Thanks, I appreciate the kind words.
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well.

I noticed I forgot to add the alpha channel correctly to the RBOX car show above, I'll have to fix that and through up the new updated download if I am able to, otherwise I can put the updated texture file in my next add on pack.

OhMyGosh, Shawn!! I look at this work and drool all over my keyboard. What can I say but WOW! I know there are a lot of people here that like clean, pristine rolling stock, but I watch real life videos from Jaw Tooth, Wide World of Trains, 7Idea Productions, and so on and what I see are 90+% of cars are marked with graffiti. Your work is really needed - and greatly appreciated. These cars will look great behind nearly any modern power around.

Thank you, Shawn, for your incrdible generosity in sharing your talents with the rest of us. It's gentlemen like you who are keeping this hobby alive!

My next project. Need to tweak the sides a bit more and finish up the roof and ends. Probably will toss in a three pack and maybe a couple of single wells.

[CSRX]

Finished off the set, now its time to wrap it up with the readme file and what not.. Comes with a 5 pack, a 3 pack, and two singles. (The two singles are new reskin textures as well).

Thanks Shawn. Really appreciate you sharing these!

Using some of the empty wells from Peter, I've added some more to the Maersk collection. Probably do one more set of double stacks, and then maybe attempt a few single stacks, and that should wrap up the Maersk set that I wish to do.

That's a nice looking set you're putting together there Shawn. Looking forward to it.

Thanks Pete!
I started on making a pair of three packs with single stacks, but it needs some major tweaking to get it just right with the textures. I don't think David's container sets were really meant for single stack, or I snagged the wrong shapes to do so.

The other three pack I did, with 20 footers. I may just call it a day with this set rather than fiddle with getting the single stack 40 footers and 20 footers to look right.. Mainly because too, we don't often have Maersk as single stacks anyways as at the moment at work, they aren't so common, but it sounds like come February of 2025, it will pick up massively with "Gemini".

What you have there will certainly keep me happy mate, but if you're looking for a single 40 ft well shape, I know that ocean sets 18 & 20 both have them. 👍

Is there a pack that has single stack 20 footers as well? I'll check out pack 18 and 20, see what I can come up with.

Edit: Nevermind, found the single stack 20 footers in Ocean Set #22

Thanks Shawn!! Good stuff as always

[phydeaux]

Dang, Shawn, ya did it again!! Fantastic work, my friend, and thank you ever so much!

[CSRX]

Thanks gentlemen! I can't take all the credit, Peter provided some excellent empty well cars that I was able to add loads into.

I did notice I made a goof on a set and didn't correct it before uploading.

The BNSF three pack need to be renamed. 1A needs to be changed to 3A and 3B needs to be changed to 1B. Simple fix in the name, that's it.

I just downloaded the set and it looks fantastic Shawn. I've had a Maersk set on my "to-do" list for ever. Thanks heaps for saving me a job! 👍👍
