Hello RTR! operators.... I'm releasing my roster of CN Coalporters.... Here's both empty and loaded cars.... ....And here is the whole roster from 010 to 29....The first ten are empty, and the next ten are loaded.... www.mediafire.com/file/9bfrmxy80b0rngu/CN_Coalporter_roster.zip/fileHopefully, everything's in place, and you have what you need to start your coal drags out of the River Basin.... Enjoy M.T.

I have installed your models and have one issue.
The CNcoalporter11.x indicates using black-cement.dds and should be black-coal.dds.
I suspect models CNCoalporter11.x, CNCoalporter13.x, etc all have the same issue.
Thanks
Leon D

Hi Leond, thank you for downloading....
I didn't use coal texture patterns because they looked too big, and didn't represent what coal looked like in a loaded rail car. The black cement texture was more of what coal looks like in a hopper or gondola. I didn't want to take a chance of renaming the texture as to avoid a loading or checksum error. This is how I also coded the BN version coalporters...

This is how I also coded the BN version coalporters... Coal can have many different colours of black & darkgray, depending on sort of & light. I've used this dds-png for my BNSF coalhoppers after the picture below. I suppose there are differences between coal from anywhere in the world. It's also a matter of taste. -Boots127

True on that Boots. I looked for coal textures for the models but it seemed the patterns didn't fit scale-wise. It's a learning process. I can dig a bit more nextime to find what I need in model-making....
