Post your pics of any passenger trains in Push mode!Here's mine. Fictional lashup as Amtrak never had any Horizon Cab-Cars. I'm working on these. Need to finish some things and ask for permission and they'll eventually be uploaded. Passenger Train Pushing! – image 2 Look! Metro-North Amtrak! Need to fix that... and the Alpha channels.

Are you gonna make Ph-IV and PH-V Amtrak cars too and upload them to the library?
I want to make my Amtrak train sets as realistic as possible.
Anyway you say Amtrak never used these cars. I don't know if the ones pictured on the Amtrak Screenshot thread at http://www.train-sim.com/cgi/dcforum/dcboard.cgi?az=show_thread&om=2182&forum=DCForumID15&viewmode=all show those type of cars or not but they're very similar in style. I suggest you use those photos as reference.I also suggest that you need to put some more grey on those cars to make them look more like the real ones. Also take a good look at the windows at the Screenshot thread, notice that the end windows are smaller in length. After you made those corrections those train sets would be so realistic that you wouldn't need to call them fictional. Good luck on getting them together.

RE: Passenger Train Pushing!!

Actually, they are the same coach cars. What I meant was Amtrak never had any Horizon cab cars.I will make the neccesary changes to the end windows, thanks for pointing them out. I do not have any close-up side photos of a Horizon car in Amtrak livery so I am rather shooting in the dark.The grey will come along after the colours on the sides are correct. The red is a bit too dark, as is the blue, I think.I'll get it eventually... Tim Frost
