But you may want to add the stuff in the parentheses as well, so those of us non trainbuffs can more easily distinguish between the TSO and the BSO versions.

When you're building them, it's fairly obvious. The BSO has mail capacity, and the TSO doesn't.
I didn't give the designations because what does "BSO" mean to a non-trainbuff, anyway?
v2 coming probably later today, with some of the browwwwwn pallette glitches cleaned up.

I was suggesting the designations more for easier 'spot-identification' of the carriages. For example, looking at your screenie, I really can't tell which is the TSO and which is the BSO.

I wonder if you would want to do American Stainless Steel Mail and Passenger Carriages..American Climate really needs something better than it has now..

Well, I had to put it one way 'round or the other, and I usually put the BSO next to the locomotive (which is the arrangement in most of my reference photos), and then the DBSO, if required, on the back.
BA, I guess I could do the Turbotrain... it's a TTD classic, after all.
Version 2 is up. This is likely to be the final version. Changes: Graphical fixes, and the BSO is now named as "Mk2 Mail Carriage" for easier identification.

Tried them out on a test map, and loved em. Pity they won't work in my East Anglia game, unless that Hex Editor lets you add to the vehicles that are available.

Hmm... perhaps "Mk2 Brake Carriage" (Or SomethingTM) might be better, otherwise there'll be people thinking "Hey, this mail van carriages passengers!"
