Harriman Coaches - Emperor Of The North

[frogpipe]

So, there's a passenger train in EOTN, and it appears to me that the coaches are all Harriman coaches - last one *might* be a Pullman - but most look to be Harriman

Ben Dorsey has some nice, but old, Harriman coaches - but they are tiled textured and use "text effects" for the road name, which always looks really bad on my system...

Whitepass made a Harriman BAGGAGE car, but no coaches that I can see. Shame, since his are texture mapped...

So does anyone know of any others? Anyone know of any similar - I'm not a rivet counter, so the big thing to me is that it's texture mapped, has that smooth rounded roof, and smallish windows. The roof vents would be nice, but I could live without them...

I thought in the flick "Emperor of the North", it was a freight train, but there was a passenger consist also where the rails were greased by hobos.

Yeah, that's the one I'm talking about... I think in real life those cars were used for the Excursion Train that the OP&E ran, the "Blue Goose". Either way, they were marked Oregon Pacific and Eastern and appear to be "Harriman" cars (based on photos I've found of real Harriman cars, I can't find any reference as to what they used in EOTN)

The text on the ones I made can be removed by deleting the effects section of the config files mesh table (or just deleting the letters between the quotation marks). It could be put back if you change your mind by re-entering the necessary text since the attachment points would still be in the mesh.

In addition to Ben's cars there is a nice arch roof suburban car, "CNJ Arch Roof Coach," on the DLS by Magicland.

DISCO Bernie. That'll work!

Although you can't see it, I've already re-lettered them as OP&E (and added groundplane shadows)
