California Zephyr Consist in Amtrak Phase I

I'm quite surprised that no one has already repainted DTG's California Zephyr. Of Course some of the cars already have been reskinned into Phase I (the 48 seat Coach and the 10-6 sleeper), however none of the baggage, domes, diners, or sleeper compartments made the cut. Which I think is a shame. I recall someone on here a while ago reskinning the set as the ACL Champion. Is someone willing to reskin these cars?

I have photos of the other cars, however, the computer will not let me upload them.

I did the ACL. What do you mean the 'computer won't let you upload' them? !*roll-laugh*!

Well, I'm clicking to add the file, but nothing else is happening afterwards. I downloaded all of them and only one is working.

It says "the extension png is not allowed."

The Amtrak E8 DLC comes with a plethora of phase 1 stock, which is probably what you're looking for.

Take the .png files into paint and convert to .jpg then you can upload them.

With that being said, the observation car is not included in the pack. I for one would like to see them in an Amtrak scheme alongside the FP7...

Sorry about the late reply. The E8 pack only had the coach and the 10-6 Sleeper from the California Zephyr pack. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in painting the rest of the consist into Phase I. And I agree that an Amtrak FP7 would be a great addition.

I'm confused (what's new). What all is there somewhere and what cars are missing?

Here's a rundown. (I think)

The E8 DLC from DTG has a plethora of passenger equipment re-painted into the Phase I paint scheme. What HendersonSub wants is a repaint of the California Zephyr cars from the FP7 DLC into the Phase I paint scheme.

I thought it would be a good word to describe Amtrak's early days of rail equipment. !*roll-laugh*!

OK here is everything I could find. Now what is it you are missing? I didn't look but I take it that there is no FP7 in Amtrak phaseI?
