Ok people, I'm looking for the Conrail GG1 4800 done up in the '76 paint scheme that may be in another game such as TRAINZ This is one of many pics I have of it:

CR 4800.jpg

If anyone can find a free download of it either upload it here or post a web address of it for me.

Now that is tacky. Only way it could get any better is if they had added tassles.

[snoopy55]

Well they may have, of a sort. I've yet to see what the passenger cars it pulled looked like!

Anyway, the originator of the GG1 4800 is looking for it, I promised it, and right now I feel like doing it. In searching for new pics I found a good one of the Savings Bonds GG1:

USSB_921_b.jpg

And with a lot of painstaking searching thru my 2.14 Gb of files of all the work done by wingsofphoenix and I of just the GG1s, and rigging it to look like the real one (leave it to Conrail and Amtrak to jury rig a good thing) got it done:

BB_GG1_Amtrak_921.jpg

I'll be posting the finished engine shortly.

You, Lama_RT, should be working up a map for us using the GG1s and the passenger cars that wingsofphoenix worked up and are in the CK section. Or request someone to skin a set for you in a couple of railroads of the east coast you like.

Anyway, I'd still like some more pics on that GG1 if anyone can find them. If you upload them zip them. Saves space and anyone can download them to look at them.

Well, after much work , and much putting it off, I think I've finally gotten this thing done:

GG1_Conrail_4800_76.jpg

Just needs the screen shots for the routing and event. At 1:30 in the morning, that will wait til I fall out of bed and have my coffee.

I also have the blue Conrail 4800 finished:

GG1_Conrail_4800.jpg

(got to redo the screenshot on that......)

It will be posted with the 76.

The last two (unless others are requested or done) GE GG1 engines have been posted. See first post.
