ZecRail is proud to bring you two special versions of the new Victorian Railways V499 locomotive (built in 1899 by Baldwin Locomotive works in America!) in a custom blue and gold livery, one decorated for Christmas 2019 and the other for regular trains!
V499 was built for the Victorian Railways by the Baldwin locomotive works in America in 1899, and was the pattern for a further 15 locomotives built by the Phoenix Foundry in Ballarat, Victoria. featured Vauclain Compound cylinders, and many new features never before seen on Victoria's railways, including air operated sanders, rocking grates, a dump grate, and a large cab with plenty of room for the crew!
Features include:
2 locomotives and tenders, with three optional levels of weathering (changed via the properties menu), in broad gauge for TRS19
Texture swapping with "clean", "lightly weathered" and "heavy weathered" options, with tailored parameters maps (TRS19)
