Government of Alberta Heritage grain car

[CPRailfan34]

Ok update time! Just completed the car with out the slogan for ALPX now to create the ALNX cars. And the CN models work fine. I'm not going to worry about the Gold numbers they look fine with the standard black numbers. It's not prototypical but it will work. Thanks for helping me out buzz, I will package the pack as soon as image the CN variants of each car done. I will send the wrp file along with the read me file I will make to go with the package. Turns out repainting railcars is easy on you put your mind to work and get it done. Tip for those just like me starting out, make sure you have plenty of images you can use to compose your repaint with be it company logos and real images of the car your working on. This will make your repaint look more accurate.

It's a rwp but that's OK. I understand.

Lol thanks for the correction buzz! The CN variants are complete, just testing them then I will write the read me file and send the pack to you for testing and photos.

Good news! The pack is now finished!
I will pack it and send it to Buzz for high quality setting images then release it when I get the images. Speaking of images I got an Image of the final product for ya!

I really like the balance between 'shinyness' and 'flatness' in the paint!

!!*ok*!! I really like the balance between 'shinyness' and 'flatness' in the paint!

Thanks Boosted, I intended to tone down the sheen as it was just too much, it was toned down to the point where the car looks like either new or lightly used.

Very nice indeed! Would it be possible to make a set containing a few of the named cars? this would mean you could take out the autonumbers completely since there was only 1 number of each per railroad.

Yeah but that would limit the amount of cars you could place, with this pack you can place many and it wouldn't matter how many you place. i'd have to add "visit" to the slogan then the number and city on the car. plus there are 40 or 50 different cities in the fleet that be a lot of work to create all of them. I'm not sure if I can do that. Thanks for the positive feedback guys. I think you can get one with a city on it from the DigiRails forum.

Yea every car would be a challenge to do with the amount that were made, maybe a pack of 5 or 10 each for CN and CP could be done. Its not like you would need every car in the fleet as you would never see that many in one place.

I see your point, another way to do them is to break the names up into packs of four cities per railroad. Which can be done or do you just want an eight pack for now?
