    BNSF ES44C4 Renumbers

    As promised.

    A set of BNSF ES44C4s renumbers, which was based my older set that used the CP GEVO, is in the works to be released soon. However, THESE units will be using the locomotive shapes form the Mullan Subdivision Expansion pack.

    The locomotives will be two 10-locomotive sets (for a total of 20).

    A few sample photos of the locomotives shown...

    Good to see someone taking advantage of the Mullan C4 model, it's a much better starting point than what previous C4 reskins have used considering it actually has the right bogie 3D model!

      Looking forward to your set! Maybe for your next project, You should do a set of C44-9W H3 renumbers from Seligman!

          Those will be put to good use in my fleet. But what I'd like to see is some BNSF warbonnet C44's I know those are still floating around.

            Say no more. The ATSF Dash 9 SuperFleets will probably be coming soon as part of my locomotive projects, as well as the BNSF versions.

              More ES44C4's are always nice. I wanted to do some more myself, but I honestly prefer the C44-9W's and ES44AC's over anything else. haha.

                Don't give me any ideas on the AC Units! I'm thinking about doing a set of renumbers as well! 🤔

                    Suggestion, 4200 series ES44C4s and H3 SD40-2s on the Scenic V2 model.

                      Hi everyone. I downloaded the two ES44C4 packs from Donald "dnewmanjr". When creating and editing the .s files for the 8000 and the 8058 and then viewing them in the ShapeViewer, I get the following error: "Error 9 - Subscript out of range." All other locomotives work.
                      Who else has this and how do I get the two locomotives to work?
                      I used all three .s files suggested by Donald.​
                      I hope, the Community can understand my posts.

                        And here is the solution. I have open and resave the four .dds-Files for the 8000 and the 8054 in Paint-Net. Now the engines works fine.

                          For a moment, I thought I was going to have to do a patch to both of the sets. I'm glad you have them working.

                            Similar to this?

                              Nailed it. I just saw one not too long ago it was badly faded but pulling the tonnage. I look forward to these. Thanks for your hard work.
