those if memory serves correct, are actually modeled thus cannot be moved, you could probably texture in something where you need it but you'd still have the rear headlight.

Let's just say that the Chicago & Illinois Midland remained a regional railroad. What if they purchased some SD70M's? Here's what it might look like right out of the paint shop. Decorated in the later "Lightning Scheme."

Switched meshes to the other WM SD40 as a better representation.... not as simple as switching meshes thats for sure....

 
Chicago & Illinois Midland

I've recently been working on reskinning a couple of modern locomotives for the Chicago and Illinois Midland. What if they had survived? What would their modern locomotive roster look like? Yesterday I posted an SD 70M. Today, an SD59M

I have made a few C&IM models 2 RS1325 #30 &31, sd20 #80 & 2 SD18s #60 & #61 Your welcome to touch them up they are a bit outdated there on DLS or you can PM me if interested in them.

Using the K&L WK&S 0-6-0t.

As B&O, not a prototype, done for a friend. We were discussing Docksiders and...

As BEDT 15. Likely as close as we'll get to an actual BEDT engine in Trainz. Handrails should be yellow, but I can't find a handrail texture. Probably shared with something else...

WK&S 65 was mocked up as 15 for a bit. Actually, the real BEDT 15 still exists at Strasburg, as yet another unfortunate "Thomas the Tank Engine" replica. Sort of like McMurphy after the lobotomy. JMO. I understand why they do this, but I sure wish they wouldn't.

Smyers,
Those are really well done! :cool: They look really nice, lettered that way. I especially like the red framing on the cab doors and windows of the BEDT!

Many thanks. AFAIK, the BEDT engines had red window framing, at least 15 did. I wish I could find the handrails. Of course, if they're sharing a texture with another part it wouldn't matter anyway. Something else I wish they'd stop.

Here is a pair of USRA 0-6-0 switchers I reskinned from AltoDave/PhilSkene's fantastic UP 0-6-0. Left is a PRR B28s #2402, right is a CB&Q G5a #515. These are going on the DLS soon. Both of them have custom 3 part whistle sounds, upgraded smoke effects, swapped engine sounds and a new engine spec.
