Hello, fellow Trainz men
i am working on the library but have decided to ask for your expert advice. I need rolling stock for TANE from the early 1900s, wooden box cars, high side wooden gondolas, flat cars and passenger cars hopefuly closed vestibule shorter than heavy with monitor roofs. I know this may be a high demand but i am hoping to find stand ins until i can gain the mastery of format here to make new ones. this will be for testing and working on an historic route from that era and they had remarkable assets including box cars and gondolas with six truss rods. I will try what i can find of the older stock but am finding some older items show up and some do not. Not sure why yet.

i will also need wooden sided cabeese ..i can clone and repaint what is needed as i have all of the research done and models in another format completed for a large fleet and so have all of the textures and data needed. Just need some decent stand ins for the testing and development. thanks for help on this if you have time and know what to look for. thanks in advance. Box cars were between 26 and 40 feet, gondolas and flats same, cabeese also mostly that range.
 
I made a series of wooden passenger cars circa 1900 - 1910. Do a search for TOTC (Turn Of The Century) cars

Try some of Trainboi1s wooden passenger cars that are available on Trainz Forge and I would recommend to keep an eye on his projects because he is mostly modeling around the time span you are interested in. Also bendorsey has some TOTC coaches that can be re-lettered to whatever railroad name you want. For NG there is a quite a bit more to offer from many people such as Whitepass, Togog, Bendorsey(again), Vulcan, NarrowGauge, etc. so far there is more NG 19th century stuff than SG. But that's just for American continent, for British stuff well there 10 times more but that's a whole another suggestion.
 
thanks all, thanks Ben and thanks Matt, sorry, SG it is for Rollins Pass...but will go look at all of your suggestions thanks a lot

and yes the Carson Shops was going to be first on my shopping run.his are wonderful and very appropriate..was not sure if they work in TANE yet but am hoping.
