Raymond Loewy is considered the father of Art Deco styled automobiles, buses, locos (GG1, S-1), coke bottles, corporation logos, etc.
Do any of you OGR forumites collect Loewy designed railroad Locos or cars? How about posting some photos.

I have models of several of Lowey’s beautiful designs. First, he redesigned the GG1 to it’s famous smooth sided look (and I believe he started the 5-stripe design)…
Lowey also did a number of other engines for the PRR, one of which was the behemoth S1…
I also have one of his T1’s, but it’s packed away and I don’t have a pic to share.
Finally, Lowey did the Fleet of Modernism livery…
My fairly large GG1 collection has been posted numerous times on this forum so I'll spare those who have seen it having to look at it again. 
However, I don't know how often I've posted my T1.
Weaver had done the Baldwin DR-6-4-2000, (Pennsy BP20) Large Brass model, A-B set. There were additional A unit models, as Pennsy ran them on the Long Island Railroad as A-B-A. Also a Lowey design.
Here's the Loewy-designed K4s streamlined "Torpedo" by MTH, pulling the K-Line Spirit of St. Louis 18-inch aluminum cars.
If anyone has one of these, it qualifies, I think. Raymond Loewy designed the livery for Air Force One.
It's packed away, but I have the Lionel 0-27 2-6-2 gunmetal gray loco based on the PRR streamlined K4, which my father got in 1940 at age 16.
