Is there a steam train replacer?

[Moonraker0 192]

 I was hoping someone knew if there is a mod that replaces the steam train with one that looks more realistic, big and black like this one.  I've searched, but can't find anything of the sort.

Here's one by fukuda, in the STEX. I guess there are some more steam locomotives, but this is the only one I can remember...

Thanks for pointing that out. I was hoping for one that replaces the industrial steam train and not the passenger train, though.

As far as I know, the steam locomotive can't be replaced.

I think I can recall reading a thread at SC4D about this, where someone wanted a different, less "circus-like" steam engine. The answer was that the game only allows the passenger and freight engines to be replaced. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe this is related to the fact that these are the only driveable locomotives (UDI).

All three types of trains are used in the UDI missions.

@tungston: Thank you for correcting me.

@Rady: That's the thread. Thank you for the link. I now recall that I wasn't happy with the diesel replacement engine provided by RippleJet, as I was looking for an electric replacer. That's why the solution was listed as a "no go" in my book..

Thanks for the link, Rady. I'll check it out.
