Smr Simple!

My new train, I hope you like.

GE Genesis has 4 versions (P40DC, P40DCs, P42DC and P32AC-DM) neither has any visual difference, having only techniques modification. I assume that version would be P42DC.

Nice work, keep up

Nice model, did you made that?

I think its a little short, especially noticable at the nose, if you compare it with the drawing of the P-42 here: Is that intended?
But besides that scale is ok, good work

His measurements are correct, only the height is greater.
All trains of the game have the wrong measurements, they generally have 20 meters long and 6 meters tall.
The measures of the real GP38-2 are 18 meters long and 4.28 meters high, but in the game he has 21.13 meters in length and 6.15 meters high. this game is not purpose to be realistic.

So.. where do you get those measurements in meters from?
Looks like you just converted the generic units by 1/10 to meters, which i doubt to be the correct scale.

The GP38-2 is sadly one of the models where the dimensions of the 3 axis are not in scale to eachother, i can admit that.

On your pic it isnt just higher, it has a larger scale at all. And those smaller ones seem to fall into the track

Thats strange, it would mean that height and width are not in proportion. But they are exactly in proportion in my opinion^^

The history, measures (in millimeters), specifications and photos:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SBB-CFF-FFS_Re_620
http://www.bushido.dk/payware/re_66/re_66.htm

I venture to say that is not only the GP38 that has the wrong measurements, but all trains in the game ...

Yeah the Re 6/6 is really a bad model, like many others from firaxis. That doesnt mean there cant be some realistic in this game, its up to us^^

So and heres my proof that your model has the correct width/height proportion, pretty well obviously

As I can not put all the original trains in the right scales I'd rather let my closest of which already exist not to generate a visual conflict.

Anyway, wait for more in the coming days:

Wow, exciting stuff!!

Yep thats the only thing we can do, though i did already rescale/rebuild one of them and probably will do more^^
Making new models is different, there i can keep the right proportions from the start

Anyway, keep up the good work

If you're taking requests I'd like to see an M-10000 or a Zephyr!

Of course they would have to have custom cars as well.
And the special end car would have to be a mail car since SMR always wants to put them on the end of the train.
BTW does anyone know if there is a way to fix that?
