FED EX ready to do business with this fleet at its helm. Also did UPS and that fleet is already at the UPS distr center in tukwila WA. Looks great in the game. I will be putting this one in tonight. DHL is last on the list. then I plan to do some tractor trailers. anyone have any pics of trailers they want to see send them my way. side views would be great, along with back and front. dont worry about top and bottom. i have plenty to work with for now.

Eeyein, will it be possible to use your trailers as cargo on piggy-back flatcars?

You can put anything on flat cars. I had a Class 37 riding on a flatcar once. ;)

Eye, if you need a 53' trailer to paint, there is "development kit" on my website. Or, you could do repaints of the truck and trailer that come with the AND route.

Just FYI, DHL pulled out of the US a year or so ago. I thought UPS had an issue with their logo being used without paying? Or is that just if you charge for the vehicle?

im doing things differently with this route. the whole thing might be freeware, including the assets. i dont plan on buying up anymore licenses for now, and alot of companies gave me permission for the soo, and for this which was nice. So for now I can do whatever I want:). ive yet to converse with UPS

I would hope that people would still like to donate if this route was freely available including the new assets:

heres how the system wou work. same donation place of operation paypal. portions go to THON charity

those who donate a certain amt based on a tier system will get 10 standard scenarios for the route. A two tier system if you will. The lower tier payor gets the standard scenarios, the upper tier gets the scenarios and "seattle-at night" enhancement as well as kingst station in its entirety. not sure what the minimums will be yet. probably around the same as before.

If people show their support I will continue the expansion of this project. If it flops then well i'll just keep it to myself then;)

let me know what you think!

Ian

I've supported your fine work before, Ian, and will continue to do so. The donation system seems fine to me. Works for Hawk, works on my website as well. !!*ok*!!

Wow, those are some old big rigs! Drove one of those Kenworths for 6 months.

I drove a "Freightshaker" FLD for about 6 months too... pays fair, and not a bad job.
