With winter coming on in northern Minnesota, the Mesaba Electric has just taken delivery of McGuire-Cummings new snow sweeper X-55. This beautiful model from Tim Muir should be available shortly in the downloads section.

Here it is leaving the Virginia station ready to get the streets swept up as needed.

Thanks Dave!

I'm planning to release this as a beta - until I get the animation figured out. Also, I'm going to release it in three versions:
1), The Mesaba X-55 set for 19-1/2 foot trolley,
2), A generic version in "Traction Orange" set for 19-1/2' wire,
3) The Generic in "Traction Orange" set for 20 foot wire.

....if anyone has the answers why the front broom wont animate, I'd appreciate some help. I'm using TSM and MS Paint exclusively.

Thanks,

Tim

I'm terible at cabviews, so all it has is the Milwaukee 1100 cabview from Matt Austin-but the passenger view is set so that you're looking out the front where the motorman would be standing. I use that for my cabview for now.

Cheers,

Tim
