SP and DRGW Krauss Maffei Models

[southern455]

A long while ago David Rowe created models for both the SP and Rio Grande ML-4000 Diesel Hydraulics and released them on the now long gone Sacramento Locomotive
Works site. I just discovered that while I have both the SP and Rio Grande texture files, I don't have the SP shape or engine files to go with them (the SP noses are shaped quite differently than the RG). Anyway, if you're out there David (or anyone that may have these models) I'd greatly appreciate the SP shape files.

Thanks for listening,
Bob Groh

Uh-oh, the model was originally distribution-restricted, according to its README.

"This model is for download only at Sacramento Locomotive Works, unless otherwise authorized by SLW and
David Rowe."

... and you can't access the Sacramento Locomotive Works website captures on the Wayback Machine!!

Have you checked the ET site? Perhaps the SLW content was absorbed into ET.

Check out page 2 post# 11 of this old 2019 thread from ET. At that time David Rowe gave permission to share

I don't think the ET site is up any longer.

Elvas Tower is up and going strong.

Hi All,
I have checked all through the ET library and cannot find that loco. That's not to say it's not there, just that I've not been able to find it!!

Cheers,

I have sent a PM to user ROWIE asking permission to upload here at ET. The readme clearly states that the sole source is/was SacramentoLocomotiveWorks.com.

I believe his visits to ET are infrequent, so only time will tell.

Hey Guys,
Long time no see I have answered a message from Craig, but just wanted to say I have no problems with anyone doing whatever they like with the files. There is also a cab for the KMs at trainsim.com. kmrecab.zip is the file name. I'll also find the TSM source files and upload them. Maybe someone can rework the models. I will also find the SP GE 70 tonners that were at SLW and upload them as well. Need to do some deep digging on a portable drive to find everything
[/quote] **NOTE: kmrecab.zip is File ID 68672

I have the models but I cannot find the original downloads...have to check on my storage drives. I have the SP and RG in one folder with a new readme, I don't recall how this was all put together, and there's no files at Elvas that I can find.

OK..... I have the files. From what is stated above, it would be OK to email southern 455 the files?

[R. Steele]

I don't control your emails, that's entirely your decision.

As far as someone providing them for uploading to the TS library, that would probably be okay, However, Eric has the final word over that.

[southern455]

Thank you all, and especially burgerbern, for finding and uploading these files. I am very grateful.
Sincerely,
Bob Groh
