ex-GER J70 or Y6?

[nickman222]

Hey guys.

I know this is a little bit stupid, but does anyone know where i could get a BR, GER, or LNER Tram like a J70 or a Y6? If you can, please link it because i can't find any. Thanks!

There's a 5-year old model here

http://www.auran.com/TRS2004/DLS_downloadasset.php?DownloadID=88504

or search for
"G.E.R Steam Tram"

It's a nice model. All that's needed is the 4-wheel and 8-wheel tramway coaches to go with it. In my 'real' modelling days I made some in both OO and O gauge from drawings published in magazines. I only wish my skills were up to tackling them for Trainz!

If you download the above Tram and it shows faulty then post here - I should be able to help you fix it.

 

[nickman222]

yes, it is faulty. What should I do?

Look under bearcat245 on the DLS I have done many tram items

 

[ray_whiley]

Thanks, bearcat245, I will have a look. But these were very specific coaches used only on the Wisbech and Upwell Tramway in the East Anglian Fens (and transferred elsewhere when the line closed - one was said to have been wrecked in the film 'The Titfield Thunderbolt) - and although others could be used with these engines (the prototype for Toby in the Thomas stories by the Rev. W Awdry) they would not really be the same.

I must dig out my drawings and gave a go in the New Year!

Ray

Yes , I've looked through your models - very nice - but nothing like the coaches pulled by the GER tram locos on the roadside Wisbech and Upwell. I would, however, certainly enjoy running them on a city tram route.

To add to the above, there's an illustration of these unique coaches at http://www.lner.info/co/GER/wisbech/stock.shtml

I can't remember exactly what I did to fix mine - if you post the contents of the "Errors and Warnings" dialog box here it would help...

For the coach, you could find Toby's coach Henrietta on Sodor Island 3D 2009, or find MSTNoodle's model. That would at least get you the 4-wheel version.

@Ray Whiley: The Titfield Thunderbolt. An excellent film!

Thanks for the suggestion - I didn't know that this existed.

@captainkman -

The Titfield Thunderbolt. An excellent film!

Agreed - wholeheartedly.

Read this: http://www.lner.info/co/GER/wisbech/toby_mavis.shtml

It tells of Toby the J70 and Henrietta, and Mavis the diesel.

Down the bottom is Wisbech & Upwell coach No. 7 or 8 behind 14xx 1401 in The Titfield Thunderbolt.

‘Steam_tram_shadow/back-white.texture’ is missing or could not be loaded for mesh ‘steam_tram_shadow/shadow.im’.

The *.texture.txt file is missing for texture resource ‘attachments/front.texture’.


I have a mac so i can't use any programs to fix it. is this an easy fix?

Just add a mesh table.

Use this tutorial by myself, unless Macs have no Content Manager.

[nickman222]

i did that. It did not work and that missing mesh file was already present.

Try my other tutorial. Same series, episode 2.

 

[nickman222]

Again, nothing. If I gave you my email, could you export your fixed one and send it to me?

 

[nickman222]

ok. for the most part, i fixed it. Does anyone know what front.texture on it looks like?
