These are re-paints of Sean Lim's Pennsy AAR steel boxcars, with his endorsement. The open car has "Hobo-Cam", where with the 5-key you get "In your face" railroading, from a freight-catcher's view. Good place to watch the scenery roll by, and watch the train sweeping through curves. All that's missing is the wind in your face, the smell of coal smoke (or ozone in the case of the Milwaukee boxcabs on the point in the picture), and the rockin-rollin tactile sensations of really "catching on".

Thanks, Andre! I appreciate your comments. I just uploaded the cars after fixing one little texture thingy as per Sean's request. Look for : mlw2xmss.zip in a day or so.Have fun hoppin' that freight, but be careful!( don't try this in real life. It is extremely dangerous, and the hazards are all around you. Oh, yah, and it is illegal, too. ) There I said it.Timtimmuir@wcn.net
