UP Lightning Stripe GP15 Request

Hey Guys,

This is a request that I've been hoping to have made. Yes Buzz has said that he'd do it, but is just busy working on the other requests he's been working on, but I just wanted to show people what they might look like when complete.

Yeah, I saw one operating in Colorado Springs, CO so I wanted to see if there were a set in RW, but only a poorly made version only.

I'll do it if Buzz doesn't want to. I see them running back and forth on the main near where I work.
Is the correct loco to use the one in file library named:
"Union Pacific (UP) UPY-588 GP15-1 by Mike (MadMike1024) Calvin & Daniel (PapaXpress) Vystrcil"?

Only for one variation, but these ones don't have the beacon flashers on the cab.

No, The beacons are on it. The images I posted are the versions without them.

Those are child objects so they are easy to remove.

That's what I was hoping. You haven't started on it, have you?

I got some work done on this weekend. Still lots to do. I removed the child objects from the engine bin file.

I added a second engine and the child objects were back! !**conf**! I double checked the bin file and they aren't in there.
I'm at a loss. Any ideas how this is possible?

Was the second one a nd version or something like that? If so that bin needs to be modified also.

No. There is a simple version that I haven't modified but I made sure I was placing the standard version.
I'll keep looking. It has to be something I overlooked. !*hp*!

Tonight I tried clearing the cache; no change. So I double checked the bin file (gp15enginea.bin) and the child object were not there.
I then went through the simple engine bin (gp15engine_simp.bin) and took out the child object in it. Cleared the cache again.
Now I can place the simple engine and the child objects do not appear but if I place the regular engine the child objects are there.

It makes no sense to me.
