    Danny Beck's "BNSF Missing Files Set"

    Hi !
    I have a problem !
    Todays's new file : " Assorted Locomotive pack Volume 2 " requires BNSF SD70MAC 9985 from Danny Becks . I looked for this loc in the SEARCH FILE section . I found it in tne Danny Beck's "BNSF Missing Files Set" ( File ID 83520 ) but ... this file is no longer available.
    It is writen "This file is not currently part of our download collection, but is indexed for historical reference"

    Does anyboby know the reason for this removal and where most of all could I get this loc ?
    Thanks for your help
    Phil.

            As an aside, I wish people who reskin these old Danny Beck freeware models would just include the .s file in their uploads instead of making people hunt them down, rename them, uncompress them, etc. Just include his original ReadMe and it's fine to share the shape file with your repaint.

              I know I'm one of the people to include the shapes into their reskins, but it involves a shape file that's not freeware, I won't include it.

                I agree with including the freeware shapes vs. expecting people to go download a bunch of other files... that's how Bundles got started.
                If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

                      Maybe phigui's native language isn't English and he has a few problems with translation?

                        Thank you very much ! I now understand why this file has been removed ...
                        The solution was under my eyes but I stopped the careful reading at the first sentence "This file is not currently part of .... " !!

                          You're right !
                          I'm French so I read the minimum ( what seems the most important ) and then I try to tranlsate as best as I can ...

                            All the more reason to just include the original Danny Beck shape and ReadMe files.

                              For whatever reason, this file wasn't referencing its replacement. Now it does:
