I feel like the pre-dash 2 EMDs are reasonable timeframe wise, as the GP38 entered production in 1966, and GP40 in 1965, so only ~10 years off the GP9. Dash 2s would be too late for me, given that line started production in 1972. I would prefer to stick to transition era stuff but I feel the GP38 and 40 are reasonable as endgame engines. Plus, it's a mod so no harm done to vanilla

[@masonhoven8588]

Also they have the anti climb device on the front which they would have never had in 1966

[@157RANDOM]

@masonhoven8588 good spot. I didn't notice that at first. Then again it isn't surprising that most resources for modeling a GP38 would include that since later ones are more likely to be around.

[@masonhoven8588]

@@157RANDOM thanks! most un rebuild or non modified gp38s gp40s and sd40s don't have anti climb on them still

Can’t wait for the skins one pack had released but waiting for the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific

[@THE_IRON_HORSE]

It is cool seeing something a little more newer and modern in this game, I really do like the older stuff to but you cant really go wrong with these at all

[@TheBeeMan1994]

I see a few comments about the era! I know, it was just an easy motor to add in as the mesh was cheap. It was a passion project and just to see “maybe I can make this game a little more fun?”

[@TheBeeMan1994]

Oh to add, air hose detail will come a little later. I’m still working on small detail parts, but I wanted to get these out and see what feedback I could get back about them. Let me know what you want fixed, added or changed!

[@aquaspire7671]

Thanks to you and all the other members for this!

[@kleetus92]

Fantastic work!

[@schnauzahpowahz]

@@TheBeeMan1994 its a fantastic engine/mod - first big one for RRer coming outta the gates w a bang. If someone wanted to be more era prototypical they could just not have the ctc signals and make it dark territory. Dont let naysayers ruffle feathers... youre on to somthing 👊

[@wesw9586]

This mod looks and sounds fantastic! I can't wait to fiddle around with driving from the cab. Thanks for the great work.

Biggest Diesel units that ever ran on the Murphy Branch were in 1988-to-1993 by NS GE C40-8W better known as the Dash8. Southern used every kind of GP unit as well as SD40-2 to SD45 units on Branch line as that was the Biggest for them. No F units were ever Recorded on the Murphy Line.

[@kingofnothing8668]

Believe it or not, towards the end of NS operations, there was a few ES44ACs and SD70Ms that made their way from Asheville to Canton. But as far as West of Canton, towards Sylva, there was a 4-axle restriction on power (which still stands today). 38s all the way up to 60s were used out west.

[@AustinTrainsOfficial]

I am loving these so far and can't wait to see what other motive power mods will be coming soon. I wonder if anyone has ever considered making some Budd RDCs? That would be super neat for smaller distance passenger operations!

[@trainman1ish]

What a differrence compared to the locos in the new scenario pack for the Feather River Canyon you showed recently. Ok, in the pack are no GP38, but still, the locos for railroader look much better...👍

[@ConductorGoldy]

Being someone who thinks the transition era is overdone and lame (Although I still love this game), I am super happy to see this. Especially with how well it is done. Would love to see something with dynamic breaks as well. GP30, 35, 40, etc would be excellent additions to the game in my opinion.

[@robkiger3434]

Does anyone actually use railloader? I'm trying to download some mods and the ones I want to use requires railloader.

[@wesw9586]

Lots of people do. Any track mod requires it.

[@MrJMS814]

These sound pretty good. Maybe the best blower geep sound I've heard in a game. A step in the right direction for sure. Still a little bit lacking for exhaust sound. Train games always have that typical no exhaust, all blower sound, even hovering the camera right over the exhaust. The throttle transitions seem pretty good at least as you'd hear them muffled from in the cab. But I want more chuggage! I wanna hear the chuggage from those exhaust pipes! Especially when you first hit the gas. Thats the whole point of trains, isnt it? lol But this is absolutely a step or two up from the vanilla sounds in this game. Also, where the hell is the jointed rail? That clickity clack! Why aren't the trains rocking back and forth violently at 12mph? They're just floating along like a spaceship! And the entire ground is covered in perfectly brand new brown mulch??? And I totally agree about GP38s being the end of the line. I don't care about the turbo geeps. They're too new and don't sound as good lol

[@TheBeeMan1994]

If you would like to get me some audio recordings from the exhaust, I will add them.

[@bearfoxtrot_101]

Sup Sean?! You're gonna have to install that sounds folder with Unity Mod Manager. That folder isn't just sounds but it's also the script.

[@schnauzahpowahz]

Yer i diddat. Does your ammeter work?

I'd love to see a mod install tutorial from you!

[@ericblaise1073]

Can u do a video on how to install the mods not sure where to put them and dont want to mess up my game that i have going thanks

[@houstonwalker7108]

I’d love a video about how to install this mod, I downloaded it and the unity mod manager but when I go to install the mod it only installed the sound pack no model or the GP38 or any and I can’t figure out how to install the whole mod

[@xray606]

Looks good. I guess only a non DB version for now?

[@sakeeler]

I can not get this mod to work. What am I doing wrong? It only shows a mod for GP38 Sound Mod. I can't get the locos.

[@theinternexperience890]

would love a gp30

[@simontrainbrainz6038]

I tried to download the GP38, but for some reason it wouldn’t work. I place both files in as instructed, but nothing happened. Has this happened to anyone else?

[@Lightwolf333]

I think you need to have a program called Unity Editor I believe.

[@simontrainbrainz6038]

Ok! I figured it out now

Meh, so much for transition era. Should have been an alco or something truly transition , not a garbage EMD

[@ktydeck]

ALCO would have been fun.

[@barrel6468]

I like that it’s something a little more modern. It adds versatility to the time periods you could imagine your railroad being set in. Some short line railroads operated steam up to the late 60s, which happens to be around the same time the GP-38 was developed, so it isn’t completely implausible to have been able to see a GP-38 and a 2-8-0 running together, for example.

[@Goldeneye48]

@@ktydeckAgree. The Alco Centuries and MLW M420s would have been nice. Also the Baldwins would have been very unique to add to this game.

[@PowerTrain611]

There is an RS-3 in the works...

[@Secondary_Mango]

Its a mod, dont download it then.
