Clinchfield GP38s

Also a big fan of Tyler's work and willingness to do basic changes to models to fit other roads. Very grateful for his work in the community.

Uploaded a few black variants of CRR GP38s tonight, this time 2003 (weathered) and 2009 (newly painted). This can be used as a standalone package of models, or installed in your other CRR_GP38 folder. Doing the latter will overwrite some files specific to these 2 units, so make back ups as needed. These will be the last ones I plan to upload in Clinchfield paint.

I have in mind to eventually make CRR sublettered Family Lines editions of some GP38s and SD40s, as only a very few of each were ever re-painted into that livery before the SBD/Chessie merger. But that will be a stand alone package, and I don't have a timeframe in mind as to when I want to do that project.

And fingers crossed that Trainsimulations makes a CRR version in a future volume of SD45s.

I just uploaded weathered versions of Clinchfield GP38s 2002 and 2005. 2005 features yellow number boards, and has lost its re-railers.

These are now uploaded. Since there were only 10 on the roster, I did all of them. They should appear in 3 different files, which I elected to do in order to make the uploads smaller. You can download any of the files as a stand-alone package and they should work just fine. Some files are shared between packages, so if you install more than one package (and install them to the default locations), it will alert you about an overwrite of some files. But the essential files are identical, so overwriting is OK.

I plan to upload another package at some point, with a handful of alternate paint schemes to represent some of the units later in their Clinchfield life. And, for anybody else who is interested....these units made it onto predecessor-CSX and CSX rosters, and these models may also be compatible with various Family Lines, Seaboard, and CSX liveries.

Tightened up the paint job, added some details. This has been a fun one!

Paint is done for the entire "as delivered" Clinchfield GP38 fleet; just running through some final testing. Hopefully get a package together for upload early next week. Not sure how many I will put up in this scheme because I also want to do some alternate paint options, and still trying to think about the best way to package/upload everything.

Man, that locomotive looks fantastic! Tyler has come a long way with building models, and I hope to see him expand his experience even further!

Tyler's work is top notch, and these look great!

Tyler Bundy did a bang up job putting this CRR-specific model together. The first paint to be released will represent newly-delivered locos in the grey Clinchfield livery, like class leader 2000. Future repaints will include the black livery and weathered versions of each livery.
