I am interested to know if any of the modern-made Hudson's have rounded boilers on the underside, and Melgar hinted that this MTH Premier J1-e model may have that awesome feature. I passed on the Lionel Legacy Hudson a year or so back because like so many of their models they used the U-shaped monolith boiler.

I also like the catalog picture of the 2015 Premier dark green boiler jacket on the B&A version - very nice. Does anyone have the previous release of this, and can you share a picture of the production version's color and a trackside view of the boiler, above the suspension?

I actually don't own a regular Hudson, though I have the fantastic streamlined NYC Empire State Express and MW Hiawatha versions.

No die cast Hudsons have that feature, …..only 3rd Rail offers that in brass steam locomotives,….I pointed that out to MELGAR on the other thread,…..with a picture of the MTH J1e,….
