Lionel Vision Line NYC Dreyfuss Hudson Review

The Dreyfuss Hudson is art in motion. Loewy's streamlined shroud is perfectly reproduced in polished die-cast, and the New York Central graphite finish with white lettering is immaculate. The Legacy sound system delivers the haunting four-chime whistle the Hudson is famous for, synced with exhaust that accelerates and decelerates realistically. Running this locomotive at scale speed with the Twentieth Century Limited passenger cars behind it is a genuinely emotional experience. The definitive O gauge steam locomotive — full stop.
