Well, yes and no. I have an empty non activated Domain that I'm going to be reactivating and build up a new and improved site to promote my reskins and future project of the SP GS-3 4-8-4(If my drawings show up by next week) and the Coast Daylight of 1937-42, but you guys can find more information on it here. viewtopic.php?f=9&t=19951

Howdy Folks,

Need some help from anyone in the know. I'm looking to try and release these cars in or around the same time Buzz releases his MILW E-8 so you can enjoy them together. However, I've hit a snag. When I created these as I mentioned before in an earlier post I had to edit some Geopcdx files to allow certain things such as the lights to work, or not work, as well as move the horn and mirrors.

So to allow you guys/gals to enjoy them I would either have to release the edited geo file, or have the end user copy and paste a section of the file(s) and leave out the meat and potatoes of the geo file. Neither of which, (as far as I know) is legal as they are both from payware software (The Gilroy Sub from DTG, and The Racetrack from Barnez/Gtrax).

Any help on this front would be greatly appreciated.
Anyway, here are some final shots. Finally done screwing around with the roof, AC fans, and interior. Also added a Leslie RS2M horn. Enjoy!

No more plugs for your cellphone. You'll just have to read the paper and enjoy the scenery like they did back when Dinosaurs roamed the earth, and school was up hill both ways!

Wonderful work!

One thing you can do is, create a detailed instruction pdf like I did with my 0-6-0's because that was an edited geo. The instructions laid out exactly what to change in the geo file. Its a DIY work around so that you aren't breaking any rules by passing out the geo.

Thanks for the compliments guys!

CArailroader,
Thanks for the tip, I have been downloading/enjoying ALL your repaints and I know what you are saying as I had to use your readme to enjoy the repaints you created.
Unfortunately, I've made sooo many changes I'd have to write a book to convey what needs to be changed, and I don't have that kind of time or patience. Plus I'd probably lose some people in the process as its not an easy edit. But I'll see what I can do, thanks again for the advice and your FINE work!

Howdy Folks,

I finally uploaded the Gallery Cars. I hope you come to enjoy them! Here are some final screen shots, not much has changed, just added some grab irons and window blanks at the last minute.
Take care

Can you convert these into the old metra bi-levels

Can you convert these into the old metra bi-levels

Sure! I have some other versions I would like to do first, but which ones did you have in mind?
For the record they still use these cars to this day.

They look like this, have an Old Brass Bell with a P5
