partially shrouded engine with a black tender and a single thin white stripe near the top, and not the iconic j3a that was used on the majority of 20th century limited trains.
I count 4 paint schemes that were used on the j3's.
* The 1938 version with blue stripes (AKA the best one
)
* The 1940's version with silver stripes
* Two-tone black and white "Empire State Express"
* Black whith single thin white stripe near the top of the tender (what I think is in the image you are using, but was possibly only done for #5344 J3e... not sure on the last bit)
Most of my info is from https://nycshs.files.wordpress.com/2014/07/pages-from-1981q3.pdf but there's a good photo of #5344 at https://www.trains.com/ctr/railroads/locomotives/new-york-central-4-6-4-hudson-no-5344-in-four-photos/
Also, do you have any plans to release NYC passenger cars in the future, either heavyweight or lightweight?
