คำอธิบาย
Big engines seem to be a trend right now, so I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring. :X

Inspired by a design by George Henderson of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, this 4-8-8-8-8-8-4 cab forward, articulated boiler, quintuplex locomotive would never have worked in the real world - an earlier Triplex design that was actually built barely could reach a few miles per hour because it ran out of steam so quickly.

Thankfully (?) such a limitation does not exist in Transport Fever.

Obviously a lot of assets come from the vanilla Big Boy locomotive, so due credit to the devs for the model. Without it, this probably wouldn't have been possible.

Comes with tinting, aging, a placeable rail asset (because why the hell not), and a reversed version too. God knows why. There's also a Canteen/auxiliary tender included as well aging and a palceable rail asset.

There's no logo support at this stage - however, I plan on adding it. With this many components, it's a bit tricky to add something like that without breaking everything. >.>

Stats are as follows:

---

4-8-8-8-8-8-4 Quintuplex
Available 1941-1994*
Top Speed: 80 kmh
Power: 10000kw
Traction: 800kn
Weight: 1200t
Lifespan: 40 years

*-The original design and patent date back to ~1918, but I just didn't feel right about making this available before the Big Boy.

Like my mods? Then please consider sending a small donation to show your appreciation at https://www.paypal.me/GreenRanger - by no means should you feel obligated in any way to do so, but every little bit helps with various bills and living expenses and whatnot (and I'm sure you can appreciate, it can be tough to make ends meet!). Any money goes towards essentially helping me produce more models of better quality, and more quickly and efficiently. But, like I said, please by no means should you feel obligated to do so.

This looks magnificent. I always wondered what one of the larger planned steam locos would have looked like.

Why?

can i make a suggestion?, maybe add hook and chain couplings to the canteen to make US stock compatible with UK stock. like buckeye couplings on one end and british couplings on the other.

Thanks for your contribution to the modding community

@InfectTheNet: You think that's bad? Historically a Triplex was only good for about 5-15kph, max. xP

But if you want to change the stats, you'll want to go to Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\446800\1741620392\res\models\model\vehicle\train\usa\Quintuplex.mdl, open it in notepad and look for the line topspeed = 80. Change that to what you want in kph.

The canteen's got a top speed set at 96 so you may need to change that too depending on what you're setting it as - you'll find that in vehicle/waggon/usa/Quintuplex_Canteen.mdl.
