EDIT: RELEASED 01/02/2008
I don't have any photos - I only have the message as this title states:
Subject to the successful recovery of the editing files from my main MSTS unit (ATI's v7.12 CCC and drivers did a number on the registry), KLW will soon be releasing a NJ Transit variant of the GP40FH-2 "Covered Wagon."
Might have photos for you very early Monday morning if all goes well (wish me luck with the temp. master HD and the recovery install). Loco is based on our usual GP40-2 model, with a hood model that observant users will note is based off of the MP36 (with the required height and general differences corrected to the GP40FH prototype, of course).
Take care,
-Kurt

All is well and good - both model and TSM file have been recovered. Here is a horrid looking in-progress shot: Complete with incorrect temporary mapping textures. Yech. This is probably what they looked like when MK was building them. -Kurt

All I need is a quartet of non-turbocharged EMDs slugging up a hill.

Oh thats neat. Didnt the hoods for those come off of F45s? The cabs wound up on the MARC passenger GP40s right?

Well, it's a start. Better than I can do, I'll say that.

Don't recall who MK send the hoods off to, but I believe they did go on the MARC flared-radiator units. Here's a progress shot taken from my alt. MSTS installation (was getting low FPS on this machine, hence only one photo): -Kurt

Thanks. Here is one last photo. Only difference from the earlier photos is the addition of the 3D marker lights (I was less then happy with the cheap-o textured workaround): And for those of you who are KLW members - it has since been released to the KLW Members' File Library. Have at it Enjoy! -Kurt
