Budd Metroliner

Description
Basically, the Metroliner was a EMU railcar mainly designed for first-class, high-speed passenger service on the Northeast Corridor between New York and Washington, and vice-versa. 61 were ordered in 1966 by the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) but service was delayed by difficulties on the railcars' testing, which led to the PRR's successor, the Penn Central (PC), starting operation with them in 1969 on the Metroliner train service; later in 1971, Amtrak took over the service. The Metroliners, despite high aspirations, proved to have a poor reliability; despite being electrically flawed, however, they proved sound mechanically, with Amtrak ordering 600 Amfleets (which shared a similar design to the Metroliner) in the mid-70s. This mod aims to recreate the Metroliner as accurately as possible; it has 3-part horn audio (K5LA) and bell audio. Liveries and edits off of this are allowed, just credit me and mark this as required.

Amazing mod, but when you make these could you PLEASE make liveries with them so we don't have to wait for someone to make one?

I absolutely love the mod, its about time we got one of these. Only problem with it is that the Metroliners didn't have K5LAs, but a combination of Leslie S55 and S37 single chimes, but that's just me being a foamer. Again, great mod, keep up the good work!
