!!*ok*!!


That almost completes my WP collection! Was sorely missing the Geep for modern scenarios.

The GP40-2 is a DTG release with locomotive development support from Reppo and scenario support from High Iron Simulations.

Reppo working on the GP40-2, thats awesome! !!*ok*!! !!*ok*!!

Granted I have both VRC and RRMods versions as well, a 3rd version sure ain't gonna hurt anything knowing Reppo's quality!

!*YAAA*! At long last, another multi-road pack! We haven't seen the likes of this from DTG since the GP9 and SW1500. I do find it kind of funny that we're now up to four different developers putting out a GP40. But at least the WP and DRGW liveries haven't been done before as far as I know, plus being able to use them in workshop scenarios is a huge bonus.

You see that?! You see that *beep* right there?! That the stuff DTG should be doing! PACK release not solo DLC! I'm so happy NS is apart of the pack! I'm willing to pay 20 for a PACK! !*YAAA*!

Well done, DTG. Bringing something valuable to a great number of players. Will be a first day purchase from me, the first is a very long time.

Glad to hear these were produced by Reppo. They make some fine quality work...

These are very good news. !*cheers*!
All those five paint-works look great. Very well done.

I have a strong respect for Reppo (I got four of the GP20 pack, a great DLC).
But even so, I am right now thinking in Searchlight Simulations for an addon sound pack. They have already done it.
!!**sorry**!!

It's a pretty nice looking model, I'm interested in seeing the cab interior. Hopefully the mail-slot battery box doors are only on the appropriate paint schemes when it is released.

Very nice model! Will the sounds, physics, and simulation be up to standard though? That's been a let down lately with a handful of recent diesel's coming out of the DTG shops. Nonetheless, I'm sure our friends at Searchlight have something up their sleeve. It's been a while since there was a pack of diesel's released with multiple liveries in one pack. My steam wallet is definitely ready for this one. !!*ok*!!

Not really. The thing's a hot mess, bin wise. Neither of us have the time, nor desire to modify it.
I have other projects, and Kevin has the AC44 as primary focus.

There's too many things wrong with it that I'd want to change with child objects, and some of those things can't be covered up, or hidden by nodes such as the incorrect horns on the majority of them, and wrong bell placement.
