Great to see some new American rolling-stock in the F/L!

You're welcome Curt, thanks! I've run out of time pre-Christmas but I have more stuff I'll try to get uploaded in Jan.

Can't wait to see them! Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas.

You're welcome Tim! And Curt, next up some hopper sets. Some mixed "rusty/beaten up" packs and what I call my "Iowa" hoppers... a set with Iowa company names that I use to give Clinton sub a little "local" content.

Peter,
I will have some tracks for these cars when you are done ?

Geez, you're really digging into these repaints. But you're doing a good job of it, keep it up!

I believe in another life, Pete was a US railroad carman, or something of that nature
Way to go, mate!

[conductorchris]

really nice job!

Thank you guys... and Neil, after the last 6-7 weeks, I'm ready for a career change in this life .

As far as the hoppers go, I still need to write MT & LD versions for each (I tend to only use one or the other for my covered wagons) and then get them all to Gerry for include files. Hopefully they'll start appearing in the F/L early in the new year.

While I'm previewing the "post-Christmas sales", something else that's just been added to the future releases list is a re-do of Ted's bulkhead flat car. Some of you might recall a screenshot I posted a while back where I'd increased the texture size and added FF-Hardware via a FA to get a model I'd always loved looking a bit sharper for ORTS. At some point after that, the unstoppable force of nature that is P. Tyler Bundy got involved and created a new FA with FF-Hardware, updated couplers and new loads. There are ten cars in the set, and each will come in 3 versions... MT, a reskin of Ted's original covered load and a new load version courtesy of Tyler's FA.

Pics 1 is the new load FA's and pic 2 is the reskins of the original covered load. I wasn't crazy about a couple of the high covered load textures I had, so if anyone has photos of some better options, please drop me a line.





Merry Christmas all!
