Hi V scalin' Friscophiles! Ed's Trains has just released a Frisco GP38 pack for Microsoft's Train Simulator. You can see them here: http://www.edstrainsonline.com/store/GP38.htm (Note: I have no affiliation with Ed's Trains. Just posting the info for those that may be interested.) Andre
Andre, The link doesn't work. http://www.edstrainsonline.com/store/GP38.htm Try that. I'm glad some one finally made a V scale GP38-2. I'm surprised no one had done it yet. Just wish they would work with Trainz 12 cause that's what I use now........... Ethan
'Tis a shame they're not usable with TS2012 from Railworks. Only Frisco stuff I've seen for that game is a couple of 1200-class steel cabooses and some boxcars- no locomotives yet. (Kinda like how it used to be a few decades ago in the model RR field, come to think of it.......)
They look nice. We need some Frisco GP35's and GP38's for Trainz. I've been working on a reskin of one of rrmods.com GP35's. It's coming along nicely but still need to get some of the details on the handrails and steps correct. Then comes weathering.
On the trains download station is a SW1200 (not a 1500), a sd38 and 1522 and several cars. I have not found any other free ware. But for pay ware there are two different places that have SD45's, and also SD40-2's and GP15-1's. There is ample stuff out there for MSTS. Ethan
All three of these sites offer some very high quality Frisco/SLSF freeware for Trainz. If you haven't spent some time browsing these sites for some goodies it's a lot of fun. http://rrmods.com/ http://rrmods.com/ http://uslw.net/
Each of those websites have GP-38-2, though not for Frisco. I suppose a Frisco re-skin is possible for use on Trainz. George Nelson
