Penn Central J3 4-6-4 Hudson Pack - FANTASY

Description
April Fools!

I thought I'd make something weird and zany for April Fools this year, and this immediately sprung to my mind. Presenting...the Penn Central Hudsons!

There are few things more cursed than putting the Penn Central lettering on a steam loco, but I did it three times. And, as you would expect for a clown show of a railroad like Penn Central, I didn't check that everything is symmetrical! Wherever the paintshop guys slapped the logo on is where it's staying! That's Penn Central quality!

What's in the Box?

Based off of Neighbor Kid's J3A skins, I have made 3 different variants of Penn Central Hudson. These include:

PC #5430 with 6 Axle modernized tender
PC #5432 with PT-4 tender
PC #5440 with 6 Axle tender

And all of these features from Neighbor Kid's description:
Couplers by Model Citizen
Sounds by Mr. Cheesecake
All units have corresponding assets!
2 Different wheel sets. Boxpok and Scullin Disc drivers.
2 Different Smoke box configurations for non-streamlined and de-streamlined appearance.
4 LOD's to help accommodate the high poly model.
7 Different Camera views!

Stats

Availability : from 1968 (When Penn Central was founded. Far out!)
Horsepower : Enough
Tractive Effort : Big
Top Speed : Train go Vroom

Acknowledgements

As always, thanks to Neighbor Kid for the excellent model and textures, even as I defile them with this skin.
Thanks to Model Citizen and Mr. Cheesecake for couplers and sounds, respectively.

Closing Thoughts

"Penn Central, you can count on us!" - Rodney Kantorski
So yeah, the fun goofy joke mod for April Fools. Enjoy it, since now I'm going back into the Streamliner set skinning grind and won't be seen for months.

As the World "Steam Locomotive Outskirts Countryside Association" Chairman,
I completely missed it. Because there is no word "steam locomotive" in it. I've been checking many pages about what's popular today, but I've missed it.
If the original MOD has the quality of a steam locomotive (an old-fashioned feeling) even in that era, this MOD feels as beautiful as if it were made in the modern era.
Thank you.
From the Chairman of the Rural Town Steam Locomotive Union

@spacemanspiff1998: Keep living in your disillusions, Penn Central cost us three railroads companies and the whole damn northeast rail network.
