Looking for a diesal locomotive engine as a scenary and also one as a visable load. Could not fine any under name engine and some other names. Thinking maybe listed under differnt name or something. Any Ideas where there might be one on the dls? Thanks
 
You can always create a scenery locomotive by modifying the config.txt file. This is done by removing all the operating parts, reference to engine-specs, horn sounds, etc., and change the kind to scenery.

The issue you'll run into is the bogies will no longer work, and they they too will have to be turned into scenery objects.

Once completed, the bogies can be placed and adjusted to line up with the rails on a piece of track and the locomotive body placed on top of the bogies.

Seen here is my modified switcher sitting on a siding as a stuffed locomotive. You can do the same with a diesel of course.

For use as a load, that process maybe similar.

not sure as i does not show for trainz 2019 not sure for trainz 12 as its database has been rebuild for 3+ hours now
 
It is in my Trains 2019 Platinum, but it is version 2.4, so it should go back a ways...
There are actually engines 1,2,3 & 4...
