Awesome work. How did you change around the side windows? Are those child objects or are they actually part of the side texture?

I’d tell you but then I would have to kill you. !*roll-laugh*! !*roll-laugh*! !*roll-laugh*!


Seriously, I changed the texture from the phaseII E8 for this. If you’re wanting to do a repaint let me know and I will send you a blank template. Let me know if you want a one or two headlight version.

The original great pumpkin is definitely alive and well now, in the trainsim community! !*roll-laugh*!

Apologies for needlessly bumping this old topic, but does this loco include a set of matching coaches? Due to my location I'm unable to purchase the GN Empire Builder set on Steam. I added the Amtrak E8 to my wishlist just for this reskin.

I think this is about all that's out there in Free ware.

Just found these. They don't seem to be as good as the Steam ones but I guess it's better than nothing. Thanks.

What cars can you buy that you think are 'better' than the G-TraX ones? Perhaps you can entice someone into doing a livery for you from whatever is available to you.

I just pity the fact that BNSF's licensing issues with Dovetail don't allow the purchase of the Empire Builder set outside of the US, along with anything BNSF-related. It's ridiculous. I don't pretend anyone to do anything for me, I'm just a beginner in TS and I wanted to know any decent alternatives to the coaches I simply cannot purchase due to my location. I apologize if I sounded rude. The G-Trax coaches are fine, I just checked them on the scenario editor. But from what I can see in screenshots the Empire Builder set from Dovetail seems to be more up to date in terms of visual quality. I just wish it wasn't strictly region-locked. I tried to find alternative purchase methods like in G2A, but they never have stock.
