This model is a Columbia Valley Pacific 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.
Run the "RW_AssetSetup.exe" file to install the reskin. Copy all the GEOPCX files from Assets\RWA\Lakeside\RailVehicles\Freight\ Reefer40ft\Default and paste them into Assets\RWA\Lakeside\RailVehicles\ Freight\Reefer40ft\CVP. In the scenario editor the model will be listed as “RWA Reefer CVP open (or closed).”
The Columbia Valley Pacific is one of my favorite routes. I operate the route in the 1949 era so I can run steam locomotives. The connecting Great Northern and Canadian Pacific have already made the transition to diesel locomotives on most passenger trains, but the CVP doesn’t have their cash flow. The CVP route is freeware and available in the Railworks America library.
This package is released as freeware. You can do whatever you wish with it EXCEPT make money with its use.
