Superb, I’ve seen O gauge cars very much lower in detail.

We have a few repaints of this car. Will they work for this new version?

I haven't mapped it yet so I don't know, but probably not very well since the original had no detail geometry at all on the sides and any image would fit.

That's OK, I can notify the authors of the repaints we have in the library.
Also if you add "v2" to the name in the blueprint, the two versions can coexist.
