Description
Express Boxcars were typically used in passenger service, or high priority cargo trains like the NYC Pacemaker service, often pulled by elite locomotives like the Niagara 4-8-4.

Here we have several different reskins of the vanilla boxcar. On 5/4/2020, I updated the grouping and added shadow maps to make them more realistic.

Skins available:
  • NYC Pacemaker
  • UP Overland Gray Express Baggage
  • UP Armour Yellow Baggage
  • MILW Express
  • Cotton Belt Express
  • MoPac Express service
  • Southern Crescent
  • DRG&W
  • Erie Lackawanna Express

Updates
I'll be adding LODs soon, and correct the grouping. All my mods should be getting updates within the next few weeks for increased performance.

Assets don't work unfortunately. Icon under meatball hero and asset builder both show same generic box car and not associated asset. Grouping under meatball hero icon shows REA express only but just shows place holder cube

Fixed the grouping.

yeah i do understand. they have different end years so that may be why

I think somethings wrong with the grouping. They just replace each other. I.E. Missouri Pacific comes out, then the Rio Grande comes out a couple of years later. However, instead of just adding it to the existing boxcars, it just replaces the previous one. Meaning the Missouri Pacific one is not available anymore. Its hard to explain, but I think you get my drift.

This pack disappeared for me a few days ago. Not sure why, just gone. Not in the game anywhere but says I'm subscribed.

I didnt say they were un-usable, to be honest I not that fussy on the design, I just like a variation and yes I like to make UK consists.
