PCC's with changeable signs would be nice.

When I find my way to a PCC event, I'll get in and make PICTURES!! Perhaps that way I can create the PCC with changeable signs.

Hope that helped alot!

by the way, what PCC are you going to do?
4000-47xx??

 

[freightcar2]

I like the rollsigns. But I can't save the files to my computer, so I don't know.


I'm thinking of making a PCC with changeable numbers (like Magicland's subways) and several different liveries, like Cyberstorm's cable cars.

I do live in Toronto. What you mean by that???

As for 5796, I, well, don't see a picture of 5796. I see T1 shots.

 

[CLRV]

well with the liveries, do you mean the different TTC liveries, because almost every TTC PCC series changed the shade of maroon..
just look at this, and see what i mean...:

I mean by this:
"Darn it. I'm not coming to Canada until the 3rd, so I am going to have to find a different holiday."
Thats why i got confused....
Yea, i only got T1 shots that day, so no 5796... sorry
Edit;
about the roll signs, try dragging the roll signs, onto your desktop... it worked for me and then try moving it to were ever you need it to go.

 

[freightcar2]

Right now I'm on vacation.

I do find it annoying that some websites don't allow people to download files onto their computers. I mean, even for personal use?! :n:

 

[CLRV]

oh!
did you try, dragging the files into your desktop?

 

[freightcar2]

Yes. Grrr it didn't work. :n:

 

[CLRV]

then not sure, why it wont let you drag it onto your desktop! not even when you right click, and try to save it?
well here is a clrv one animated

[freightcar2]

Nope.

That's a cool CLRV one! Do you know of any H-Series ones?

 

[CLRV]

Maybe try emailing, the owner of the site, and he might give the roll signs to you?

and this is all i can find:

Umm, is anyone still interested in this thread anymore?

 

[CLRV]

I was wondering... is there any other PCC or even a TTC bus for trainz?
for buses, is there any North american buses? besides the orion v?

Not really ---
I don't believe there was a large amount of interest when the thread was started, except for you and 2 others ??

My thoughts ---DLR

No. I haven't started anything.

No. There's only the G1, TRS2006 built-in PCC, PCC from steamcanuck.ca and that's it for now. But from the site where you got the G1, you can also get the Prince Edward Viaduct. :udrool: :mop:

 

[CLRV]

i have some good/ bad news... i did see 5796 yesterday, i would of rode it but it was going the opposite way, when i was already in a T1, going in the other direction! It was the last car... sorry, no pictures ether.

Hi guys,

I'm not much into the subways, but I have made the Halton County layout, do a search for [FONT=Verdana, Arial]41078:1000808.

You also might take a look at this streetcar video.

For a PCC and G1 visit this site and check out the warehouse.

Do the Subway Cars have route textures at each end? (ex: "Kennedy") I've seen them textures in front, but do they display their direction at the back of the car?

The rear of the train will display the return trip signage.

Hi Aradlaw:

Just so you know, this thread is for discussing Toronto Subway's, Buses, Streetcars, and anything else owned (or that was once owned) by the TTC.

I saw your Halton County route on the DLS a while ago, I haven't gotten around to downloading it yet though.

I'll take a look at the Screetcar video.

LOL, wasn't that the site I mentioned a couple of pages ago Looks nice tho'.

Yes, I know that about the return trip, but I wasn't talking about the rear of the train, but of one car. Never mind, found the answer.

@CLRV: Yesterday I went on the TTC RT and Subway! :udrool: I got some cool photos and videos. I will not be sharing the videos, and I'll have to resize the pictures to not meet the limit.

 

[freightcar2]

A question: are any of the TTC's GM New Look "Fishbowls" buses still in service??? If so, what route can I find 'em on?
