RF&P Lightweight Passenger Cars

[harryadkins]

These models are Richmond, Fredericksburg, & Potomac Railroad repaints of the freeware G-TraX 4-Pack Lightweight Passenger Cars. The G-TraX pack is available in the Railworks America file library. They are appropriate for the Miami route in the 1970’s.

Run the RW_AssetSetup file to install the models. In the scenario editor, they are listed as: RFP_Ltwt_Coach01, RFP_Ltwt_Diner01, and RFP_Ltwt_Sleeper01. The models are installed into: Assets\G-TraX\Trains\RailVehicles\Passenger\RFP_Lightwt\.

These cars were purchased between 1946-1950 for east coast pool service with the PRR/RF&P/ACL/SAL/FEC railroads. During this time RF&P purchased 8 coaches, 1 diner, and 10 sleeping cars. They were used on name trains like the “Florida Special” and the “Silver Meteor.” Amtrak purchased all these cars.

This package is released as freeware. You can do whatever you wish with it EXCEPT make money with its use.
