Description
This is an updated version of my "US Cargo Train".

Changes:
- Updated model with handrails and some minor things.
- Updated textures on both the engine and the boxcars.

Notes:
The engine's color can not be changed. The boxcars do support in-game color variations, but they are set to white. This can however be changed with the Advanced Vehicle Options mod if you want to! :)
They are now set to use color variations by default. Also, it's now updated for After Dark! :)

@allystrya additionally You do not need to be rude to the mod creator because you want to be right in an argument that you clearly know nothing about.

@allystrya Apparently you DONT know your US locomotives and railroads.

On top of the fact you left out over half of the largest railroads which stocked SD40-2s and SD40's, you dont seem to realize that CN is an abbreviation for the Canadian National Railroad, which you apparently dont know exist. Both CN and CP use American built locomotives, and own subsidiary railroads based in the U.S. [Grand Trunk Western, and Soo Line respectively] which they share rolling stock [Including locomotives] with daily, and own well over 1,000 miles of track in the continental U.S. each. You also dont seem to know how EMD classification works.

The EMD SD40-2 is a locomotive built by the Electro-Motive division of General Motors, and General Motors Diesel, both acting as a replacement for the original SD40 in the catalogue with a longer frame and updated electrical system, all of which being built by EMD and GMD

So in my venture to to find US train tracks and props and engines etc my search lead me as this was US.

Uh no. LOL I know my engines and engine colors this is not one of them.

There is no such model of train as the "US SD40-2" There is the SD40-2 which was an upgrade to the EMD SD40-2. Union Pacific (US), Burlington Northern (US), Conrail (US) and Canadian Pacific (not US) had the largest fleets of SD40-2's out of all North America. After reading the comments below trying to figure out how this was US related you state you used a CN (I assume CP Railway) model. Hence this is not a "US Cargo Train", it is a "Canadian Cargo Train".

So kind of like your one of our co-players who is Canadian not appreciating the collection being called "American" Trains, US Americans like things to be US when they actually are :P Especially when finding them is not the easiest thing in the world in the workshop :) /rant off :) LOL

Is prima hoor!

Do you mind if I use this engine in a future train? I will give you credits (as I always do) and a link to your workshop items. I want do make an American freight express with 2 engines at the front, amd since I have al the cars it's easier for to do, otherwise I would let you do it :) Let me know!

@Punzybobo Rude little boys should stay home under mommy's skirt until they learn to show the adults respect and appreciation.

Aha! Well, how about this Mr. Canuck, you go and shove that Tim Hortons into your mouth, look in the mirror, a big long hard look, and call yourself a hoser.

I may or may not have used a CN livery as inspiration for this...
