Hello, I’m a big fan of your mods, especially the GTEL mod. I have a suggestion to improve it: could you break the GTEL train into three separate parts—Engine, B Unit, and Tender? This way, we could add just the engine, B unit, or tender individually. For realism, it would be great if the engine wouldn’t work alone and would require the tender, and vice versa for the B unit. Also, if only the engine or B unit is added, they should each have half the power and tractive effort of the full GTEL train, while maintaining the same speed. Lastly, I suggest that for every engine and B Unit or two b units, only one tender should be needed. I hope you’ll consider these changes. Thanks!

SomaTGW 12 Nov, 2022 @ 6:34pm

themeatballhero  [author] 28 Apr, 2021 @ 9:49am

themeatballhero  [author] 26 Apr, 2021 @ 3:18pm 
NEVER
rose4100 26 Apr, 2021 @ 3:12pm 
I love the model, love the history behind it (never knew this existed!). But... could you release a version that won't destroy my ears? I play with a headset and it's migrane inducing. May with standard diesel sound without the turbine squeel.

Missouri Pacific Enthusiast 25 Apr, 2021 @ 4:12pm 
the tenders would also work for making 4014's excursion
themeatballhero  [author] 25 Apr, 2021 @ 11:38am 
Hmmm I'll look into that, not a bad idea though
KiddBoston 25 Apr, 2021 @ 11:23am 
This is usually considered a dumb question, but can we get a colorable version of this? Great mod!
n.chiri 25 Apr, 2021 @ 5:44am 
Gorgeous. Thanks!

Just in time as I'm finishing an appropiate save for it.

Blessed be Armour Yellow! Thanks for the bonus water tender too.
CynicalKiwi 24 Apr, 2021 @ 10:21pm
