Description
Shoreliner cars are railcars produced by Bombardier for US transit agencies. Originally produced for MTA, they were modelled off the Comet II cars that Bombardier had just produced for NJ Transit (and therefore own their orginal body design to Pullman's Comet Is). Primarily operated by MTA on the Metro-North Railroad, CTDOT has a few cars as well, though these are operated by Metro-North as CTDOT no longer uses them on CTRail lines. Septa also has 10 car with the same body as the Shoreliner IIIs. They are included in this mod.

For simplicity sake the shoreliner I and IIs have been combined in this mode. Both are based on the comet II cars body, and have the same single window cab. Because of these similarities they've been grouped together as the same unit.

Ah that's unfortunate. Fixed.

Hey, lover of your work here – just wanted to flag up that the IV cab cars from this set accidentally have transparent windows though!

This is awesome, thank you. Hoping someone creates an M1/2/3/4/6 etc. MU's for MNRR/LIRR or the C-3's for LIRR, then my collection will be complete :steamhappy:
