FAQs
Can I use this without Railway 2 US?
Yes, but the difference in catenary wire height makes the pantograph clip through vanilla-height catenary wires.

Additive Shader to rear light and headlight effects.

I've been having an issue where the engine disappears when replace end car with engine is on. Is there a way I can fix this?

I love the vehicle but the capacity is too low.

Hi Delta, can you make a 6 car train version with trains sounds too?? my single island platforms need them to help get the train signal working to avoid train traffic at stations.

@dgrad598:

The horn sounds every time the train reaches a station. Due to game limitations you need to see the entire train set when it's driving in reverse to hear the horn (that sound only applies to "train engine" types of vehicles, on reverse the leading engine is technically a trailer so you only get the sound from the invisible back end).

If you want the horn to sound when the train is leaving a station you can change four lines in VehicleEffectsDefinition.xml which you can find in Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\255710\2610967522.

Open that file using Editor and look for these lines:

<Effect name="d2k5.ACS64 K5LA Short" fallback="None">
<RequiredFlags>Arriving</RequiredFlags>

Over there change "Arriving" to "Leaving" or simply include both if you want to hear the horn in both situations ( <RequiredFlags>Arriving Leaving</RequiredFlags> ). This should do the job ;)

Meshd, Nice job on the train horn, wish it would sound after every station. Also the engines dont appear until they reach their destination. any fix?
