You're number three to try this, if I recall correctly.
Of course there's a way to convert MSTS to LoMo, and I'd be happy to help you out (it'd be a great add-on for my Island of Sodor scenario). The only thing is, I don't have these models, so you'd have to point out where I can get them (or, alternatively, send me the .S files).

Since Train answered your other question i'll answer this.
There isnt a way to convert TT to Lomo as TT is hand draw sprites of about 4 per train, where as Loco needs at least 136 per train.
And as Train-a-mania said there is a way to convert MSTS models to Loco.

I found the TTTE MSTS models at UK Train Sim, however, but I'd still like to have the MSTS files sent to me, because it will take longer to download them since I'm not a premium member.

Anyone know how to fix this.
This was a problem with the original version of the MSTS2Loco tool where the angles were not correct and as such the sloping sprites looks as if they were tilting, it has now been fixed and you can get the updated MSTS2Loco at locofanpage.

Try having a look in my help topic ([Help] Getting off the ground), because I had all the same problems you had.
After you've converted the model, you need to do what's called a batch conversion using a program called "Wally" so that you can turn the BMP files into PNG. Then, you need to use the Vehicle Creator to set the parameters of the locos and cars (the year they come out, how much they cost, etc).
Just read the topic I mentioned from start to finish and download the necessary files. That should help you out.
