Greg,
One of the required downloads for your grand activity was "hoboview." I presume this is a key-5 view from an open boxcar, right? I didn't see any opportunities to use this view - the player train has no boxcars, or did I miss something? Where is it used in the Widowmaker activity?Thanks,MC

The open car door model was chosen primarily as "color." The 5 key view is actually set up for the caboose which gives a greater field of vision. If you like the idea of the boxcar view, you could disable the boxcar view and impliment the "hoboview." I'm going to try it one of these days just to see how it looks.Best wishes,
Yardlimit

I must have been daydreaming when I replied to this because of course,
you'd have to use this view in another application. The whole focus in the choice of rolling stock was its appropriateness to the period.
