Next release

[KCJones]

A small pack with a GG1 and some (Slightly) Pennsylvania coaches. There are better ones elsewhere
The video gives you an idea of how they look.
The pantos are set for the default European wire height though I have included an animation set for the correct PRR wire height to be used at a later date!!!!

Mr. Cowen,

That GG1 is looking superb. Not bad on the PRR Lettering on the cars either. I'm extremely impressed with the cab view improvements also. Keep up the great work.

Very nice indeed...
May I ask what program you use to get that good quality video...I have been looking.
Thanks.

I use Fraps to capture the video then process it in Serif's MoviePlus x3. The music is mangulated through Band in a Box.

Getting there

I have been updating my E7 so I thought that I would add it to the pack. Therefore things arte taking a little longer than I first thought.

I need a bit of help. I notice from a PRR loco roster that they had E7 B units. I cant find any pictures
Question. Did they run them as fixed pairs as I notice they are numbered as an A unit but with the added B For example 5840 and 5840B

Dick,

I think I can answer this one easily for you. in the PRR's roster, I believe the E7s were delivered as A-B pairs. The exception to this is the E8s, which were only ever grouped as A-A Pairs. There were no E8bs ever owned by the PRR (Before being asked). Please drop me a line and I think I can get you further squared away. Cab units and Booster units were typically run in sets and labeled as such. Your example was nearly right, but the A unit would be numbered 5748A and the B would become 5748B. (Note these letters only displayed on the lower rearmost number) The number boards would display 5748.

One other thing to note: the E7s were delivered originally in PRR's infamous Brunswich Green and had bronze gold striping until later on. Around 1952, they were repainted into Tuscan red and recieved Buff Gold striping (Maybe on account of paint pigment changes at this point.)

Hope this helps.
