I'm looking for a few rolling stock assets, and haven't been able to find anything on the DLS. Anybody know where I can find something that will work for these?
1. North American transfer caboose -- the "box in the middle of a flatcar" sort of thing, used on between-yards transfer jobs until the 1970s. Something like this, which is SOU XC-6 at the SC RR Museum:
2. Most of the steam locomotives out there have piston valves, or are very ornate 19th century-looking things. I'm interested in making some maps of Southeastern US shortlines. Most of those, as well as several of the Southeastern Class Is, had predominately slide-valve locomotives. A smallish slide-valve 2-8-2, a medium-sized 4-6-0, and a couple medium-sized 2-8-0s with slide valves would be ideal. Examples:
3. A variety of steampunk-looking zepplins. I've found some blimps and one zepplin on the DLS, but there's not enough variety and the blimps don't have the steampunk look I want. I tried making a 3d model of the Hindenburg I found online into an asset, but haven't been able to get it working.
4. There are a number of old-style steamships available, but they're all pretty small. I'd like to find something along the size lines of the United States, Titantic/Britannic/Olympic, Queen Mary (I), Queen Elizabeth (I), etc. for the same project as the steampunk zepplins. The modern container ships and tankers available seem a tad small, too, frankly.
