Thanks for the Wiki link.

The last remaining CandO Class L1 4-6-4 Hudson No490 is being preserved at the Baltimore and Ohio Museum.

We sure need all these Streamliners and LtWt Coach sets in RailWorks.

What about the PRR Broadway Limited, N&W Pocahantas, or NYC Twentieth Century Limited or B&O Capitol Limited. Each of these trains and more like them had Art Deco Streamlined Steam motive power in the thirties and into the War Years until diesels replaced them and all but a very few were scrapped.

A streamline set certainly would be nice - the L would go wonderfully on Tori's C&O, and that is the key - there needs to be a route. I think that is the problem Mike is finding to an extent. Users want road / route proto and his beautiful AT&N Connie doesn't naturally fit in anywhere (does for me, fits in beautifully on the C&O *!lol!* ) A J and Powatan Arrow set, or NYC 20th Century with "bath-tub" Hudson would be wonderful, but just not sell. That where the Brits have the advantage - just about everything ran everywhere.

Doesn't hurt to wish though....
