May be used on any freeware route without further permission.
If you can convert it to be used with Rail Simulator, that's okay, too.
Only the usual acknowledgement is asked for in the route readme, plus
the acknowledgements as written below.

::Acknowledgements::

To Phil Baines for the wonderful gift of the book that had the plans (British Coasters).
Also for his cheerful help, advice and cooperation converting my source files to RW format.

To Gor, for his Carbonia route and his initial request for such a vessel for the route, to
be placed in the Port of Bilbao, where it is now.

ATTENTION: REQUIRES CRITICAL PATCH ONE, WHICH ADDS MISSING .BIN FILE
AVAILABLE: FROM ET FILE LIBRARY. (13.January 2010)


:::Notes:::


The model is approx 23,000 polys.
Place the ship's hull in the water at a depth to either simulate a lightly laden, or heavy laden
ship. For instance, light ship would have about six or seven feet of red showing, a more heavy laden
ship would have the water line at around the white band.
The trick is to have the hull slightly down at the stern end, by a few feet or more. This looks more
natural and is how a ship would sit in the water if the rear holds were full. It is also were the
bulk of the weight lies. Experiment with the setting. Never place it dead level, it does not look right.

The MV Infanta and SS Arundel are of approximately the same era of shipping. These ships were trading
up until the early 1970's, most were scrapped after that.

The ship does not carry a name....this makes it more flexible for placing it with others in the same scene and
means less uploading/downloading of files.

Please ENJOY using the model and I'd like to see a screenshot, too.

Cheers
