Illinois Central Gulf GP38-2 Pack

Description
On August 10, 1972, the Illinois Central Railroad merged with the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio Railroad to form the Illinois Central Gulf Railroad (reporting mark ICG). October 30 of that year saw the Illinois Central Gulf commuter rail crash, the company's deadliest.

At the end of 1980, ICG operated 8,366 miles of railroad on 13,532 miles of track; that year it reported 33,276 million ton-miles of revenue freight and 323 million passenger-miles. Later in that decade, the railroad spun off most of its east–west lines and many of its redundant north–south lines,

including much of the former GM&O. Most of these lines were bought by other railroads, including entirely new railroads such as the Chicago, Missouri and Western Railway; Paducah and Louisville Railway; Chicago Central and Pacific Railroad; and MidSouth Rail Corporation.

In 1988, the railroad's parent company, IC Industries, spun off its remaining rail assets and changed its name to Whitman Corporation. On February 29, 1988, the newly separated ICG dropped the "Gulf" from its name and again became the Illinois Central Railroad.

Here we have the Illinois Central Gulf EMD GP38-2 Pack.

sadly it's the base mod as it's from the Train Fever/Transport Port Fever 1 and it's limited in certain aspects. the group tpf2 na group was expecting to get a better model but that fell through.

I took this opportunity to look at all of the previous mods.
I feel like the painting style has changed about three times (I'm just an amateur, so this is just my guess).The texture is rust-resistant. That's what it looks like. The actual photo also looks like it was painted like that, probably because it's near the water. Thank you.
