New Thrall Coal Gondolas from RRMods

[BoostedFridge]

So for each 'car', there are actually three cars: for example, the BN car has Thrall_4000cf_BN_575000_1, Thrall_4000cf_BN_575000_2, and Thrall_4000cf_BN_575000_3, which are the three skin variants. The other two cars following the same naming convention.

Are the skin variants indicative of varying degrees of weathering? I looked on your site for pictures of each, but all the cars appear pretty clean.

They are all individual models, however, to the naked eye from a distance they probably don't look very different, but, up close their is a change in the weathered textures, you need to look more closely, they aren't extreme, if that's what you meant, subtle, I think, is the word......

Cheerz. ex-railwayman.

@guido73...
Myself and another member have stated and asked about some issues with obtaining your Thrall Gondolas.
Is there any chance you ( or RRMods ) could at least let us know what or where you are in getting back to us with an answer.

Thanks!

Just picked up all 3 mini packs, very nice quality and sounds!

I do have one suggestion about the download process. Instead of each individually weathered car being a different .rwp file (3 files for each livery), it would save time if all 3 cars in each livery were packaged together.

Thanks! we'll work to incorporate your feedback for future releases.

I looked for these over the weekend. I had seen on FB that there was an upcoming release, but was checking the other site I didn't know about the guido rrmods page. Thanks for sharing.

Funny I was just looking at your site maybe an hour ago and saw no new items, ate dinner, and now I see this post!

...saw no new items, ate dinner, and now I see this post!

You'd be surprised what happens during dinner time!

Great job on the second batch! Just enough added weathering to tell a difference between them. And thank you very much for the simplified packaging!

IIRC the Union Pacific actually uses some of these cars to haul garbage on their garbage trains from Seattle to Oregon. I do believe they are the cars that have the orange color in the back. Could we possibly get a trash car version?

Great Work!

Have any pictures?

The 1st and 3rd are Thrall 4000s cut down to 2800cf for scrap steel. The middle looks like a Darby 4000cf, a different car manufacturer.
