Okay, I give up. What's the deal with the F7 Hotrod in the opening movie and in the engines file?

RE: F7 Hotrod

Why not?Not prototypical by any stretch, but hot rodding, and railroads cross paths a lot more often than you would think, especially with GM involved.Most streamlined steam locomotives could be classified as "customs" in the hot rod sense. Where else would you get the idea of adding 20 tons of sheet metal to create a lower, faster look? I wouldn't doubt that a great deal of body lead is layed in there somewhere.A great many streamlined classics from railroading were originally constructed using chopping and channeling techniques perfected in hot rod shops. Take the beaver tailed Hiawathas, for instance, especially the finned ones.Probably the ultimate collision of the two fields has to be GM's 1955 Aerotrain. Chop and channel some buses and a 55 Chevy. Add a ton of horsepower and Voila! The car of the Century!If it has wheels and enough space for a flame job, eventually someone will go for it.Frank MusickMoving America into the 19th Century!

RE: F7 Hotrod

You can get it on the DLS, but you do need to search and get the update for it at trainz.luvr.net (because the original hotrod is pre-Sp3 content)-Stetson

RE: F7 Hotrod

Edit: I CAN register for it, but when I try to log in it won't let me in. And just a question, why does it say, "Brew Crew" on the numberplates? If everything fails, could you just send me the files?
I don't know if this matters, but I have Trainz: The Ultimate Collection, not TRS2004. Maybe that has an effect on it.

RE: F7 Hotrod

I know, but that's only the fix for it at trainz.luvr.net. I need the original model, not just the fix. And for the last time, could someone just send me the files instead?P.S. Cyclone1234, thanks for the info on the brew crew. Also in Trainz Paint Shed, there's a graffiti logo that says "Brew Crew" on it.
