Lionel Dreyfuss models

I have always been curious as to the differences between the various Lionel Dreyfuss Hudsons.  Now that I have managed to acquire three different versions, my curiosity has been satisfied.  The first, #6-28084, is their die cast version with less detail than the two Smithsonian models.  The differences between the 3 rail and 2 rail Smithsonians (6-18027 and 6-18026) are much more subtle.  The 2 rail model has opening hatches, somewhat more piping, additional panes in the windows, underneath detailing, and more realistic wheels.  From a short distance, the differences are all but invisible.  I have attached a photo showing all three.  The die cast model is at the top, then the 3 rail Smithsonian, and the bottom image is the 2 rail Smithsonian.
