Phase 3 SLI Superliners

[duke1234]

Can someone jog my memory here,

Did SLI ever make a full set of Superliners in PHIII? I looked through my Seligman install and only found a coach and coach/baggage in PHIII the rest being PHIV. I cant seem to find any reskins of the streamlines superliners into PHIII on PHIV. I Could have sworn there used to be a complete set of them but cant seem to find them anywhere now,

I'm no expert on the various Amtrak schemes so I may well be wrong, but I thought the Southwest Chief set was in Phase 3?

Edit.... I just read the "fine print". It's Phase 3.

Edit x2.... It's in the archived products section of the TS website.

Look a little closer at that image, the P40s, MHC and Baggages are 3, but the superliners are IV. It tricked me too.

There is a Southwest Chief in the ATSF Seligman v2. That's all Phase III. They had F40PH's.

There is a Phase III set somewhere in the File Library IIRC.

Found it. It's amtk_iii.zip

Again, I'm no expert on Amtrak schemes but I think the original SLI set is Phase 3?

Maybe one of the TS guys or someone that has the TS Amtrak Trainsets Vol 1 can jump in. The archived version appears to be made up of a couple of the old SLI sets. Maybe the screenies are a mix of the various rolling stock and the Phase 3 cars are still in there? I'm just guessing....

Orbita's right though. I just put "phase 3" into the search box and I got a couple of hits you might be interested in.

Edit: Lucky I stick to freight cars. I just decided to learn about the various Amtrak phases and have now worked out the differences between 1, 2 & 3. Hopefully what's in the file library is what you are after.

15 Superliner 2 Phase 5


Superliner trainsets in ORTS Seligman and Scenic Starter Route are all reused numbers from the original MSTS version of the routes and are counted in the SLI portion of the count.
Many of the Phase 2 and Phase 3 Superliner 1 totals were assembled from smaller train packs released back in the day and not from routes.

Update:

I found it! Its in there archived products.

The BNSF Seligman comes with Phase 4 superliners, and a few scattered phase 3 superliners as a bonus. The cars I was referring too are in the ATSF Seligman Route which represents the 90s. The full phase 3 set is available there. I'll give them a buy and reskin the lounge to fix the incorrect striping.
