Repaint Request WP 3532

Unread postby AmericanSteam » Mon Nov 30, 2020 2:25 pm

This WP GP40 unit was repainted in Armour yellow and gray and lettered as Western Pacific about 6 months after the merger of WP and UP. It was a one off paint scheme. I would like to have this repaint for my roster. More pictures here: https://www.google.com/search?q=wp3532& ... y2-vqP78qM

Preferred would be the RRMods GP40-2, I like the sounds and physics. However, there are several from DTG or G-Trax has one from Portland terminal. I don't know if a child object is needed for the plow but it is not a necessity.

Still need to finish the plow and bogies but this is bout done. just gotta wait for some scripts and what not. should satisfy what you want.

The wp logo that was used on an excursion is toggled via autonumbering. should be out on the tru rail site either tonight or tomorrow, We're looking for a good M5 to go with it.

Wow... just wow! Nicely done. Thank you for doing this repaint. While I was completely against armor yellow going over perlman green back in the day, this works. *!!thnx!!*

I thank you for this repaint. I have installed per the instructions and moved the .geo files and enabled the Trurail dependencies. The unit shows up but the switches are inoperative, there is exhaust but rpms are reading 0, there are engine sounds. and none of the levers move. Any help is appreciated. I will supply more info if needed.
