Take a look at MLW's home page and notice the banner ...
https://www.searchlight-simulations.com
Is this a soon to be revealed new locomotive, cooperative effort between these developers? Is is for TS17 or TSW?

That locomotive looks remarkably like the TSW locomotives, down to the glandhands. I wonder if the two are related by builder ...
No doubt the experts from RR-Mods have the necessary expertise and since UE4 is listed on their homepage ...

:P I've been spoiled.

Geeeeeep, well done everyone, I've wanted a GP40 for ages, I hope we could possibly have the other missing GP models as well in the future, GP18, 28, 39, 59 & GP60, that'd be wonderful. !!*ok*!! !*salute*!

I've personally been pulling for ARR GP40-2s and GP49s for the ARR route.

Well at one point there was a great GP40/-2 available by VRC. They also had a limited release GP59. We also have some pretty good GP50s available.

Yeah, I think I have everything else that has become available over the years, from the GP7, 9,15, right up to the GP60 from Ian (Eyein12), anything we haven't yet got would be extremely welcome.... !!*ok*!!

I'm really glad someone is stepping up to fill the hole after VRC pulled their stuff. And I'm really hoping RRMods gradually ports over their whole catalog to Railworks. They have so many lovely road switchers that I would gladly give them money for. Definitely going to be grabbing this one as soon as I can.

Shoot, I'd prefer to have one of those C44-9WL in BCOL colors.

Amen to that. I’d be ecstatic if any of their Canadian Dash 9’s found their way into Train Simulator.
