MSTS CSR Birneys No 12, 15, 17, 18, 19, 22 & 24
-----------------------------------------------

This pack contains all Birney safety cars which were still at the
roster of the Cornwall Street Railway in Ontario by 1948. The paint
depicts several liveries which were used in the 1940ies. I used
TSM-files and interior textures by Matt Austin and Tim Muir published
at Elvas Tower as basic for the cars and added vents to them. I also
altered the Trolleys of the cars No 22 and No 24. I thank Matt for the
permission to publish the Birneys.

The technical part -engine file, Tim Muir's cabview and sound - and the
Beta testing was done by my friend Paul Charland. Without his help the
release of the cars would not have been possible!

Thank you very much for your help Paul!

I am also thanking Tim Muir for providing the technical data of the
"Birneys" and the TSM-files together with Matt Austin. Their Original
Readme is included.

If you want to upload them elsewere or to repaint them feel free
to do this. Just credit the authors. The cars are freeware and may
not be sold or distributed for money.

The copyright of the original-files belong to Matt Austin and Tim Muir.

To run them in MSTS copy the inner CSR_Birneys-folder in the Trainset
folder of MSTS and create a consist.

My city had the world's southern-most Birneys. Unfortunately, we moved to the city a couple of years after the tram lines were removed. One car survived in a museum, but vandals burnt it.

Quick Fact: According to a book that I have, "The Toronto Civic Railways" 3 of Cornwall's Birneys came from Toronto. Cornwall's 16 (Formerly TCR 60/TTC 2216), 18 (TCR 67/TTC 2230), 20 (TCR 69/TTC 2234), came from Toronto in 1927. These were built in 1920 for the Toronto Civic Railways in the 60 to 84 group.

These were then forwarded to the Toronto Transportation Commission when it took over TCR operations and the Toronto Railway Company (whose 30-year franchise ended August 31st 1921) to operate under 1 unified system on September 1st 1921. All of the other Birneys in that group went to Halifax, Nova Scotia.
