Description
The largest, most complete set of modern, American freight trains on the workshop!

A modern American freight train for your city! Includes multiple custom freight cars, and is set up to feature automatic weathering, realistic nod and tilt levels, and more! This train is roughly the length of trains in the stock game, so it should fit into almost any stock or custom train station.

If you want a more realistic, longer set of trains, 20-30 car versions available on my workshop!

What's included?
Custom locomotives (1024x textures, ~1700 tris)
Custom freight cars (512x textures per car, < 750 tris per car)
Custom sound effects - use Vehicle Effects for custom engine, bell, and horn sounds, as well as exhaust! Use Extra Vehicle Effects to get even more train sounds like flanges, brakes, and more!

What's not included?
Props, which are available as packs.

What liveries are there?
My trains use the following fantasy liveries (IRL equivalents in parentheses):
Colossal Systems (CSX)
Freightrail
Arrowhead and Western (Union Pacific)
Cedar Valley Northern (Burlington Northern/BNSF)
Gramercy Southern (Norfolk Southern)
American Midwest Railway (Kansas City Southern)
Kendrick Aubrey Railroad (Canadian Pacific/Canadian National)
EFX (TTX Leasing)

TANX (GATX)
Pipecar (Procor)
Falcon Falls Lumber Company (Tobacco Valley Lumber Co.)
Flathead State Rail Service (Montana Rail Link)

and more!


Will you make a shorter version? This doesn't fit into my stations!
I have shorter versions available! Check out my Workshop Page or Train Collection

Why don't you do real life liveries? / Can you do *real life livery here* for me?
I just really prefer making up my own versions. It gives me some flexibility in the UV map, and also lets me have fun making up something new, something funny, something that pays tribute to a YouTube series that I like (or make), and it means that I can do a bit less research instead of having to find exact real life liveries of everything.

Time's up - 5 years old. Time to make a dummy cargo version of this great train.

How do I get cargo trains to use this model?

Hi @Banance -

Thanks so much for the reference material and the suggestion! For now though, I have a long enough backlog to keep busy, as well as my focus on American trains putting the Litra out of scope for me right now. With that said, I am open to commissions, so please let me know if something like that could be a path you'd like to take.

Thanks,
bsquiklehausen

Hi Bsquiklehausen. I live in Denmark, and I would like to ask you if you could make this danish train:
The train gets pulled with a Litra ME locomotive:

The ME locomotive pulls the coaches, Litra ABS:

And here you can see the height:

I really hope you can make it. But only if you have time. Kind regards, Banance :steamhappy:

@IYF | JohnPower - it's Ronyx's crane rail decal applied on top of rails clipped into ploppable asphalt.

Just asking, what's that Rail/Street asset? Or is it just a texture for Rails? Would love to know :)
