Repainting the DTM Alco FA-1/FB-1

[TDHenderson]

Have any of the pros here tackled a repaint of the DTM Alco FA-1/FB-1's yet? If so and if interested in a request shout out on this thread.

Wabash FA-1/FA-2 (they had FB-1's as well but I cannot locate a picture of those)

One issue though. ATSF never had any FA/FBs They had the PA.

I would love to see it in Spokane, Portland & Seattle colors. It will look realy nice with early BN trains.

Didn't Lord Mannu make a set of FA's? (can't find them in the library tho)

Hah! Found them! viewtopic.php?f=14&t=994 (or did y'all know that already, and I'm late to the party again) NVM, just realized what DTM is.

The above posted MOPAC photos are of the PA passenger units. The PA's & FA's had two different paint schemes. the PA scheme was more streamlined to match the passenger trains.

While the FA's ran in this scheme

Very much a WIP, not happy with the colors yet...



Still sorting the mapping out as well.



Closer...

I have completed the model, and have permission from Mr. Pach to set them up for public download. Of course, it will require the purchase of the original loco set, as I cannot include shape or animation files.

Updated: Hawk has the files..

If you don't mind; Would you let me know what you think of the documentation? It it too much, or does it cover what you need?

Thanks, MM

Well, personaly I am an advanced Railworks USER (not developer), so I am used to install addons so it is a routine for me. I dont mind a long ReadMe, but It is very helpfull to new RW users. When I started with RW the readme files helped me a lot.
