Where to find SMV GP9

[ChandlerBranchRailfan]

The readme says it requires:
SMV CF7 1801 (from attherailyard.com)

Incorrectly identifying the locomotive aside, I'd like to ask the question, where can I find this?
I checked the site but can't seem to find the download page.

I am aware of substituting the SMV 70ton switchers in the library but I'd like to know where SMV 1801 can be found?

The heading states gp9
Your post references a cf7 and a ge 70 tonner

Do you need all of them?

No. I mean I need the SMV GP9 (which was incorrectly identified as a CF7 by the activity readme).
I was saying I am aware that substituting is another option and there are two other SMVR units in the library which are 70 tonners.

I have this engine in my archive. It is based on one of the 3Dtrains GP9 betas. No idea where I downloaded from, but definitely not from attherailyard. If nobody objects I could upload it here.

No one will object in fact we encourage it.

You're neither Melanie Nelson nor the author of the paint, so your objection or lack thereof isn't really what was being solicited, and your "no one will object in fact we encourage it" statement is awful presumptive. 🤔

If we are talking about payware content no one on this site should be encouraging it to be uploaded. If there's a possibly of it being uploaded then that will be between baldwin, Eric (and based on Erich's comment) Melanie to decide.

As I recall that beta engine was a free download, but it is best that the powers to be agreed on a repaint being uploaded first.

Edit - A quick search reveals a fair number of reskins of that beta GP9 are in the library already. Just be sure that there are all the proper approvals and credits included.

This is the readme from the SMV GP9 :

[ChandlerBranchRailfan]

"Further reskins of this engine may only be released with permission from 3DTrains."
But is this a "further reskin" also it is from a demised site.

[baldwin]

I have messaged the person who did the SMV reskin. If he is OK with it, I will then ask Melanie.

I would message Eric about that, he has been okay with uploading from defunct sites, with the understanding that if requested they would be removed. He's the one to answer that for you.

Get permission.

3DTrains website might be gone, but Bananarama is still very much part of the community.
