I downloaded Blender 2.79b, installed that plugin and directly imported and rendered one of my 12V train test scenes,
without adjusting any settings manually:
That looks great!  How many parts are in the scene? I've used the importer on some vehicles for this April Fools Day gag, but when I tried to import a serious model (e.g. 10k parts) the importer just hung for a few minutes and I gave up.
The only problem I had with the import of the small model is one of LDraw and my target engine: LDraw models end up with a huge number of triangles because there is so much detail in each part. I've been thinking about how to write some kind of "thinning" tool, e.g. to remove the tubes from a stack of 2x4s and other totally occluded geometry.
