I wonder if I can find this at Steam which still have a big sale up to 55% off the retail price. I did search them and did not see any of these. I wonder if that pack is old and no longer available in RailWorks. What I am looking for is one locomotive -- EMD SW15500 Norfolk Southern. Or maybe this locomotive is here in the file library in repaints? Anyone know where will I find these if not then don't worry about this.

Happy New Year to all

cheers,

John

It may be one of the DLC's pulled from the store for international users because it contains BNSF content.

You're right as nothing outside U.S.A. get BNSF DLC. Oh well I guess that I can use Union Pacific DLC to swap this.

With regards to the SW1500 and GP9 packs I think these were my fault for putting so many liveries in each.
I never foresaw this problem and was just keen to make many variations.

I will look to explore options with the guys at work on how these packs can be broken up so that the non BNSF liveries can be made available to non US citizens.

As you can image this can cause a world of pain and the complaints that users in the US get more liveries than anywhere else.

Is there any possibility of reasoning with BNSF? If they won't listen to reason or don't know what it is, how about asking Donald Trump for help?

Would it be possible to simply "unbrand" the BNSF content for international users much like what was done with the Chicago Racetrack? I imagine that could be done with a few texture updates to preserve the original DLC pack.

A special de-livery, so to speak.

If the packs are broken up by livery, wouldn't that break Workshop scenarios that use the original packs thus defeating the purpose?

This whole situation is saddening, especially since the Canadians can't even get a hold of BNSF content.
