Dutch Garbage Trains

Description
A Dutch built TADS trash wagon of the second third generation as built by the Dutch rolling stock manufacturer Werkspoor in 1963. These wagons were used by the Dutch waste disposal company or VAM. After their replacement by the TAKKLS type wagons they were bought up by Talbot between 1987 and 1990. Talbot then refurbished them for use in the transport of woodchips and sawdust, a role in which they were used until 2005.

It carries 60 tonnes of waste (all types, even fertilizer and scrap), weight is 30 tonnes when empty, has two LODs and has three skins:
- Original gray color scheme
- VAM compost
- VAMORA composted soil

Purchasable with dollars.

Why would you use this wagon over the vanilla trash wagons?
- Almost double the capacity of the standard EAS waste wagon
- Can be sold to the soviet union for good profits since it's a western wagon
- Looks fancier with no visable waste (might smell a little less too)
- Can be used with the rail distribution office like the vanilla trash wagons

Another wagon type, TAKKLS, was built in 1970 in Yugoslavia by Fabrika Vagona Kraljevo

This wagon is purchasable with rubles. So it provides an alternative to the Tads should you trade more with the eastern bloc.

It carries 60 tonnes of waste like the tads (all types, even fertilizer and scrap), weight is 30 tonnes when empty, has two LODs and has seven skins:
- VAM compost
- VAM 60th anniversary blue
- VAM potted plant soil yellow
- VAM recycling yellow/green
- VAM large logo
- VAM compost GFT (GFT meaning Vegetables Fruit and Garden waste)
- REGAM gas from waste white

The Takkls is available from 1970 to 1998

That should be all!

I've been using these wagons and they are beautiful! Very nice work, thank you.

@Palkia I am aware of this but there is nothing I can do about it. Regular (vanilla) waste wagons seem to suffer the same issue at border stops for me too. At regular waste stations within the republic it goes a lot faster for me.

Loading and unloading the cargo is incredibly slow?
I have to wait for months while selling the garbage to customs.

It seems, that when you use train with this great (no doubt) wagons, and he is for example standing at the customs, it covertly blocks all other tracks, although the signals show that the way is clear, no other trains will enter the free tracks until the train with these cars leaves the given "zone".

What I mean, on picture (yea this is not customs):

In this situation, 4 trains can be at station at same time. If there is one loading/unloading, chain signal will become Blue and next train can come on free track. BUT if that train in station/customs is train with these wagons, chain signal is still Blue, but that train will not enter. For no reason.

Did anybody else encounter this?:)

@IslaDeMalta Mods should update automatically once I update them. I've had it happen myself with other mods I subbed to, where suddenly new vehicles appeared in my game that I didn't remember subbing to, but it turned out it were packs getting updated. So on your end you shouldn't have to do anything.
