This model is a Merchants Despatch Transportation Company (MDT – NYC) reskin of the payware 40ft Steel Reefer from the RWA Lakeside Route. This route can be purchased at http://www.railworksamerica.com and is well worth the cost.
1-Unzip and run the "RW_AssetSetup.exe" file to install the reskin.
2-Copy all the GEOPCX files from Assets\RWA\Lakeside\RailVehicles\Freight\ Reefer40ft\Default
3-Paste them into Assets\RWA\Lakeside\RailVehicles\ Freight\Reefer40ft\MDT.
4-In the scenario editor the model will be listed as “RWA Reefer MDT open (or closed).”
I did this reskin to use on the PRR Horseshoe Curve route. Refrigerated traffic consisted of fruits, vegetables, and meats. Most manifest freights featured blocks of reefers.
This package is released as freeware. You can do whatever you wish with it EXCEPT make money with its use.
