Wow Mike, these look wonderful, thank you.
It's funny this, because I've had these wagons for years from the UKTS library before they were all packaged up in the UKTS freeware pack, as they are knuckle couplers instead of the British / European buffers and hook eye couplers and I've played with quite a few of them on different American routes as you can obviously couple an American locomotive to them, the same with the Russian wagons and tankers and other Eastern European rolling stock with similar couplings. Have you just experimented with these, and, could you turn your hand to reskinning a few other similar items into something North American, please? **!!bow!!**

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

I've not explored the pack much, these flats were the reason I wanted it. I do know there are some container flats and other items that could be converted. I'll explore some more.

There are also some double stack well cars in the pack as well.

I used to use the China Quinn Jinn steam locomotive to pull heavy freight on the U.S routes all the time before they became busted because of the one Railworks update.

To be a set of five. I also am going to rework the China container stacks to work with the GtraX well cars, so they don't clip tunnels and bridges.

Also, Mr. Peters: Image For the drop center flatcar please?

With PapaXpress' help we now have a relocatable, resizeable, auto-numbering setup.
I reworked the 5 cars to auto-number and have 5 different loads. To be released "soon".
