You're welcome!

I thought it was another 15 years (retiring around 2030) like in the Engines Of Via YouTube series.

Spoke with an engineer at VIA the other day. He said they have about 20/25 in them.

VIA may retire the oldest ones in the coming years but I can’t see them all going that quick

Would love to see more updated VIA assets in Trainz

Yessir! Got them all! Most of the coaches and consists seem to be 3.7 and older though. Although for that there is some very good stuff there!

Jumping on the VIA bandwagon:

Looks great! Now we just need the Via Rail Siemens Charger

 

[Forester1]

Well now! I have seven consists by escd84, manweb, dragonharh, and gilles81. I even have the loco and one car of the Turbo trains (VIA, CN, and AMTRAK). They all look great, but none newer than 4.0. But I have not seen the consist with the yellow stripe in your middle shot, PerRock! Is that DLS? That looks like the modern version I am looking for, chronologically as well as maybe version!
PS - Thanks for your help on the Discord today. I don't normally Discord, so hope my faux pas were not too great!

 

[Trainmaster189]

I think these are all great PerRock!

 

[HoggerDrew]

I may have to take inspiration from that Charger-inspired F40, PerRock! They all look great!

 

[HoggerDrew]

VIA 'Modern Heritage' units anyone?

What about a 'Charger' inspired full wrap?

Or maybe a full car GO ad for the new Chargers?

 

[Jdriver]

I like them, just amazing looking at them

 

[HoggerDrew]

I know I've shown the Heritage F40 before, but it was lonely and needed a stablemate

 

[Jdriver]

I can just imagine a real Via Rail P42 in the livery. It's totally my favorite livery of Via Rail

 

[HoggerDrew]

Honestly I wish VIA had kept one or two F40’s in the Canada scheme after rebuilding. Would’ve saved them money too, because they’ve had to repaint the cars to match the engines lol.

As for the P42’s, I’m not sure what would look better; this or the LRC paint job

 

[DARTrider]

Revamped the SPSF stuff, more accurate colors and such.

 

[HoggerDrew]

Looks great Dart! Always had a soft spot for Shouldn’t Paint So Fast

Same, always wished the railroad had merged.

 

[HoggerDrew]

LRC Part Deux?
