Wooden Freight Cars

[destructulus]

These are a collection of wooden freight cars for early railroads. There is not really any balance with the costs, but I tried to make the weight and capacities reasonable.

• Stakecar: A flatcar with stakes for long goods.
• Boxcar: Boxed goods. The little door is supposed to look open when empty.
• Gondola: Bulk goods wagon. The variant for grain has a little tarp covering (in the secondary player color).
• Tankcar: Supposed to represent the common early practice of putting a cast-iron tank on a flatcar.

I hope these are enjoyable and fit with the pak. I have no idea how one goes about having things added to the official repo, but I'm happy to make tweaks towards that end!

You may test how they fit with pakset by yourself. Download PakHelper (or even TileCutter), newest MakeObj, copy *.dat files and *.png files - and after making pak files (and their moving to correct folder), just play to see if they fit.

I am now in year 1976 and it is a bit late for testing your vehicles.


When you would create electric vehicles, there may be problem with elevation of catenaries' wires. There are two sets - but both have wires very high upon surface (so, original trains and trams don't touch those wires at all).

Wires on my catenaries may be changed a little - but it would lead to need to change my trains and trams. But still original trains and trams would not touch wires at all. So, new electric trains (better fitting to catenaries height) are needed at all.
