Heavyweight Passenger Set: Lehigh Valley Expansion

Heavyweight Passenger Set: Lehigh Valley Expansion

It’s here! The heavyweight set!
This project is over a year old. I started this when I first started out modeling, and it grew and grew, and grew into a modular [for modders] set that has 6 different heavyweight cars.

A heavyweight passenger car got its name from its weight. These were much heavier than your standard passenger car, these provided a smooth ride for optimal comfort. They even used cement for the floor.

The Black Diamond prototypically used mini heavies, but these look better

Types included:
Baggage
Diner
Coach
Parlor
Sleeper
Observation Business Class
Some cool things about them:
Interiors with details
The baggage car has the visible load
Custom sounds by MrCheesecake
Couplers by Model Citizen
Group Listed under starter pack Pullmans
Start in 1915, Black Diamond available in 1937
Different prices and capacities based on seating capacity in prototypes
2k Textures to allow heavy use (eg: buy a metric ♥♥♥♥ ton) without overloading your average GPU
Couplers connect with MC’s hoses appearing connected

Disclaimer:
These are just a generic pullman heavyweight set, to be used where ever you choose. It was made with reskinning in mind so many railroads could be represented. It is not based on one specific train car, as many, many passenger cars differed in layout and style. So I grabbed what I saw on the internet and took ideas from that.

Planned Updates
Either in this mod or another, a combine, a second coach, RPO, and horse baggage car (80′ long baggage car)
