Reading Freight Pack

[gallagher]

I downloaded and installed the Reading Freight Pack. While I feel that the locos are very well done,I tested the them and found a few problems:

1. For the F3A's, F7A's FTA's, FTB's and the S1, I found that the
bounding boxes were too long. As a result coupling to other cars can be
very difficult if the bounding boxes on these cars happen to be on the
long side.

2. For the FA1's, FB1, RS3's and S1, the Derail Buffer Force is too
low. They should probably be set to around 595kN. In the downloaded
files they are set to 200 making derailment likely if the speed is above
4 mph when the coupling takes place.

I have attached my SD files for the engines in item 1.

Thanks, Bob. I'll check it out.

There is an easy way to fix that. All you need is BBEditor. It fixes bounding boxes and gaps between couplers. It can be found at the Train-Sim library.
