Southern Pacific GS-4 Enhancement Pack

Release Date: TBD

Hello everyone!

This is an official announcement for a project that LemonGem3021668, ZekTheKid, GenericZack, TheTeenageFoamer, and I are working on. Over the past six months, we have been working tediously on a much-needed update to the G-TraX Southern Pacific GS-4 Add-On. We feel it is in a presentable stage where the locomotive can be displayed to the public. Keep in mind, this is still a Work-In-Progress and will be a freeware release.

Special thanks to Mike Rennie and Kevin Schulz for their scripting expertise, and Rick Grout for supplying the locomotive! This would not be possible without them.

A great project. Am particularly intrigued by the "non-skirted" version.

Look forward to the release...

Hey man, I noticed a couple things off about it. A couple rivets are missing from the water bunker above the rear truck, and the wheels are all offset by 1.2mm doing some quick measurements. Looking closer, the nuts on the smokebox aren't completely squared off like the real ones. Please fix this promptly, those 3 things are complete deal breakers and make it not worth the download, sorry.
