My layout is now playing host to the New York Central.  Service began with the 20th Century Limited pulled by MTH Premier and K-Line Scale Hudsons.  The cars are a mixture of K-Line, MTH Premier and Lionel Scale Heavyweights.  The MTH cars with interiors weigh noticeably more than the K-Line and Lionel cars with interiors.  It is all the K-Line and MTH Premier Hudsons can handle to pull an eight car train.  I already lost one traction tire on the Premier Hudson.  Just for kicks, I put a Rail King Erie Triplex in charge of the train and it had no problems whatsoever.  Also, a Williams Scale Hudson pulled the train with ease though the Williams Hudson is not as sharp looking as the MTH and K-Line models.  I will post videos of all three Hudsons later, but for now here are some pictures and a video of the MTH Premier and K-Line scale Hudsons in action with the 20th Century Limited.
