Here it finally is! The Bombardier ALP-45DP dual powered locomotive.
It comes in two different liveries, AMT (Canada) and NJT (USA).
Both a version of the locomotive in diesel and in electric mode is available, only difference are the sounds and the removed exhausts on electric version.
Please carefully read the instructions BEFORE posting useless questions:
Spawning:
Use the train spawner placed on the map (small building where it says "Trains") or place it on a straight track piece via the .terrn file, DO NOT spawn in the truck spawner this will not work.
Controls:
The ALP uses default truck controls. Always stay in automatic-transmission, it will not shift in the second gear!
F5/F6: to rais or lower the pantograph.
CTRL + 1: change directional lighting
CTRL + 2: front ditch lights
CTRL + 3: front lights
CTRL + 4: rear ditch lights
CTRL + 5: rear lights
CTRL + 6: wipers
(Un)Coupling:
The knouckle couplers couples other trains (using the same coupler, of course...) like other ALP's automatically. When coupled, both carriages are connected to each other ingame. If you want to uncouple two carriages, you need to unlock couplers on BOTH carriages in between you want to uncouple. The ALP has a small lever next to the rear knuckle coupler (with a lock/unlock-sign next to it) that can be grabbed by mouse. Pull to "unlock" position on both carriages and done. Not that complicated.
Thanks to:
sputnik_1 - Without him this would not have been possible. He made trains actually work in Rigs of Rods (as you will see after reading this and testing the locomotive), outgoing from donoteats basic layout design. Furthermore he helped a lot with tweaking the ALP, to make it drive as good as it does. Many many thanks mate!
donoteat - He once had the idea to bring trains to RoR and made the great layout we are now using.
And thanks to the inveted members who tested this!
Update:
Added ropables so it can now be lifted with a crane.
Errors:
Game might crash when you want to couple two ALP's, to avoid this disable high quality refelctive effeckts!
Here is a less repetitive siren to replace the default.
I forget what exact siren this is, but this sound clip includes:
-Wail
-Yelp?
-2 horn honks
&
-Powercall (who doesn't love powercall?!)
When played behind the roaring engine of your favorite police car, this siren will bring your code 3 responses to life!!!
This vehicle has been updated with a more reliable transmission configuration as well as a more realistic flare setup to resemble actual light patterns.

So this is the new version of the "highliner" double deck EMU, commonly found on the Metra Electric lines in Chicago. This is a 2 car arrangement only. 4, 6 and 8 car versions are in development however, there seems to some issues with nodes2 and slidenodes.
Features:
-Working Doors F5/6/7/8
-Working Pantographs F9/10
-Custom Sounds
-Unfinished Cab Interior
-Flares
-Realistic(ish) acceleration and top speed
Installation & Safe Usage:
-Place the file "highliner.zip" in the packs folder.
-Don't drive round very sharp corners over 30mph.
-Don't try and switch tracks over 50mph.
-Don't try and couple this to any other train. I know it's tempting but it's an EMU you idiots.

-To spawn on train valley add this line to the .terrn:
this car i made that doesnt use a engine to drive but a rotator
this car is made on a working concept from Lifter
(Clutch-and-vario-differential-working-in-ROR)
have fun with it all needed controls are in T menu
before you try to drive it with the uparow put it in N and not in gear it will stall
idea by Lifter
N/B made by Pfuu
i really want to make .mesh but i cant get the needed plugins to work to inport the N/B or the export plugin to export to .mesh
if somebody could help me with this PM me

A pack of flatcars (standart 40ft, bulkhead 40ft and heavy weight 8-axle), all come with different skins.
The couplers can be locked/unlocked (both sides like on my ALP!) with the bigger lever at one end, on the other end there is a lever for the handbrake. Grab those with the mouse, you do not need to enter the waggons
Known bugs:
If you enter a flatcar through the vehicle selection menu game will crash if you try to exit the flatcar, simply change into another enterable vehicle via the menu and exit there.
Thanks to:
sputnik_1 for helping me with adjusting the node/beam.
Terrain description:
This is a desert island, it has no roads but tracks are marked with washed-up logs. There is a few very small settlements dotted around the island.
You start on a peninsula in the midde of the bay and drive across the sunken bridges to get to the island.
You'll need a decent offroad car as there's a section where the track dips underwater, and quite a few large mounds in the roads (where I didn't quite do the heightmap right lol)

LJFHutch: Every single non-default object in the terrain (most of the objects I have taken from his Greece map).

F1 Terrain Creator: V1.2 uses trees from the F1 Test Track.
Enjoy.
V1.2
Some fixes and improvements to the island. For the full list of all the edits read the readme. The main edits I've made is to the sunken bridges on the penninsula (I've got rid of the log section since that caused some problems when you drove over it) and added a couple more tracks and buildings. Also added some crops to the farmers field so it's not just green ground any more.
Never released Versions 1.1 - 1.19 because I didn't think there was a big enough change to justify a reupload, so this is the first update. Please tell me if I've screwed anything up that was correct in V1 and I'll fix it.
This works best with 0.38.67. If you use 0.39 there may be some extra bugs (e.g. I had a lot of collision problems when I tested with anything newer than 0.38.67) and things may not look quite right. No fixes are planned for obvious reasons (0.4 is going to be the next release, not 0.39).
*PLEASE DELETE THE OLD ZIP (Zyk.zip) BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD THIS ONE!*
This is The F-150 Raptor SVT from Ford.
Has leaf springs at the rear with some really nice travel. on the front double A arms for each wheel with fair amount of travel.
real fun to cruise. has tow hitch for towing thingies.
Not much of exciting look since it is only N/B chassis but i find those kind of trucks most pleasing.
HAVE FUN.
It can load 1x 40', 45' or 48' are also possible, but that may result in too much front and rear overhang and then the container might hit the tractor unit.
The other possibilities are 2x 20', 1x 20' in the middle or at the end with retracted chassis back.
You can extend and retract the rear end to fit different containers on, and it is possible to adapt the suspension to different heights and loads,
the command keys show up in the ingame preview.
There is also a version with two containers fixed to the trailer for people who don't bother loading or unloading it.
If you want to reskin it please use the GUID system and skinzip files, then you can upload your skins to the repo.
Don't modify anything else or use parts of it on other models without my permission please.

Here is the first US rolling stock, so you can finally tow some waggons with my ALP.
A loadable 40ft boxcar, comes in several liveries.
You can open the doors by grabbing the levers at the doors, the couplers can be locked/unlocked (both sides like on my ALP!) with the bigger lever at one end, on the other end there is a lever for the handbrake. Grab those with the mouse, you do not need to enter the waggons
Known bugs:
If you enter a boxcar through the vehicle selection menu game will crash if you try to exit the boxcar, simply change into another enterable vehicle via the menu and exit there.

donoteat, maddrix for skins
sputnik_1 for helping me with adjusting the node/beam.
This is a mod to box5's goose neck. I made it shorter and made it have two axles. The mod was simply to make it look better when hauling stuff around. In my opinion the normal one is a little large.
Original trailer is box5s
Mod by me
And i know the mod isn't perfect. May over write the old one.
