CSX YN3 Ex Cr Dash-8 CW Uploaded – image 1

LAST EDITED ON Jan-02-04 AT 08:40 PM (EST)

Thanks to Chuck and everyone at NALW for permission to upload this latest repaint. Nalw's Dash-8 is a super model, which I use often. This particular unit uses the night cab. Credit is deserved by the original creators of the model and shapefile, as well as Sam Spade for an awesome cab. I only repainted the model and darkened the cabview. Unzip to "C:\" only, and "use folders" or "use paths".
You MUST have NALW's GE Megapak to use this engine...
File name is CSX_7322.zip
Kyle
P.S. The screenshot of the cab is an old one, and the horn buttons etc are darkened to match.

If you don't already have a YN2 version called CSX_7327, then you are missing a file that I left out. I uploaded a Fix, and a seperate replacement full version to Nels, but in the mean time, if you need just the fix, it's here
<http://webpages.charter.net/kylehendrix/CSX_7322fix.zip>
I'm sorry that neither me nor my beta tester caught it, since we both have CSX_7327 on our machines and the file in question is a "common" file.Kyle

RE: CSX YN3 Ex Cr Dash-8 CW Uploaded

Is it possible to get an engine for this where there are no flashing ditch lights and the light count is alot lower than 39.Any help would be appreciated.Maybe if someone could tell me what lines I need to delete to keep the lights from flashing and to cut back on the total number of lights would be helpful also.

Claude, I don't know if you noticed, but if you turn the lights to Full (bright), the ditchlights burn constant.
Later, Kyle

LoL..
If I had any sort of talent i might..
My post wasn't written very well, it came out unnecessarily harsh... Sorry about that. Besides, the night cab is perfectly suitable for e.g. ATSF or CNW Dash 9s.. Or most (all?) non-Conrail widecab Dash-8s

>(Conrail cab is fourth from the top) Not true. only the later units had IFC screens. The earlier 6000 and 6100 series lacked the screens and had a desktop like that. CSXT 7322 would be CR 6107
