Nice :3 Now, I know there isn't a gravel supplying industry in FIRS yet, but there will be, so, can you do gravel?
Though, something that would be cool, what if could make the hoppers alternate between Company colours , like, yours, then maybe a competitor colour then yours again , like in real life where some companies either borrow stock from other companies or move it around

NekoMaster wrote: what do you mean dont rename them all to Colossal? theres only gonna be so many, mayb some where between 5-10 COLOSSAL Locomotives

But thanks, theres a problem though, got to put it on a sprite sheet and properly chop it up, especially the diagonal

I mean not to rename ALL locomotives in the set to Colossal.
I have got my own set, so I can't draw so many sprites, just about 15-20 locos with no extra sprite sets.

1. Could you supply me with a picture of gravel
2. Letting the Hoppers alternate between different Companys CCs isnt doable, the only solution would be to recolor them to other colors than CC.

ok, heres a picture of gravel

this is the kind they would use in cement\concrete


larger kind is for road beds, light roads and patchs

Thanks :3

~REQUIRES A CONTROLLING A UNIT OR CAB UNIT!~

Nice!:)
But why the B unit is heavyer than A unit? The B unit is simple an A unit without cab, it isn't?

Hmm, cause the space that the Cab would have taken up would be replaced by a water tank and later a Generator for HEP

Heres a sneak peek of the GLW 230-E1(E)

Nice, but where's the electric collector?

And I try to create an electric express train, but as I think it doesn't fit in the set...

looks almost like an X2000 or a ICE(1) train

Well, yeah...
But I don't modeled it after something, it just a fantasy creation...

something different:
Is there any diesel-steam locomotives in reality? I dont heard any of it, and it hears interesting...

colossal404 wrote:Is there any diesel-steam locomotives in reality? I dont heard any of it, and it hears interesting...

From an engineering point of view that'd be utter nonsense: it would mean to first burn the diesel in order to generate steam and then only use that steam in order to generate propulsion. That can never be more efficient than using a internal combustion engine directly where the combustion of the diesel is used directly in order to generate propulsion. OTOH: one never knows what people might have created somewhere despite of this logic

Its alright, why would it not? Im trying to make the older american style frieght only disels look a bit ugly, but high speed express trains like yours should be bright and shiny :3 Maybe I should go back to the other diesel trains and touch them up

Oh , and for the diesel steam idea, maybe put one or two experimentals, really, the idea is more for those cab forward types like the kind that SP ran though its tunnels. Also, maybe something like the Wardale 5AT could be put in this set later that burns diesel to create steam

I've Updated the Site with a list of Companies though the years for this set, to go see it
GTRS - Tracking Table

(Its my thread, so I can do what I want with it, even triple posting!)

Anyways, heres another locomotive, well, more like a bus on rails.

Isn't this more like a "fantasy US rail set"?

2cc is the current "generic train set", with lots of trains from many different countries.

This trains are purely fictional, though we dont have enough electrics atm, which is mainly because nekomaster only draws diesels (I assume hes from North America )
