The SD45X is at the Paintshop, The DD35 I put together in a couple hours. It still needs the dynamic brake wings, minor details tweaked eng. file & then It's off to the painter. In the Works - DD35A, DD40 -Yes, I have EMD SPEC PRINTS of the DD40 (never built), and a Ballwin Blue Goose Turbine.

Sign me up! I kit-bashed a couple of Athearn GP35 and the underframe of an Athearn DD40 about 20 years ago--still runs! This would be a sweet addition to my Train-Sim diesel house in any livery.Looking forward to it...Dave Peterson

I thought about what was said about the farting and fainting and I'm thinking what did I do - and it hits me nothing! I just threw the 3 locos together - but think about it - espee could have had this lashup. Fact is stranger then fiction.

I had been hoping someone would do a SD45X. You will note I included a V4.5 version for the SD45X in anticipation someone would make one (I could have been dropping a not so subtle hint as well..hehe). I will be looking forward to this release.
Thanks,
Bob

You really need to step back and take a deep breath. It has been posted many times about linking directly to copyrighted pictures. You have been told about this before, why do you not learn? And you have not YET given proper credit to the photographer.Kevin Arceneaux

If you look close - you will see ladders in back of the cab in the last three update pic's. Yes, when they are done, they will be posted at Train-Sim.com for download. Kinda my way of saying Thanks and giving something back.Kenya - Hang in there buddy. A contractor friend of mine once said "I want everybody to like me, but if they don't - F***em". Sometimes you just have to take that route. Oh - rest of the train questions, comments. Yes I would like to make this ( These engines )the best out there, but without help - I don't know. It will be what it will be. I know that once they are out, then the community will go to work improving them.

Yes, I need beta testers. The lights are not in the right place, and I know the engine physics are not right and no cab interior yet. So Beta testers that can do any or all of the above would be most welcome. Oh, The paint job is just mapped so the painter can do it right. I did that goffing off again.
