Method for finding missing stock?

[Procopius]

I wish I was better at searching. I'm sure this question has been asked many times, and answered. Is there any method for finding the files for missing rolling stock? I've installed the Crawford Hills route, and the chp.xip Crawford Hills Pack of activities for it. Route Riter tells me I'm missing some stock that's required by four of the consists in the pack:

BNSF_Coal_Hopper\BNSF669141.wag
BNSF_Coal_Hopper\BN533781mty.wag

When I searched the library on the text, "BNSF Coal Hopper" it brought up six files, three of which were 5-bay coal hopper cars, but none of them have the right car numbers and they unzip into a folder other than BNSF_Coal_Hopper. I'm pretty sure somebody here at the trainsim forum will identify the needed file for me, but I was wondering if there's any other way? I've gotten better at locating files based on clued in the readme files, but this one has defeated me so far.

Use the command prompt:

Search for cmd.exe in the Search function (Bottom left in Windows 10). Open it.

Write;
cd \
Enter
Then you should see C:\>. Write:
dir BNSF669141.wag /s
Enter
Make yourself a cup of coffee and return to your computer. If it says File not found, try your other drives:

At C:\> write
d:
Enter
dir BNSF669141.wag /s (You can do this by using Arrow-up).
Wait and see what happens.

File not found.

Actually what I expected, but it was an excellent suggestion. I was thinking of using the "find" program in Cygwin, but there's a problem because it conflicts with the "find" function in -- what do we call it, DOS? Whatever. I was pretty sure the file was not installed. I was thinking about "grep," but I don't think it will find strings in zip files. It's possible I already have the zip file, but the name doesn't tell me what the contents are.
ETA: Surprise. WinRAR has a search function that will do that, but it takes time. http://www.fileseek.ca/Discussions/V...c-5d0713108877. I'm pretty sure I don't have the archive file downloaded from trainsim.

It is the 6th of six files that turns up when you search the F/L for “BNSF coal hopper“.

Good grief, it's right there in the first four words. I can't imagine how I missed seeing it. Thank you very much.

I Googled the file name that lead to another thread looking for the same car and they gave the file name you need to search for... and it's there.

MSTS BNSF Coal Hoppers Fix. Thanks to Bob Boudoin the physicis have been fixed even further. The .ace files have been fixed and another coal hopper added. Naming is all the same so just overwrite this folder to the one you may have already downloaded. Thanks also goes out to Train Artisan for original creators of hoppers. By Dale Miller.
