Hi all
Just DL'ed the 48 ton GE (love it)and was wondering if there are any updates for the Baldwin.
Been thinking about tackling the Chicago Aurora & Elgin towards the end of service and both of these will come in handy for freight service.

I've been messing around with the trolley pole, windows and eng file. It's about as far as I think I'm gonna take it for now.

Not the greatest model, but it works. Think I'll package it up this weekend and put it out. Currently doesn't have an appropriate cab, though there may be one on the way. Hopefully someone can give it a decent paint job.

Hi Frank,
I'll send you the files for a cabview tonight, I've been meaning to finish it. It won't have working controls but it will have a few tweaks, so you can upload it with the model. I'm still a while away from animated cabs at this stage, but you'll get one asap.
All the best,

This locomotive has been uploaded (I think). Look for it soon.
It has no cab (none that you should be using anyway). I really have no idea what the cab of one of these really looks like. Possibilities include the cab from Tim Muir's steeplecab or the BE6/8 cab from the file library. The BE6/8 uses kilometers but I'm guessing that could be changed. It uses default acela sounds and it would be nice to have more appropriate sounds too.
