Payware Steam Engines

[sgtmajor]

Okay.... Bruce directed me to 3DTrains which have some FABULOUS payware and freeware model Diesels.

Does anyone know of any payware steam engine sites with that type of quality; i.e., sounds, textures etc?

I'm looking for a very nice steam engine with all the bells and whistles. (no pun intended)

Steve,
There used to be a business a few years back that created some gorgeous pay-ware North American loco's, called "Train Artisan"....however, their "American Classics" might only be available now as a second-hand sale (eBay), as I don't think TA are still in existence.

www.trainartisan.com

There was also "North American Locomotive Works" (NALW),
nalw.macfall.com/releases.html
but their stuff is now available as freeware at train-sim.com.

Apart from those two, I can't think of any others.

Bruce..... right after I posted the above thread I started searching various links at other sites.

I found the "American Classics" at "Just Trains" and purchased it. ;D It is some very nice work indeed.

Thanks for the other information as I think I do remember "North American Locomotive Works." I'll have to check it out after a bit.... but got to get some yard work done first to keep the depot master happy.

Cheers,

Good for you, Steve.
I didn't know if it was still available new, which was why I mentioned eBay.

It's a great collection....you'll enjoy it, I'm sure.
