The Centipede, like some other RSC DLC engines, requires the placement of multiple parts to make one entire engine and each part behaves like an engine. Just as RW_Tools will not swap an entire A-B-A engine configuration or an Engine-Tender combination, it will probably not swap all three parts of the Centipede at one swell foop. To swap a steam loco & tender for a single diesel engine, I swap the locomotive itself for the diesel unit and then insert the tender in the TS2013 scenario editor; this procedure is necessary because the loco carries the driver disc. I haven't tried swapping in a Centipede, but my guess would be to use RW_Tools to swap the section that carries the driver disc and then shoehorn in the other two segments of the Centipede in the Timetable Editor. Be sure to check the consistency of the overall consist before attempting to drive the result!
