STEAM LOCOMOTIVES for TRAINZ |

What TRAINS site would be complete without including the locos that
are central to many users TRAINZ experience. And what better to do it than to dedicate a page to the
fire-breathing, smoke belching monsters that form part of every countries train heritage.

The General is
an American 4-4-0 Steam Locomotive that was made famous in a
daring raid from the North during the American Civil war of
1861-1865.
The original engine was built in 1855 by Rogers, Ketchum &
Grosvenor of Paterson, N.J. for the Western & Atlantic
Railroad.
The General went through several "mishaps" during the war,
being severely damaged in one raid and rebuilt at that time.
She was refitted in the 1960's, and displayed throughout the
country during the Centennial of the Civil War. The original
engine used wood as fuel. She was converted to burn coal in
the 1870's, and finally in the 1960's converted to use Oil
as fuel. My models depict the wood burning version.
The current museum colors are depicted in the "Museum"
model. Plans are to use this model and make a Civil War
version.
The Engine is currently located at the Southern Museum of
Locomotive History in Kennesaw, Georgia. USA. Details about
the engine as well as it's history, photographs, and even a
1927 full length movie starring Buster Keaton can be
accessed at

one raid in 1864 and rebuilt in 1871. THIS MODEL IS A
RECREATION OF THE CIVIL WAR ENGINE AND TENDER 1855 TO 1864.
This engine is a wood
burning engine and will "refuel" at any of Pencil42's wood
refueling stations. It also employees an automated "fireman"
who tends to feeding the firebox and adjusts water levels.
IF you want to fire the fireman, simply hit "shift SPACE"".
To re-hire, "Shift SPACE" again.
Colors and details were
arrived at by combining 2 paintings of the Civil War General
and Microscales Decal sheet 87-1173 along with various
photos of engines of that period. One painting was by Wilbur
Kurtz, (a leading authority on the General at the time of
the painting), the other image was acquired from the
Southern Museum of Civil War and Locomotive History. Some
artistic liberties were included by myself on this model.
The Engine is currently located at the Southern Museum of

The OLD TIMER 4-4-0
Americas love affair with a
steam engine
UTC / TRS2004 |
|
This
locomotive dominated the American railway system for 40 years from the mid 1840s. Typically weighing 90,000 pounds it originally
operated at around 100psi. It was nearly 16.8 meters long and could generate seven
thousand pounds of tractive effort. While it had a top speed of 60mph it averaged 25mph.
The wheel spacing is set for 3 foot NG
Track and the internal view on the tender is the engineers view.
Note: You can change the rail co. name by
adding text to the westerntemp.tga file in the tender file and replacing the "western.tga" |

The Merced Gold Mining company worked a mine in the
mountains above the San Joaquin Valley in California and used a 24 inch gauge Porter
Locomotive Company 0-4-0T loco to haul mined ore to the mill lower down in the valley. The
tipping ore cars used were built by the Denver Engineering Company. The loco was known by
the locals as either 'Whistling Jimmy' or 'Leaping Lena'
The models shown were closely copied from drawings of the actual equipment and portrayed
in the well worked and rusty finish that decorated the originals after a long life of hard
work. As the Porter was a standard design for narrow gauge use a set of 36 inch gauge
models is also provided.
Both sets of model are made to run on track made to chunky_mesh standard height of 0.3
metre"
The engineer animation is
toggled by the Pantograph button.

NOTE: Due to an untraceable bug in Trainz, sometimes at
the end of the first part of the animation cycle some or all of the engineer figure may
disappear, and show again when the reverse cycle starts. If this annoys you, I am sorry,
and suggest you ignore the animation. Enjoy the models |

This is a freelance model of a Class B 2 Truck Logging Shay. This Shay is
designed for 2ft gauge track and is loosely based on Trinity County Lumber Co. Shay #161
(sn-161).
This is a beta model and
updates may follow sometime later depending on any issues found.
The model and texture was
provided by Ben Neal (bdaneal) and was edited by me. Many thanks to Chris Grossman
(atsfrr3000) and David Johnson (GP_38-2) for testing the model for errors in TRS2006.
Thanks to them the model should be error free and work with all versions of Trainz 04 and
up. Also thanks to Ben Neal (bdaneal) for supplying the base model of his wonderful Gilpin
'Russell'. And a thanks to Kevin Martin (kevmt) for his safety valve scripting. The
texture mapping and mesh will be changed in the future. Updates will be avail able as I make them.
