Michael, if you would, I would ask you to think about some center beam cars, hopefully the opera window style, with various loads, including some partially full loads. They sure would look good on the new Marias Pass thats soon to be released.

What does a center beam car look like, I plan on learning how get a train car into the sim so I can later have better luck at getting a locomotive into the sim, so I might give a center beam car a try if possible.

That's "opera", as in classical music + serious singing + ballet (sometimes), etc. ... not "Opra", as in gushiness on TV.

Center Beam cars have been available from RSC for some time, included in various DLC packs, for example, the SD75 Pack 01 included several with loaded and unloaded versions, but there's never been a loader for them and. If you want to search for them in your RS installation, you have to remember that they were made by Brits and are thus called "centrebeam". None of them have any kind of windows, much less oval ones, but I seem to recall a thread here at RWA by someone who was thinking of making some (as my mother used to say, "If wishes were fishes, we'd all have a fry").

Thanks for the correction! however, since we're getting that way, it's "technical", not "techincal" ... what a hoot!

Bet we could go on like this for months!!!
