Hi,

I am trying to find a single or double road loco shed that would house a SD40-2 or ES44AC but i can't find one anywhere,

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Roger.

I might build one, do you have any pictures of one?

Hi jpetersjr,

I have sent you a PM,

Thanks,

Roger.

Hi,

Have a look at the assets that shipped with the GN Butte Div. route. It comes with a model of GN's Shelby Engine House, a three-stall brick building. An SD40 should fit in it.

The model of the engine house is only an MSTS conversion, so it looks a bit basic, and it is also a bit flawed, the faces of the interior and exterior are inverted, so the lighting looks a bit weird. One of the many things I need to fix on the route. Apart from that it works okay.

Cheers,
Michael

PS:

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the info,

There are two sheds that were good in MSTS, one was a double road and that was in Canton/Suddenly and the single one that was a good model was the one in the A & 0 Route by V scale if my memory serves me right! both of them would make good models for RW3 i think, the trouble is i no longer have MSTS on my PC anymore otherwise i could have taken a picture of them,

Hopefully we will see what jpetersjr can do for us.

Cheers,

Roger.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for that, its not a bad model, i will add a few items around it and at least its a shed!



Cheers,

Roger.

Hi Michael,

Just thought i would post a couple of shots as i am still learning to use the Editor, i really am enjoying this sim and thanks to you and all the other people on here who are very helpful it makes for a great hobby,

Hello.

Tomorrow I'll have some time so I'll build a single shed then. I'll release it as a single and perhaps also a double shed if there isn't yet one available for the sim.

Have been busy recently with big downtown buildings, but a shed will be fairly quick to build and won't be any trouble.

I'm thinking of a simple vintage shed for the game.

Hi,

Well i would think they would be very helpful as i have not seen any for RW US routes,

Thanks again,

Cheers,

Roger.

What do you think of this shed.



Now all I have to figure out is how to make my windows transparent in 3d crafter.

Use the TrainGlass.fx filter in 3DC and then borrow the glass.TgPcDx from the GP38-2.

That is the coolest thing I've read all week. I know the feeling.

Hi jpetersjr,

I take it your peter! Corrected!! Sorry about that Jonathan

Well i would say that shed will do nicely and looking good , at least you can then arrange the sheds to suit your own type of yard,

Thanks again,

Cheers,

Roger.

Actually, his name is Jonathan Peters Jr,

I am trying to build a proto-typical route that goes through Dunsmuir, CA. The mallet shed there has a double peaked roof and I have not found something like it to use. I am trying to base my route in the middle to late 50's. I have a photo of it taken in 1959 and another taken in modern day. If someone knows of where I can get a model like this please let me know. I have a 3d program but do not know how to make things for railworks, especially getting the scale right.
