Royal American Shows Train

[harryadkins]

The Royal American Shows Circus Train is a series of repaints of Dick Cowan’s payware Heavyweight Passenger Cars and Michael Stephan’s freeware Early TOFC Packs. You can purchase the Britkits models here: http://www.dickyjim.com/rolling_stock.html. The TOFC packages are available here: http://www.stephan-michael.de/railsim/p ... /tofc.html.

Run the RW_AssetSetup file to install the models. The heavyweight models are installed into: Assets\Britkits\RollingStock\RailVehicles\Passenger\01-HW-coaches\RAS\Wagon\. The models are named: 01-hw-bg RAS, 01-hw-ce RAS, 01-hw-ch RAS, 01-hw-dn RAS, and 01-hw-ob RAS. Copy all the GEOPCX files from Assets\Britkits\RollingStock\RailVehicles\ Passenger\01-HW-coaches\Default\Wagon and paste them into Assets\Britkits\ RollingStock\RailVehicles\Passenger\01-HW-coaches\RAS\Wagon.

The auto numbering system is setup to do everything except assign a drum-head to the observation car. While in the Scenario Editor, select the observation car and edit its number to look like this: xxxxxxbbax66x. The “bb” assigns a square RAS drum-head.

The Early TOFC model is installed here: Assets\GreatNortherner\TOFC\50ft_RASX\Wagon\. It is named “TOFC 50ft RASX”. There’s no need to copy and paste GEOPCX files for the TOFC flats.

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