I've got something in the works made out of Lego: a Tobu 2000 series. It's a rough comparison, but it looks kinda like it. I also attempted to make a 6-axle non-powered SD-9 a few years ago, and I'm revisiting this model and giving it new details like a horn and clear windows(They were just black 1x4's).
Yes Lego trains are a lot cheaper. A $200 dollar HO/OO set has a few cars, a decent locomotive, and a circle of track. A $200 Lego train set has all sorts of things like switches, vehicles, and even with all these things, it has a great train. But, the assembly of these sets for me is usually saved for Ney Year's Eve because I stay up an extra 3 hours.
