Considering the specs for the train, I don't think it costs enough, thats a really generous price for such a nice train.

You should up the price, thats still not enough.

1) Because in real life, Locomotive Companies dont always produce trains forever, they have to produce newer trains eventually

2) yes I konw, Ill edit that In a sec (Edit) Done

Ok, good luck on the train set!

Sure, though, im more of a anime artist and idea man, not a spriter nor a coder, so I kinda need someone to do both, though, they wouldn't be doing all the work, I suck at diagonal sprites, so it would be nice if someone could do that, and I can draw up my ideas too.

I have no experience whatsoever in those things, but something that helps, link it to your signature with a link, use this:

Well, you can help by letting me know what seams off for the specs, like the prices and power, these may not be based off real trains, but Im trying to keep prices , speed and power like trains of its there time, like something that would come out in 1950 might be slower and weak but in 1990 might be faster and powerful

Ok, heres another train, though, for this one, its not based off it, but the EMD F40PH inspired this one

Sure

Though, I feel kinda useless though, I suck at spriing and need someone else to do it, and i cant code, so I need someone else to do that, I may as well just let them say they made the set.

Also, should I keep going? Im starting to feel this might actually be a lame idea

I don't know, whatever you want to do?

... not the awnser i was looking for, but, well, i guess Ill keep going

You'll be put Down as an Adviser, helping me with the specs to make sure there balenced

And, heres another train, this one was not Based of the EMD DDA40X, but inspired it, since its powerful, can be fast and big.

I have a suggestion for you, why not set up a tracking table first?

It will be a nice set, but why is the locomotives are so dark? Why don't you paint them more company coloured?
They will look more friendly, I think...

They are company coloured, blue = Colour 1, green = colour 2

Most of the older Fright Locomotives are dark and some what ugly, with the passenger, shark nose and later fright trains will have nicer colours

Oh, and another thing, most General Locomotives will have that kind of scheme till later on , where as Master Locomotives have nicer colours, mainly cause they make passenger locos

And once again, another train
