Hey Trolca I was wondering if you will be able to make an auto transport car (if possible the articulated kind that was buiilt a few years ago)

Also somone had asked about putting a caboose on a passenger train what is the point if everyone wants realism. (The real ones do not have cabooses on them).

BTW if you do make an engine with Norfolk Southern road lettering don't forget the dynamic brake on the top of the engine(if possible).1.gif

    I've been thinking about it. I haven't found any images that I like yet.


    Also somone had asked about 'putting a caboose on a passenger train' what is the point if everyone wants realism. (The real ones do not have cabooses on them).

    The reason behind this isn't so there would be cabooses on the end of passenger trains. Some passenger services have special cars for the end of the train. Others have a second engine on the end of the train in a push/pull arangement. In either case the first step would be linking a caboose to a passenger train, then modifying it to appear as an end car or second engine.


    BTW if you do make an engine with Norfolk Southern road lettering don't forget the 'dynamic brake' on the top of the engine(if possible).

    I'll put it on my list.

    For now, here's more name brand cars. Because all the cars are of the same company, they're all in one DAT file. Here is some of them.

    On the other requests, I'll see what I can do.

    I'll be looking forward to a Norfolk Southern train set. <ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/10.gif> I love the Hershey boxcar because I go to school in Hershey, Pennsylvania. (Where the chocolate comes from) Your work is still better than any word in the English laguage!

    I'm sorry to hear you can't down load these mods. They're rather small, all 150k or less.
     
    Here's two more.

    Sure Equinox, I was just hoping that Trolca could make some Monorail sets. He can choose the roadname of them, I don't care.

         Sorry, I didn't know someone else requested new monorails.

    I hope I don't disappoint everyone to much by working on the Chamberlain & Bowdion Railroad a little.
    Here's a three freight engine pack.
    RHFEngineCB1863_10AA00.dat replaces the original freight engine.
    /idealbb/files/FECB02.jpg
    RHFEngineCB1828_117900.dat replaces the steam engine.
    /idealbb/files/FECB01.jpg
    RHFEngineCB1004_10AA50.dat has an unique ID and shouldn't replace any other engines.

    Thanks for telling me where to go for monorails Trolca. The engines look great, but I prefer River Haven. Keep up the good work.

    I have a big favor to ask you. I tried out Oppie's monorails, but I want the engine and cars to look the same and not like the picture below. I just don't like the way the monorail looks.

    Can you make the cars look like the engine? The file is called Oppie's Red striped Monorail and is at SCC.
     
     
    P.S. I couldn't up load the file.<ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/15.gif>

    I like this car...1.gif
     
    I haven't looked yet, and my computer's being really slow right now, so I won't bother till later, but have you made the CSX cars that run along the Atlantic Seaboard? (we have the coal cars, open topped, run through here all the time loaded to the shipyard(?), and empty going back.) We have, also, boxcars and flatbeds of all types run through, as well as Am Traks (for passenger service). Out west, they have the double-height passenger cars.
     

    PS Even though I don't use rail in any of my cities, I have downloaded all of your traincar modds. They are AWESOME!<ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif><ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/10.gif><ahttps://www.simtropolis.com/idealbb/images/smilies/24.gif>

    I'm glad so many liked the auto carrier.
    Here's one for the River Haven set.

    I think I'll start on a CSX set next. I'll see how many good profile images I can find.
