I heard they used Amiga 4000's... or is that what you meant with "hopped-up
A2000's"??
I was a big fan of Babylon 5 in the early days (I liked Ivanova (Claudia Christian)), but
hardly watched any episodes of the last 2 seasons.

Lightwave for their first season, but I think they switched the
rendering platform to Lightwave on Pentium-class machines for the
remainder of the show. Don't know if they continued to use Toasters
for laying down the rendered images to tape or not.
It was still cool to see Amiga output in a serious commercial venue, though.
