Hey, I can't code! This isn't even my set.

Well don't make ridiculous assumptions about coding workload then..

Maybe he _is_ kidding :-D

But from my point of view it doesn't look like _too_ much work, because you already realized regearing (correct me, if i am wrong...).

Yeah, I think that adding a Capacity Refit option would be easier as you would only have to do it for the Bi Level, rather then code in a parameter that makes it change capacity with each style of bi level

Though I still would like a way to turn the HEP function off cause even using a F40PH or GE Genesis with just 1 Mail car and 6 Bi Levels still reduce them to a low HP rating (F40PH = 1,800HP and GE Genesis = 3050 HP )

I've never seen this combination in real life. Bi-levels tend to be used for high density commuter service and are often run at a fraction of their load capacities during off-peak runs. With this in mind, why load an already heavy code with even more stuff of questionable need?

Wally Look at Amtrak. Most long distance trains use Superliners which usally has a Heradge baggage falling apart.

I usually add mail with bi levels as baggage ( like on Locomotion with the North American Mega Pack )

Hmm ... I wonder if GO Transit would fall for that if they could get a bigger handout from the Ontario government? :lol:

Well, maybe, but with all the s*** happing recently, I dont think the Goverment will help out much, even though GO's trains are still ailing when it comes to arriving on time (its usually OK during the warmer monthes but in the winter expect huge delays )

You live in Canada? Ontario to be specific? You've experienced a lake effect blizzard? You've shoveled out a 40 foot driveway after a 30 inch snowfall? And then walked a mile to school because the school buses were cancelled, only to find that while shoveling you missed the announcement that school was cancelled too? :mrgreen:

What!? I do live in Ontario Canada, but I live in southern ontario in Oshawa, I walk 2 miles to school but the weather never gets so bad they close the schools ( even when It gets "bad" they still dont close the schools, though they may cancel school buses, but I dont goto school on a school bus cause the board says that 5 Km is within walking distance, what a load of bull >: ( )

Well, its just a phrase. And additonally, I didn't want to refer directly to the clock tower, what I wanted to say was: "I had to walk less than 10 minutes to my school, my school was so close, I was able to read the clock..." (btw: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gymnasium_Engelsdorf that is it...)

A friend of mine lived next to school, she just walked less than a minute...

For me, living next door to the school or close to it would be like living in heavnen and hell at the same time! Heaven because It would be hard to be late and I wouldn't have to go far, hell because its so close there should be no reason why I can't go unless im sick or I cant see more then a few meters in a blizzard. I like where I live and Im still going even if theres a closer High school, the closer one sucks and has bad rep. Anyways I think its time we get back on track here ^^
