It's not a bug. This Mayberry Goober can't start it because he's letting go of the Prime/Lube before the "Ready" light comes on. I think this is the same guy i've chided before because of this. The C30 is an advanced locomotive, but not even close to what is going to be available is TSW. If he is not getting it now, he might as well go back to playing with his matchbox cars.

Imphantum, i've done a versiom before that stays on at the beginning of the scenario. If I remember right, you modify the Blueprint so that all of the breakers (BRxxxxx) controls are on by default.

Hold for 1 minute. !!*ok*!!

I saw that too. Some people just need a manual every now and then. !*roll-laugh*!

I'm still wondering why a flushable toilet with sound is a missing feature on this engine.

VRC,

First off absolutely love your locomotives and are in no few words absolutely fantastic!
If its any consolation, from my experience the chemical toilets make a 'squirty' sound as you pump the handle.
That also said most of us rarely touch them and if you have to they rarely work. So I would argue the point that your locomotive is 100% realistic *!lol!*

Again, amazing work!
Jerry

There are only so many nodes (or parts) available for each model, and we used every one of them up to animate as many switches, knobs, and levers in the cab as we could. The toilet had to take a back seat (pun intended) to other features in this model.

So, there's no bug and there's no bog, sounds as though you've nailed it, then, Jerry....... !!*ok*!! !*salute*!

Great job everyone at VRC! I'm not even a CSX fan, (hoping for some CR and NW repaints *!greengrin!* ) but the model, the sounds and weathering is AWESOME!!! !*cheers*!

Not sure if this green streaking is intentional or not?

"Not sure if the green streaking is intentional or not."


What were the original cab colors of GE locomotives built in the 60's and 70's?

It's old. It's rusty. It's peeling!

DISCLAIMER: Due to the time period that is modelled with these units, i'm going to have to ask that you please don't eat the paint chips from the rusted unit.
