Japanese Government Railways Hoha6594(6594~6604) , Hoha6605(6605~6668)

Around 1897, bogie coaches with open decks at both ends and aisles for moving to neighboring coaches began to appear on the Japanese Government Railways. Since there are so many types of these coaches with open decks built around 1897~1907, I plan to publish several types of coaches at once in several mods. This mod is the first one. It will include two types of type 6590 coaches (Hoha6594 and Hoha6605) and several types of modified coaches from the Taisho era (some types of modified coaches are still under construction and will be added later).

Below is a brief description of the Hoha6594 and Hoha6605.
○Hoha6594(6594~6604) Type 6590
Third class bogie coach manufactured at Shimbashi factory. The interior of the car has a seating arrangement that is a combination of long seats and box seats.
○Hoha6605(6605~6668) Type 6590
Third class bogie coach manufactured at the Shimbashi factory. Like the Hoha 6594 group, the interior has a seating arrangement that is a combination of long seats and box seats, but the depth of the chairs is larger than that of Hoha 6594 to accommodate a smaller capacity, which is thought to have improved the comfort of the passengers. During the Taisho period, there were some cars with modified bogies and additional ventilators on the roof.

~Mod Contents~.
A total of 7 types of coaches will be added, 3 types of Hoha6594 and 4 types of Hoha6605, reproducing differences in paint and signage depending on the period. These will be added as variations of Hoha6594 (6594~6604) and Hoha6605 (6605~6668) as follows. Habo102 and Habo158 are not the type names, but the numbers of the cars to be added in this mod. The Taisho era appearance is being added in this mod on a trial basis, but as with previous mods, variations from the Late Meiji era ~ Early Taisho eras will continue to appear until the last year when the cars can be purchased.

～Caution～
○There are many unknowns about Japanese vehicles of Meiji era. So, I have made my own guesses about the dimensions, colors, and other unknowns. Therefore, the dimensions and shape may differ from the actual car, and some parts may not be reproduced. The maximum speed of the vehicles in this mod is the creator's estimate.
○When installing the mod, please make sure that it works on your own PC and install it at your own risk.
Please understand the above in advance.
