Description
Finally, a real workhorse!

Here we have the flagship 2-8-4's, the NKP Class S-2 and PM Class N-1, and as an added bonus, the Polar Express!

These super steamers came out in the mid '40s and while not near as powerful as some of the articulated locomotives of that time, they could haul fast freight and do it right.

A big thanks to MrCheesecake for the awesome sounds!

DT&I!!!!! Love it. Bought a new pc since my old one started to hate the game. Some DT&I GP40's or 38's or something fictional would be great. I can finally play this again! :)

Hey MeatballHero!
Having a Crash issue. Anytime i try to deploy any 2-8-4 the game crashes with an "an Error Has Occurred" Any idea? Let me know what i can provide to assist.

Mods been updated. Texture updates making the locos darker, fixed the Polar Express to white lettering, tender truck issues have been fixed on all the models affected, and i believe the Polar Express sound issue has been fixed.

I'll be adding LODs at a later date.

Hi meatballhero! The whistle still doesn't work.

Alrighty! Just to put it here for the record it, the option to blow the whistle doesn't show up.
