While Henry Dreyfuss did some work for the New York Central, most of his notable work was NOT in the field of transportation. The stainless steel toilet commonly found in prison cells was designed by Dreyfuss when he was working with Crane. He designed the classic round themostat for Honeywell, several pens, light fixtures, clocks, airline seat, plumbing fixtures, etc.
Still when you say Dreyfuss to a railfan, you think of the classic two tone grey passenger fleet and the streamlined hudson for the New York Central.
His rivial was a bit more colorful and designed other objects related to ground transportation and logos we take for granted.
