Looking For Models Of 4-8-4 Steam Locomotives

[ChugLifeBoy]

Hello, everyone! I recently bought the New York Central Niagara steam locomotive from K&L Trainz and I have found myself completely in awe of it in every way, so much so that I've been looking for other 4-8-4 steam locomotives to test against the Niagara!

But I've been looking for some specific 4-8-4 steam locomotives that I want to add to my collection! I'll list them down below!

1. Central of Georgia 4-8-4 "Big Apple"

2. Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe 3751

3. South African Railways 26 Class (Red Devil)

4. Reading T1

Those are all of the ones that I've been particularly interested in finding! If anyone knows where to get them, please let me know because I'd be really grateful for your help!

K&L Trainz also has the Reading T-1 4-8-4 locomotive, textured as in original freight service, as in Reading Rambles service, and as in American Freedom Train No. 1. Along with Reading coaches in two paint schemes, and the entire American Freedom Train consist.

There's also freeware T-1's on the DLS by leeferr but K&L Trainz's are better. Although Leeferr's has the correct 1 in 2102 on the cab sides, Steve used a different 1 that slants at the top from a different railroad font. They are easily replaceable though in the tga files. K&L has a 2102 with Reading and Northern on the tender since he updated the pack a while ago. And are those steam locomotive models at WIT ones from the defunct Backshop? Great to see them return because you can't even download anything from the Backshop through Wayback archive, either, the downloads don't work. Some other things from the Backshop like railroad crossing signs, vehicles and other things are on other sites like Approach Medium.

If you're looking for 4-8-4s to test, why not also try engines like the FEF and the GS series on Trainz Forge, and the N&W J, also from K&L?




As for the Red Devil.........................there isn't one. The best you can do is a reskin of an existing 4-8-4, but that's about it.
