Are you running the engine in MSTS or OR? I think wag14.smsmakes it an OR only engine.

The car name is what I was asking about. The sound file you are referring to is for OR. I'm not sure what it pointing at as I have this in Scott Brunner's L&HR Mountains, it's a general freight sound used by the tender. I've not located an sms sound file by the same name anywhere. I have also received the same error when running the OR engine in MSTS.

correct... one of the 3 files involved in the K37+Crew+Tender are the cause, and i had no idea it was a sound file thats ---missing, or needs to be taken out?

OK... make a back up copy of the wag file and give this a try... if iy fails you can always go back to the backup.

In the wag file replace the existing sound line to with the "14" to

Sound ( "genfreightwag1.sms" )

I have this line in my CV 2-10-4s and have had no trouble. I would imagine the "14" is there and has to do with not needing MSTS on you system.

Paul :-)
