Heavyweight Passenger Set: Lehigh Valley Expansion

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 ;)

• Baggage
  
• Diner
  
• Coach
  
• Parlor
  
• Sleeper
  
• Observation Business Class

• Interiors with details
  
• Baggage car has 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 price and capacity 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

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 off one specific traincar, as many, many passenger cars differed in layout and style. So I grabbed what I saw on the internet and took ideas from that.
