Intermodal loader/unloader

Unread postby PDX-Mike » Wed Mar 30, 2011 6:28 pm

Are there any automated intermodal loade/loaders out there for RailWorks? I have the one that you have to pull the empty/loaded rail cars through, and stop and load/unload each car. But in RL it looks more like the loader would do the moving and the rail cars would stay fixed....

Also, which is taller, a double stack intermodal or a auto carrier. Need to make sure my overpasses are high enough when I'm laying track...

Don't know of any moveable trailer lifts made yet. I think double stacks are a little higher.
When your laying track, have a car close by for clearance check.
Or put heighth restrictions on the overpass. !*brav*!
P.S. There are many overpasses here in Chicago that will not allow a double stack to pass under.
Every once and a while, they peel off the roof's of a few.
