G530-G538 G Class - Flatbeds (16)

Description
Today none of the G class locomotives in service use their original livery - the fleet was sold off to various logistics companies after the freight division of V/Line was privatised. This recreation presents both G530 and G538 in their present liveries. G538 was operated by Freight Australia, was later purchased by Pacific National, but retains the defunct company's livery.

The locomotives pull a train of 16 flatbed wagons (based on the VFTX wagon) carrying ISO shipping containers in 40' and 20' varieties, liquid tankers, as well as logs and long metal tubes. These use the Trailer Variation Loader mod to reflect the cargo of the train. It also auto-reverses the locomotive in the direction of travel.

Rather than stick with the "goods" and "materials" distinction I've just referred directly to the kind of wagon they pull. These are the same wagons from my earlier G class trains, shuffled in a different order.

Thanks to Koku - these liveries were a bonus on the G class items that I was keen to make, but you'd have none of them at all without his commission!

G530 (Pacific National)
9,896 / 274 tris
1024x1024 / 64x64 textures

VFTX (base wagon)
4,224 / 142 tris
1024x2048 / 256x128 textures
(Basically all the cargo shares the identical LOD set across every texture type - hopefully this means they should share materials and conserve space in the LOD atlas per LSM)

Thank you! I would have, I think the NR class is a more familiar sight to a Sydney resident (unless I'm thinking of something else), but this is the one I was asked to do, as a commission :)

These are really great assets! Been doing an Aussie build for a while now and I'm actually shocked that the C:S community made this one first before something like the NR class.

@Robert I very love your train but it is too short. I would like to have more realistic from your train.

Could you edit to 24 cargo for me? I like head color without multi.

Thank you very much
