MSTS/ORTS MISCELLANEOUS 30 TON FLAT CARS
EQUIPPED WITH KNUCKLE COUPLERS
**HIGH DETAIL WITH MEDIUM POLYGON COUNTS**
MODEL MESH BY TIM MUIR
TEXTURES BY TIM MUIR, WAYNE CAMPBELL (WHEEL FACES) AND CGTEXTURES.COM (weathering source materials).
Here are 2 Southern Pacific CS-8 flat cars from the 1890's to 1900's, along with a San Fransisco & North Pacific RR and Chicago,
Milwaukee & St.Paul Ry flat car. Also included is a Rutland 30-ton drop bottom gondola. All with M.C.B. Knuckle couplers.
Model Background and Data:
The models were built using Train Sim Modeler Pro by Abacus. They are highly detailed. I have given them all 4 levels of detail, or
LODs.
Installation and utilization:
Install the usual way, unzip to a temporary folder, copy the contents to your Trainset folder, then make up a consist with the editor
of your choice.
There are empty (_mt) and loaded (_ld) wag files for each car. There are four different lumber loads for the flatcars, coal and gravel
for the gondolas. These have their own wag files and can be accessed in the consist editor.
I wish to thank the following folks for thier assistance along the way:
Steve Thompson, as mentioned, for digging deep in his collections and supplying rare photos.
Jim Bebenroth, for testing the cars, supplying bark textures for the log loads and for suggestions.
Anthony W. Thompson, author of "Southern Pacific Freight Cars, Volume 3:Automobile Cars and Flat Cars", which contains the drawings
used to build the flat car model.
Thank you for your patronage. Have a Nice Day.
