Thanks AD602000
Still a bit of work to go, problem is getting the "grills" to stay dark, they seem to like reflecting the light.

Have had a whole heap of error reports coming from trainz last month, I un-installed it, went back to re-install it and it wouldn't let me, have asked evereyone about it, even Auran (they still won't reply to my E-mails).
I think that it was for the best anyway, when trainz was working I had 2 Beyer Garrats to finish in TT scale made from cardboard and household materials, then I only had the 1st units which was meerly the tank on frames with driver wheels, no Rods, no Cylinders, no headlight, no buffers, no cowcatchers and no front or trailing bogeys.
Now I have allmost finished both apart from the paint...........
I think that I have spent over 2 1/2 years on this project, and the past month has been the most well spent month of my life, so far.
It has been like making 2 full size beyer garrats, what I'd like to see is one in 5'' gauge. My theory is that ANY locomotive can be made in 5'' (I've even seen a Triplex). Any locomotive, apart from a QR Beyer Garrat, I'ts been so hard just to make 2 of them out of cardboard in TT scale, I,ve learnt that they're so complex, which I think makes it so different form the other Beyer Garrats. I even thought 3 years ago that it was going to take me up to 10 years to make them, It makes me want to try to make one in 5'' now...........

Well there is no time like the present, If you want to reskin/retexture something, here is an offer of a mesh for you to practice on to develop those skills and maybe have a look at how things are made so there is no mystery to it. there is no mesh building involved, all you would be doing is retexturing something which is reskinning but getting to map the texture as well. The offer is there if you want it
You need a 500 Class (CT or HCT) behind the 400 Class - that big "hump" on the wagon is the air conditioner unit and without a power generator (on the 100 Class) to run it the passengers are gonna get mighty hot and stuffy!

I went on the Canberra-Monaro express many years ago, it was a 900 class railcar. It "was" meant to be airconditioned, could hardly tell though. It was hot and stuffy alright.
......I don't know what came over me. Sometimes I just can't help myself.:hehe:Already had to go to hospital because of my Asthma last night, now shock
Geez...Between Cardiff workshops, AD602000 and Billegulla I'm going into melt-down

Lol, and Rai had to go to the doctors to get stitches in his hand for attempting to 'take the trains out of the monitor'. CWS should change their name to MOB SQUAD.
