How did I miss this post? Buzz - I love you too, man!

Looks like it's out now. https://live.dovetailgames.com/live/tra ... ration-gem

Apparently I was mislead by the DTM crew about that stupid Pennsy antenna being a child object so you could do other road models so I am turning my purchase back in. I was only interested so I could paint some other roads.

No Erie?

Maybe if you insist upon DTM they will publish a revised version. Or a repaint kit.

No Erie?

I will share my Erie paint with you based off of the old model. I'll get it packed up tonight.

DTM has reached out and assured me that a NO antenna model is on its way and in the famous DTG/Steam que somewhere.

The boys at DTM are good eggs - glad they followed up with you.

Hmmmm... looks like lots of painting yet to do; should be fun though:

Glad to finally get an FA; looking forward to the no-antenna version so we can set about doing some repaints for other roads.

Started on the Jeep and M4; still some tweaking to do, but I think they're going to look okay when finished:

There are already a couple of threads regarding this dlc, here and in the DTM sub-forum; so once I make some more progress, I'll likely post in the repaints section so this doesn't conflict with the loco-specific stuff. I was going to add some unit-specific markings, but since those were normally added by the receiving unit, I'll leave them in their factory-fresh generic scheme. Now to grab some research photos to ensure the markings are correctly sized and placed accordingly for WWII service.
Hopefully I'll have some more shots for Veterans Day

Maybe this was on purpose?
During the war a lot of military equipment was shipped to allies, I suppose they would not bear US Army markings.

You're absolutely correct. I forgot all about the lend-lease program Oh well.. back to route-building.

[Chacal]

Well I didn't mean you should stop, most of this stuff was for the US Army after all.
I was just supposing why the loads had no markings.

Well I have a simple fix... Just paint the "Star" red, and easy-peasy Russian Jeep / Tank. How that for Lend-Lease.
