No they don't. The D&RGW and WVRR heavyweight cars are full models made by trainboi1, as are all the Harriman wood cars. I checked.

Yes, they are Tigerko15 kitbashes of Ben Neal's small Baldwin 2-8-2 from the early 2000s.

Most likely the website is shutting down for good. They haven't released anything new in several years. From what I've heard some of it will show back up on other sites.

Yep, it's an air horn, and an automatic bell is under the cab as well.

Search for P-10 instead. The Exact File is "Southern Pacific Class P-10 4-6-2"

If it's not the L&N H25 A, then I have no clue, but there's a similarly-styled 2-8-0 on Greencoast Studios, which reopened recently

Trainboi1 has made some heavyweights and Harriman wood coaches that feature the full range of car types for the Rio Grande, Southern Pacific, and Washoe Valley. Also worth noting is their payware has very, very good unique passenger cars for the NKP and their fictional railroads.

Happy to help. Far too much time wasted searching through steamlocomotive.com and in the library looking at photo records of all sorts of goofy choo-choos, at least I can finally put some of it to use. Here's a picture I found online of a Central Vermont 2-8-0 with the second funnel visible on...

The booster is powered by steam from the boiler through a pipe. Tender boosters would usually exhaust smoke out of a second funnel on the rear of the tender, similar to a Triplex. Since the booster isn't on in the video, I can't tell you for sure whether there actually was a second funnel.

There are some heavyweight cars also on Trainz Forge (D&RG/WP Heavyweight Passenger Cars is the exact file name), but if you're looking for lightweights, there are almost certainly some on the DLS, though their quality may leave a little to be desired.

SP/T&NO Sunbeam 4-6-2s are on the DLS as the SP P-10 by trainboi1 (He also has some Atlantics in the Daylight Scheme too) Unsure about those particular passenger cars, but there is a full Daylight consist, along with every type of GS locomotive at Trainz Forge. If you want payware, there are...

I have not, but I have a few other Rio-Grande themed books: "Rocky Mountain Railroads, Volume II" which covers all of the Rio Grande's Narrow Gauge, and my personal favorite, "Chasing Trains" by Bob Richardson, which is essentially his autobiography and covers all of his adventures around the US...

I used to live on the front range, and spent a lot of time vacationing in the San Juan range or in the Gunnison area. Part of the reason I love trains was growing up with the Moffat Route about 2 blocks from my house. Not quite sure my parents loved the sounds on the other hand. My railroad...

The biggest difference is the loss of the connecting narrow gauge lines, and the growth of the town of Durango itself. The rolling stock isn't that much different.

Someone has made the DEM map, and they've made an 1895 version, but no modern-day version, although you could update it if you asked for permission from the route creator
