CityRail B-Set (v1.1 beta) =============================================================== By Chris Jennings (cjennings1@bigpond.com) (Jennings857@hotmail.com) Due to the number of $pam posts I've being receiving, my old e-mail account has been deleted. =============================================================== Thank you for downloading this Train for Microsoft Train Simulator. =============================================================== Background ---------- I've being getting a lot of requests to build a "Red Rattler" based train since I released my first MSTS model many years ago. It was somewhat difficult to try to recreate a train that has not being in active service since the mid 90's, but it wasn't totally impossible without the right help. In fact, if it wasn't for the support of a few MSTS fans & NSW train enthusiasts (like Nathan Lyons, HET, e.g.), you would not be playing with this train today (thus also not reading this file I may add). This train includes 3 liveries (including Indian Red, Blue and White) & an (my first) almost authentic cab. =============================================================== Whats New: ---------- v1.0 beta *Initial release v1.1 beta * 2000m LOD added =============================================================== Installation ****** Note: This model has been set up with "CTN Passenger Sounds". These sounds should be installed before installing the model and are available from the Coals to Newcastle Website.****** 1, Double Click on the EXE file and follow the instructions 2, Run MSTS & Enjoy the ride. =============================================================== Known Issues: ------------- This train has a high polygon count, degraded performance may be expected on some low end machines. You may notice that the Pantograph may not reach the wire on some routes, the train sould still have power with the Pantograph up thou. =============================================================== Copyright, Distribution and Terms of Use ---------------------------------------- This train model is released as Freeware.
