Looks great. The old term for this fine train was "The Chicken Bone Express", as many
passengers could just make it to Chicago let alone eat in the diner.

More...

This is going to be a conundrum... Some of the E7s I did were actually E8/9s but there wasn't a model for them. Now, as I update, I'll use the E8 where appropriate. In the case of the SP Daylight, they had both. In fact, I saw a picture yesterday that had an E9a, an E7b, and an E8a on the head of a Daylight run.

Cool!!

Now, has anyone been able to successfully download the updated base file for the E8?

I still get this error message:

Upload Incomplete

This file has not finished uploading, if you download the file the data in it may be corrupt and the file may not work correctly.

If you still want to download the file click here.


I haven't heard from Dick on this, hope he is okay...

Thanks,
Rick
