Tim Muir's NP #1440 33ft Caboose .... here in library. The passenger view does not work in OR. A couple of us have tried it and no go. The 5 camera works with other equipment, but OR seems to have trouble with this one.

Hi Gerald,

Is there another car (or loco) in your train with a passenger view ahead of NP 1440? If there is, it (they) will be displayed first. Just cycle through (keep hitting the 5 key) until the caboose interior displays. It works on my machine (I tested two of the 7 different view wags):

That's a very homely looking interior, Tim. Especially that first shot you took. If one weren't to mention it's from inside a caboose, that shot would have me thinking it's from someone's house. :sign_thanks:

Maybe that's why some roads called them house cars.

Yes, my test consist was with a BLW/ZT GP7, CR5603 and the (very fine!) caboose. The 5 view works for the engine but will not display the caboose. Also works with 5 BLW engines in a consist. 5 key cycles through all the engines as it should. Never had a problem with the passenger view cycling before.
I'm going to try some other wag files with a passenger view - put them in a consist with the caboose. Very possible I could have messed the file up...do not see how, but it's happened before.

Thanks for the reply and the excellent caboose, just outstanding, really! Will post later.

I am getting similar results. I am getting internal views of the engines up front but not the caboose.

Delete the offending parentheses:

Thank you, Ramon. I don't know why the uploaded wag files have that offending parenthesis, my own personal wags for 1440 do not. I am attaching a zip with copies of my personal wags for each of the 7 different views, without that extra parenthesis. My apologies to all users.

Also, thanks Ed and Gerald for the compliments. It was fun going all out creating the "home on wheels". Now if only we can make it virtual, like the new 3D cab environments for locos...

Oh, please report whether or not this cures the problem...thanks.

Thanks Tim. Works like a charm.

By the way the interiors truly are beautiful.

Tim,

Perhaps you should replace the WAGs in the download with these new ones.
