Question: How hard would it be to turn a 2-8-2 into a 4-6-2

Click to expand...

For a mod like CN S1b to CP G2, you would need to own the mesh and learn Blender to alter the features. To just switch out wheels, you would need to dive into the Trainz wiki and learn how to manipulate the bogie tag in the config file. The results will depend on the level of plausibility you are willing to accept.

@Casey - Yeah I swapped the bogies and started moving them into place, just the main drivers are too far ahead but I may get it sorted out.

@Rail4Pete - I own the Kitbash G2, however the cab is the wrong shape for a CP loco.....it's rounded/slanted instead of squared off

Excellent pics everyone

Originally this is CNR Switch stand by tlanders, but I made my own version with a dimmed corona light so there is not much glare.

Hiawathamr,
Really nice shots. Is this an extention to your Canadian switching route? Is that route still coming out? Just curious. I hadn't seen any more pics posted of it.

Cheers Heinrich505

Nope, this is a different route; the DEM data and most of the tracks are actually based from a shortline railroad that isn't too far from me. Of course, I added my own personal touches that the real line doesn't have here and there

The Industrial Switching route is scheduled to come out (probably when SP2 comes out due to how the TCCP handles the new packaging system). If you want to get a sneak peak, you can sign up for the beta tester role and claim the package here: https://tccp.auran.com/beta_packages.php


Cheers

Some shots from the Lake Erie CP Cattaraugus Sub......unlike other CP divisions, Cattaraugus was able to keep their branding, albiet in CPR colours, up until 1980
