Oh cool, thats great to hear!

MaikC [author] 31 Mar, 2020 @ 3:53am

The locomotive gets a thorough update. So it will take some time.

Max 30 Mar, 2020 @ 4:36pm

Maik [Ger] Can you Please put Your EMD F40PH On To Transport Fever 2

Sandstorm1 23 Aug, 2019 @ 5:51am

Could you pleases do more modern VRE trains, thanks

MaikC [author] 13 Jan, 2019 @ 5:40am

The EMD40PH always runs elefant-style, it was a absolutely exception to see one running backwards while multiengine operations. The reversible feature will be added with the rework.

aspin 12 Jan, 2019 @ 12:25pm

Beutiful work, but I was wondering if you would consider making the engines also have a reversed version for push/pull operations?

webbie33 13 Dec, 2018 @ 3:13pm

@Maik - Danke.

MaikC [author] 13 Dec, 2018 @ 2:26pm

Hi dwebster73, i had take a look at your repaints, nice works. So feel free to use my F40 PH for a repaint.

webbie33 11 Dec, 2018 @ 11:49pm

@Maik - May I get your permission to do a repaint of mod? I've painted Bombardier Bi-Level for Altamont Corridor Express and would like to do engine as well.

You can look at my profile to see other repaints I've done.

MaikC [author] 12 Oct, 2018 @ 3:20am

Naa ich weiss net. Die F40 ist nie als Schiebelok mit Cabcar am anderen Ende gefahren, hatte die eventuell keine Fernsteuerung? Bilder gibt's da jedenfalls keine. Und auch back to back war eine absolute Ausnahme. Die wurden eigentlich immer vorwärts gefahren.

YstlDystl 11 Oct, 2018 @ 9:03pm

Wenn du schon mal dabei bist, könnte ich vielleicht eine gedrehte Version beantragen, damit man schöne Doppeltraktionen oder die Lok am Zugende nachbilden kann? Das wäre noch das i-Tüpfelchen!

MaikC [author] 11 Oct, 2018 @ 2:36pm

Demnächst gibts ein richtiges update mit neuer Kupplung, Schläuchen etc. Neue Drehgestelle und alles was in der Mitte drunter hängt ist dann auch neu. Ist heute in die Lackiererei gegangen.

YstlDystl 11 Oct, 2018 @ 1:43pm

Jaa! Viel besser! Passt jetzt super zu den Amtrak Wagen :) danke!

MaikC [author] 11 Oct, 2018 @ 5:02am

Hier auf Steam habe ich erstmal eine etwas hellere Version hochgeladen kannst es ja mal testen ;)

YstlDystl 11 Oct, 2018 @ 2:41am

Wollte halt international bleiben ;) na dann freu ich mich mal aufs Update, wenns mal so weit ist (hoffentlich bald hihi)

MaikC [author] 10 Oct, 2018 @ 11:43pm

Wieso schreiben hoer auf steam auf einmal alle in englisch :D. Ja das war in der Tat ein bisschen finster. Ich habe das mal versucht ein bisschen an meine Amfleet Coaches anzupassen. Die Neulackierung könnte eigentlich beginnen da ich mit mesh und mapping fertig bin.

YstlDystl 10 Oct, 2018 @ 1:49pm

I was so excited to use these but unfortunately they are really dark (like very, very dark) in the game. You wrote a few times about updating them - is that still planned anytime soon?

Strange Science Man 1 Sep, 2018 @ 12:46pm

you should add a p40 if possible since i do amtak things in my games.

MaikC [author] 13 Aug, 2018 @ 6:45am

Done ;)

Tempest 13 Aug, 2018 @ 6:19am

maybe try to add me?

Tempest 13 Aug, 2018 @ 6:16am

It is saying error friend request failed

MaikC [author] 13 Aug, 2018 @ 1:30am

Hi @Tempest, you can do that, but the FP45 has a completely different cab so you have to rebuild the whole front. Wish you much success with it.
Can you send me another friend request

Tempest 12 Aug, 2018 @ 5:12pm

Hey Maik I would like to modify your model into an FP45 locmotive... can I get your permission?

50n10_M49R 31 Jul, 2018 @ 4:04pm

Also @Maik. Any in Metra?

MaikC [author] 31 Jul, 2018 @ 12:44pm

Yes that is planned since a long time. It will come with some other improvements

50n10_M49R 28 Jul, 2018 @ 8:34pm

@Maik. Can you make a cabbage unit of this?!

devendevers 2 Jun, 2018 @ 3:26pm

Maybe your next F40 repaint could be a Metra F40PH!

Col0Korn 16 May, 2018 @ 11:42pm

Hi Maik! I've created a Canadian GO Transit F40 livery I created using this mod as a template. Give me a shout, would love to show you the results!

Neighbor Kid 5 Apr, 2018 @ 3:59pm

Can canfirm, the loco does not show up in game.

MaikC [author] 9 Mar, 2018 @ 7:03am

Some repaints are in the work by a newbie painter, so it could take some time. VIA will come with my next update.

1ak0nia 8 Mar, 2018 @ 6:33pm

can you remake this into variuous commuter liveries such as Metra, ViaRail and GO?

ryand_smith 29 Jul, 2017 @ 8:38am

I have a question, would you mind if I made a NJT/Metro North Repaint for this?

MamaRussellThePie 24 Jun, 2017 @ 4:19pm

need cabbage xd

Northerner Transport Hub 5 May, 2017 @ 10:19pm

I am using this on a map in france. Suits perfectly

GDRacer22 27 Feb, 2017 @ 2:17pm

i hope what the comments are saying is not true.. and or is fixed

Chris "Fred" 21 Feb, 2017 @ 2:14pm

Are you going to add Amfleet cars? (From different eras and styles)

fishbed 22 Dec, 2016 @ 9:58pm

Do a ViaRail version of this

Captain_Pavlos 16 Dec, 2016 @ 10:57am

Unfortunately, I cannot get the loco in the depot at all. I'm in 1982 and it is not there at all, even though it is activated as a mod during loading the game. This is really a pitty, as the vanilla game lacks a useful pax diesel in the 1980-2000s

Christoph 12 Dec, 2016 @ 11:17pm

Can confirm @robertwinkel2003's report. Even when starting a game in 1980, neither the F40PH nor the GP40-2 appears in the depot as available for purchase. @Maik [Ger] any chance you know what might be going wrong? I have no idea if it's a problem with the mod itself or if there's compatibility issues with some other mod I'm using or what.

Ric Flair 10 Dec, 2016 @ 3:39pm

Still not there...

MaikC [author] 10 Dec, 2016 @ 3:33am

RobertWinkel2003 you are sure that you are in the right year? they are availiable from 1979-1993.

Elijah1 9 Dec, 2016 @ 2:41pm

that is what cars im tlaking abot

Ric Flair 9 Dec, 2016 @ 1:50pm

It says the mods are in the game, But they do not show up ingame, I can't purchase them... Help

MaikC [author] 8 Dec, 2016 @ 3:38am

Depends on what cars you mean. Actually I'm working on the Superliner's

Elijah1 2 Dec, 2016 @ 4:00am

will you be makeing the cars for it?

MaikC [author] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 2:03pm

Here you can take a look at the momentary progress [www.transportfever.net] for the superliners

MaikC [author] 30 Nov, 2016 @ 1:52pm

That will be nice, the main difference between I+II was the new trucks for the 2nd Generation. I will make the Coach+sightseer and stepdown for use with other coaches. The diner makes not so much sense for TPF and Coach and coach baggage is mainly same. Some good fotos of "decals" will be also nice it's hard to find good (high qulaity) pic's.

Thaddeus Thudpucker 29 Nov, 2016 @ 8:50pm

I might be able to help with some Superliner materials, I also have a set of drawings that I can see about copying for you. There are a few variations of Superliner, those being Coach, Coach-Baggage, Sleeper, Diner, and Sightseer Lounge. Also, there are Superliner I and II's, but the differences are minor.

MaikC [author] 29 Nov, 2016 @ 11:39am

Another one: I'm on the superliner for TPF . Maybee is someone from USA here and can take some pictures for me? Need some inside pics especially from the room downstairs and the stairs. Best is to send me a pn via our forum :-) Thank you

MaikC [author] 29 Nov, 2016 @ 11:37am

Th SP 4449 is already at work by another modder from our forum. The Cab forward is an idea for later, but I haver never tried a steam-loco yet.
You can look at transportfever.net for more upcoming mods ;-)
