Hi,
What do you mean by "maybe a longer working one?"?
I have modded the inbuilt container station from the content creation art source cds and have doubled the amount of general goods it holds to 238, now i'm looking into how to extend it further.
At this time i'm thinking of leaving the current 20ft & 40ft containers where they are and how many of them there is, but adding in tank container and other containers and 2 more loading tracks.

hi mate
i meant that the whole length of the intermodal could be used to unload a full goods train.
like when you run industry and your goods train blocks the mainline while it crawls through the goods depot and unloads 1 - 3 wagons at a time
it always blocks my mainline like that.
i try to keep the roads the right lenght like shown on the track diagrams
so if i could find a long one like that then i could unload the train in 1 or 2 goes
sorry about the long reply
other containers would be great
also 2 extra tracks would be great
do you have any tnt containers?
also are there any containers with open doors.
i would love to have one where the goods were being seen to be transhipped form the back or side of an open semitrailer and by forklift into an open container like they do in real life
thanks and cheers

Hi,
Oh ok, I know what you mean, I'll have to have a look into it to see if possible when I work out exactly what is going to be added to the one I'm doing.
Maybe more triggers, or even see if there's a way of doing something in between 2 triggers so that all wagons in between 2 triggers will be unloaded/loaded. Only thing that would hinder this is the AI drivers and how they work with it as they only drive to a certain point then unload each wagon as they go.
Yep, I'm sure I have the TNT containers, but don't know of any containers that are open though.
Reason why I put industries on sidings off the main line as to not hinder the main line traffic flow.

Hi,
On the DLS there are 20ft and 40ft TNT containers by Charlie (cjlear), I converted them to products so I can use them on my layouts.
Ok, understand that, I usually make the siding long enough to cover the entire train by measuring it all out, takes extra time in the setting up of the layout but then I know that problem won't arise...
No problems, I'll make a decision on what to do and see how much work it is.
hi
"unload the train in 1 or 2 goes"
Yes, can be done. On DLS you have Rules;
InstantLoad 2:117290:1017:1
InstantUnload 2:117290:1021:1
With them you can load/unload the whole train just by a mouse-click.
HTH
i cannot find these on the dls
AussieNightcrawler
i have these thanks
i am trying to turn the two axle and the three axle tnt trailers into loads as well
that would be very cool
cheers and thanks
until later on
