RE: Any Suggestions??

A simple passenger view can be accomplished, however one that rivals the TA passenger sets will not be forth coming only because I am not that artistic....I can attempt to get the current passenger cars into ATSF livery and place a view within one of them....which cars in the file library would be suitable for you? If none then I will make some.....Rick

RE: Any Suggestions??

there are some nice ones in there Pennsylvania Heavyweight Cars there would be good I cant think of the file name but they are come well designed cars but have no see thru windows there just painted on i am not two picky about the inside view as I mainly just use it as a differant view just to look out the windows that is. TA has a stream lined set for the Super Chief but I am not sure the older Chief used stream lined cars or if they were Heavyweight pullmansDon Pottorff

RE: Any Suggestions??

Hey Rick, My only last want for MSTS 1 would be a Alco C855 or a Baldwin Sharknose BF-16 or BF-20. Those are about the last 2 common diesels we don't have for the sim. Or you can just take a break for the summer and fall and pick back up when Ver.2 comes out. Will stay in contact either way, Jim
