Can Some one please direct me some nice coachs? I been on the Cmp and there is only a few on there does anyone know where i can get them for free?
 
Stumbling across them has always been a problem. EU is rather big, care to narrow it down, what sort of time period are you interested in?

CMP tends not to list items submitted for different version of Trainz eg. Acela express is not listed there because it was made during SP3 times but it works fine in 2006 except the cab.
 

As far as I know there are no suburban Mk1 coaches available as freeware (in fact I didn't even know about the payware ones, but alas I have no money to buy them), but there are some other Mk1s available. Try searching under the username Magandy or sdark on the DLS. Neither set of models is perfect, but they are good. If you want something a bit more modern, Pikkabird build some MkII stock, and on Bloodnok's site is the beta of the MkIII, but they aren't available on the DLS.

There are also older coaches available too - John (johnwhelan), are the GWR coaches under your KUID? Also search for "LBSCR", for some coaches that predate but are similar to the Suburban stock you found on PaulzTrainz.

There's a thread in Freeware about some new Polish coaches, and there are some really smart German (I think) coaches available on the DLS, but I can't remember the names of either creators. Maybe someone else could chip in with those.

Also take a look at Ibertrainz, if Spanish Renfe stock interests you.

Finally, be aware that this is far from an exhaustive list, and there is loads out there.

Hope that helps a bit at least,
BidMod :D
 

Do a search for mk1 in cmp,

Also try LMS and adding in category rolling stock. You can use the same trick for GWR etc.

There is a fair bit of content under my name but also Bobsanders, Chris Nawlins look under nawlins, have their name on some variations.

Generally speaking if you'd like something that isn't there provided we have permission to reskin the group I work with are normally quite happy to reskin or repaint something for you.

All the coaches should have a category assigned which is not searchable in cmp. However it is searchable on the DLS, the categorys are listed in the Content creators guide in the appendixes. The ones you want are

P PASSENGER & MAIL CARS
PA Suburban/short haul (no W.C.)
PB Baggage cars
PC Coach/chair cars
PD Dome cars
PH Bar/cafeteria cars
PL Lounge cars
PM Mail cars
PO Observation cars
PP Power cars
PR Buffet/dining/restaurant cars
PS Sleeping cars
PU Special cars (e.g. Gaming Cars)
PV Private cars
PX Composite passenger cars

However not all coaches are correctly labelled. If you notice a problem with any of mine please let me know.

Sometimes the front end hangs on the weekend so it needs to be rebooted on Monday morning or Sunday evening local time when Auran come into work. Generally speaking it is available.

If it be EU passenger stock you're looking for, one of the best sources is:

http://www.kbs620.de/trainz/site/downloads.php

It includes this wonderful observation car that I used in a RiversideRailroad session:

It's passenger interactive, of course.

Wrong, just send me an email and I'll send them to you.

Wow, thanks. I'll send that off to you in a few minutes then :) It's headed to the Hotmail address I plucked from the BT10 bogey.

Are they a solid model (like JW's and BS's GWR stock) or do they have a modelled interior (like the default MK1s, even if they are a little bit out of shape)?

BidMod.

PS - for the German coaches, the ones I was thinking of were the "riengold" set, but I imagine there are others.

EDIT - I see the address only has three 's' in - should there be four - two to each name? (it's not sent yet, just in case some poor unsuspecting user gets the email instead of you). If you want to just cut out the email to you, my public address is available here - http://bidmod.googlepages.com/contact.htm. It'll require a little extracting to cut down the spam, and it'll need the word "personal" somewhere in the subject bar. It doesn't matter where, but it just makes it float above any spam that does get chucked into there.

Excuse the off-topic, but did you ever have any luck with finding any Canadian stock? (I'm fairly certain it was you who asked, but I apologise if I've mixed you up with someone else!:confused:)

BidMod. :D
