[ssbn742]

I hate to;bump a REALY old topic, AND ask a stupid question, but is this pack still being worked on, I'm just making my monthly stupid post

[Plastikman]

yup updates due soon. I was sort of waiting on the horns for the CTA Trains to get done for release. I have been to busy to make them myself.

[ssbn742]

Ok thanks, for a few weeks I was woried this was dead ^_^

[Plastikman]

Nahh my personal life has been crazy.

both of my lomo PC's died and need repairs to get them back up and running.

All i have on this one is most of the VIA set beta, some odds and ends and a lot of buildings so i might do that for a little bit.

Maybe I'll work on getting the VIA that I have and Little bits out.

Hey, just out of curiousity do you have copies of the MNRR M3, the LIRR M1, or the SEPTA Silverliner IV models and any intention to include them in either the 2.1 or eventual 2.2 release?

I do belive i have made all 3 have been in beta for months for busman's northeast corridor pack. the problem is that the model maker wont allow release. .... hence the huge delay in that pack. check with him.



ps. there is a possible release in the near future for ver 1.

[ssbn742]

[Plastikman]

actually it is packaged up and ready for release. i just dont have the package lol

maybe i can get the beta off someone and release the beta. it just has no readme.

[ssbn742]

I would offer, but i would end up playing it and forgeting to upload it, but i use a great file hosting site.

If you want someone to just beta it im only an Xfire masage away...

[Plastikman]

2.1 is out At AMI. please report and any bugs or issues.
please post your screen shots of your games.

[NEcorridor]

2.1 is great
Although the next edition may be distant did u think about doing GO Trains because there is new equipment

[Illegal_Alien]

Just repaint an engine and you are done Hmm, if i recall it correctly i had sich one already made, but i deleted my CA set because Plastiman is working on it now

[Plastikman]

Looking at possible items for this pack i decided to build a train in GMAX that is not in MSTS, A sort of a basturd of an Engine.
The GP40FH-2;

In 1987, New Jersey Transit and Metro-North ordered a set of GP40 locomotives called GP40FH-2s which were completed by Morrison Knudsen between 1987-90 and combine the standard cab and frame of a GP40 with the cowl from an ex-Burlington Northern F45. A total of 21 units of this type were built; 15, numbered 4130 through 4144, were delivered to New Jersey Transit, and the remaining six, numbered 4184 through 4189, were for Metro-North.

New Jersey Transit's units are slated to be retired eventually, replaced by new PL42AC locomotives from Alstom. GP40FH-2s 4130-4134 were sent to MotivePower Industries to be rebuilt into switcher units. Metro-North has begun sending their units out for significant maintenance and upgrades. Metro-North has begun an overhaul program those units, 4184-4189 will be renumbered 4900-4905.

Very good chance, I have a few updates comming soon, also the guy (Patrick Lopez) that made the metrolink F59 i have in this pack, said he has a GO version comming soom. I was sort of waiting on that since I liked his is previous model. If not, I'll work something canadian now that VIA is done (is it? no one left any feedback on the beta).


Right now I am working on a bunch of stuff for this pack:
Metrolink
GO
NJT/LIRR/Metro North
RTA/CNW/SS Bi levels and electrics
SP Bi levels
PRR heavy weight and Streamlined cars
More named trains
