Have you the original GSC folder from the Great Northerner website. The repaint file does NOT contain all of the needed textures.

I quote from the ReadMe file:

This is a repaint of Michael Stephan (GreatNortherner)'s 53ft Flatcar and Bulkhead Flat found in the GSC-Flatcar-Pack, West available on his site
at:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1YepbOtUVb1E5EBabID9wZ5rOHzkR9EYd
You will need the original files to get this repaint to work as to save bandwidth the common texture files are not included.

If there is still a problem please let me know.

I think I may have found someting. I think that 2 of the amended .Geo files have been aliasing to a repaint that I have but you won't have. Please extract the file attached and then drill down to the GSC west Pack and drop the amended Geo files =in.
Please let me know result.
Apologies.

Thanks Buzz for helping to sort this.
For some reason, that I haven't got to the bottom of yet, the brakewheel, supports and bulkhead (all of which are common to all cars) was aliasing to a RI car that I haven't done yet. Anyway i've now sent the rabbit running the right way and removed the aliasing address by changing ri_ to cbq_ in the .Geo files.
I'll contact Chacal and we'll sort it for the library.
My apologies to all for the errors.

Edit:
Here's a patch with instructions
