Thanks micaelcorleone, the images will be very useful. And the info for cars and their distribution of seats.



Regards.

Can it come even better? No, I don't think so.

Just wait until it has a fresh coat of paint on it!

[micaelcorleone]

I felt free to resize the pics and post them here.






Awesome work and yes, thecanadianrail you're right. Can't wait to see them coming out of the paintshop.

You're gonna short out your keyboard, Repo dude.

These look awesome! I can't wait!

[micaelcorleone]

Reppo, I have an idea for you.

The class390 tilt train has this feature: Green arrows in scenario and route editor flying over the single cars. So one knows which direction is right for the cars.
Also in the left loco list, all cars have a (A), (B),... assigned to them, so one knows which place it has in the consist.

Well tim unlike the 390 it is easier to tell what is suppose to go in order. More on the tilt like tim said can you set the max tilt, the activation, and the allowed angle in occurrence with DOT (Department of Transportation). I think I can find the tech docs lying around somewhere.

Also Reppo are the cars going to have a Passenger view or more? (Please say yes)

ho ho, cant wait ! As always, great work !

New Update:








Nice work, but does anyone feel the way that I feel? Something is off. Like the nose. The MSTS one done by Adam W. was right on with the nose and everything, but something doesn't look right. I hope i'm just crazy and its just me.

MSTS Version:

[micaelcorleone]

Naa, I like the model.

The only thing that bothers me is that the "ground" lights seem to be missing still and I don't like the colours of the big Acela logo (too bright).

Wow

[arizonachris]

A little weathering will get rid of the "shiny". Otherwise, it's fantastic!
