The only one that I know of is.... <kuid:51275:21655098> QR IMU M and <kuid:51275:2120076> QR IMU DT by williamg
and does not look as up to date as your image.

There is no QR 160/260 class in Trainz yet as far as I know, although as I understand it there were several people working on them a while ago, but I haven't heard anything new on that since, so I can only assume the projects have folded (which is sad as the 160/260 class is very similar to the Transperth B series EMUs which would be useful for me too). Either way, as far as I know, there is no current Trainz version for them.
From what I understand the terms 'SMU' and 'IMU' are simply terms used by the Queensland Railways (QR) to differentiate those cars from their earlier EMU stock and from what I can gather are terms not used anywhere else, even in Australia (I believe SMU stands for 'Suburban Multiple Unit', and IMU 'Interurban Multiple Unit', the difference being the IMU stock is meant for slightly longer distances and thus has toilets on board, what in other countries would be called 'Intercity' trains). Either way, the earlier QR sets were simply called EMUs, so this is a way of differentiating the newer trains from the older stock.

Yes I've seen that one, QR IMU the one before the QR IMU 160. Looks pretty good but really suprised no one has officially made or released the QR IMU 160

Whilst on the topic of Queensland content, what's the best route on the DLS or anywhere for these trains to run on?
