New Orleans Public Service Inc. Perley Thomas 800-899 class Streetcar.
NOPSI Car #836 and #970.

Included in this 2-car set are the #836 and #970. #836 is the source car for the entire series of the 800-899 class models, being that it is the car currently in the Connecticut Trolley Museum's collection which Phil Moberg has access to, allowing many of the fine details of the class to be captured.

Remember to have the contents of NOcommons.zip loaded into your Trainset folder to alias the cab and sounds.

Hello, Tim,

I can't seem to get your New Orleans 836-970 street cars to load. I get an "Error reading train database" message from the route editor when trying to make a consist. It always points to line 135 on the 7.2 wire cars, even if I take out some of the lines. Any idea what I'm missing? I'd sure like to try 'em!

Many Thanks,
62stratfan

Yep, I know what it is. You have to have MSTS Bin 1.6 installed. If you've installed Bin 1.6 in a mini-install such as L&PS, you must also install it in the MSTS default (root) folder as well. I had this same error until I had the latest bin installed in both. I now have it installed in my root MSTS and every mini-install I have.

Thanks, Tim. I'll give it a try and post again afterwards. I've just installed MSTSbin in the L&PS mini (which seems to be working great) but not the MSTS default.

That was it, Tim!! They are now working fine and they are terrific! I haven't been on a street car in decades (Boston), but these sure made me feel like I was home again.

Many Thanks, Tim

Ah, well done! I'm glad to hear the cars are bringing back fond memories for you. That's what they're there for ;)

Merry Christmas Steve!

Have a great holiday, everyone
