I have seen pictures of some of those communities during the peak of the steam era and the look pretty dull and dingy to me.  And while some railroads kept their passenger loco's and equipment reasonably clean most of the freight loco's and especially yard switchers became very dirty a short time out of the paint shops.   But to each his own and I find no more reason to criticize someone for creating a heavily weathered scene than someone who has a layout where everything is shiny and clean.
