Australia New South Wales Government Railways NSW UME Bogie Flat Wagons Version 1.0 BBS Files are dated June 2008 =========================================== Designed by Brian Bere-Streeter Email: bbss@bigpond.net.au Chief Executive Officer The Short North Carriage and Wagon Engineering Workshops Suppliers of Bespoke NSWGR Carriages and Wagons for Microsoft Train Simulator - =========================================== 1. Model Details 2. Installation Notes 3. Historical Notes 4. Copyright, Distribution, Terms of Use =========================================== 1. Model Details Original 3D models of NSW UME Bogie Flat wagons - by Brian Bere-Streeter Girder and Tube loads - by kind permission of the copyright holder – Ian MacMillan ian@BCLR.co.uk Bogies - by kind permission of the copyright holder – David Rowe. Auto couplers - by kind permission of the authors - Jeff Link and Tim Muir These new wagons came about, because of a need to create authentic train formations for use on the Microsoft Train Simulator routes - 'Coals to Newcastle' - by Peter Newell, and the ‘Main Illawarra’ – by Brian Bere-Streeter. ‘Coals to Newcastle’ depicts the large BHP steelworks at Newcastle, and ‘Main Illawarra’ depicts the large AIS steelworks at Port Kembla. Theses wagons were produced to allow a variety of common steel loads to be worked away from the exchange sidings at both steelworks, to destinations ‘all over NSW’. New models were created for: NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon - empty NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – bars NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – billets NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon - plates NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – coils tarped NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 2 large red girders NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 3 large black girders NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 8 small red girders NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 9 small black girders NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 40ft red tubes NSWGR UME Bogie Flat Wagon – 40ft black tubes Having spent some considerable time repainting others models, this is another venture into building new rolling stock from scratch. They may not be the most detailed or totally accurate, but in the absence of other better models, I hope you enjoy running them on your NSW routes in MSTS – at least it gives a bit more variety and authenticity to your train workings. These models are for your personal use only, and may not be sold or distributed in any way without the original creator's permissions. =========================================== 2. Installation Notes Double click on the self-installer exe file and follow the instructions, as part of the installation a new folder called << AU_nswBogieFlatWagons >> will be created. Note: These wagons have been set up to work with the CTN bogie freight sounds, so make sure that you have them installed. You will need to create either a new consist to use these wagons, or add them to an existing consist. Consists are made, or edited, using MSTS Activity Editor or Carlos Gomes’s ConBuilder. =========================================== 3. Historical Notes Prototype information for these models has been researched from the following sources: “Day of the Goods Train”, Preston, Eveleigh Press, 2002 “Railway Freight Wagons of New South Wales”, Beckhaus, SCR Publications, 1970 =========================================== 4.
