Yeah, title says it all, I'm currently modifying a route (Carbon County) to be as close to reality as possible, including rolling stock repaints, but unfortunately I find myself to be lacking the quality to do the repaints by myself. If anyone would be so kind as to maybe have a look into repainting the UP GP30 into a GP39RN?

Do you have a picture or two you could share?

Thanks so much buzz! That looks already amazing! Haven't I included this picture as well? If I haven't, I'm sorry for being confusing. Btw, where did you get that Santa Fe GP30 in the background? As far as I know the RBMN also has an ex-Santa Fe GP30 that was kept in its original paint scheme.

Re-paint in the Library. Just do a search of GP30. It was done by ET44C4. It's called ATSF GP30.

OK I'm going to need some numbers. These will have to be numbered manually because of the numbers on the side and the original only has three digits. Let me know what you wish and in the meantime off to the red one.
!*cheers*!

Oh my god buzz, you're amazing! *!!thnx!!* Number-wise, maybe 2531 for the green one, and 2534 for the red one. I can maybe alter the .dcsv and number textures when the reskin is finished, but I don't think I'll succeed.

I can do more than one number. They will just have to be individually numbered and have separate textures. The reason is because of the number on the side of the hood mainly but this will give us a starting point.

Ah ok, thought more than one number per variation might be too much work (I don't know anything about reskinning). If it's not too much of a hassle, maybe 2530, 2531, 2532 and 2533 for the Green and Yellow scheme and 2534 and 2535 for the Red and Yellow scheme. Those are all of the GP39RN the RBMN has, according to their locomotive roster. Massively looking forward to the finished reskin! !!*ok*!!

I'll send you this one shortly so you can beta it for me.

I am a little late but there’s some RBMN GP30’s available here:

However he used the original GP30’s, not the newer DLC one
