Container Car repaints?

Postby DAL3294 » Sat Dec 22, 2012 8:33 pm

Is it possible for someone to repaint the default containers on the stack cars we are given by RSC? I dont mean repaint the actual well cars I mean repaint the containers themselves?

Paint schemes we need are:
Green or red HUB group ( http://www.hubgroup.com/wp-content/uplo ... odal-2.jpg )
UMAX ( http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/pictur ... ge1023.jpg )
Pacer stacktrain (above image)
EMP (green)

The G Trax models are nice cars however Im not sure if they are 53ft cars and the container sizes differ between the top and bottom containers on those which isnt accurate for the domestic 53ft container ops these days. The RSC Car while not too great would be excellent with correctly painted containers.

If you look at the back of the trainsim.com file library you will find a huge repaint pack for the default cars.

Its one of the first files created for this sim very early on. Its incredible that so few people use them.
It seems in many screen shots that the default,plain Jane shoe box containers are preferred by most users, or they don't know any better.
I'm having problems trying to introduce them to the default containers in Sherman Hill. Some help would be appreciated.
Enjoy em. *!greengrin!*

now it would be nice if someone could update the pack to add more containers as some of the bigger shippers are missing from the pack...MAERSK for one, plus it would be nice to see some like JB Hunt, BNSF, UP, NS, CSX, Pacer Stacktrain, and...you guessed it, what I always ask for, More CN....... !*roll-laugh*!

There are tons more interesting ones too. I just got back from a roadtrip along the UP and saw tons of "Hamburg Süd" containers.

Does anyone know of a resource for good container pictures? I did some with the new CSX logo for the GTrax cars and would be glad to do some more.
