SR Lord Nelson 4-6-0

Description
Southern Railway
Lord Nelson-class 4-6-0

So, it's been a while. I moved into my own place in Feb, and all of the craziness of getting set up on my own put modding on the backburner for a while, and honestly I was starting some....insanely big and ambitious projects that just weren't coming together, and I just wasn't having much fun with it all.

But! The dust has now settled somewhat, and I've had the itch to do some modding lately, and this *had* started out as a fairly small mod with a couple of alternate liveries, but I don't know when to stop, and now there's like 66 options to choose from...

Anyway. I'm really happy with how this one turned out. I hope you are too. Enjoy!

Labels!

Some of my mods have a few custom labels that are used, and I'll try to explain them here.

In the train name, the first set of numbers will display as the vehicle number on the locomotive. Unfortunately due to technical restrictions, all locomotives will share the same number.

-Use [] parenthesis to display the TRAIN NAME (ie naming the train 'Train 1 [BRIGHTON BELLE]' will show the text 'BRIGHTON BELLE' on the name boards on coaches - ie the roof boards of Pullman coaches.

-Use {} parenthesis to display the LOCOMOTIVE NAME - ie on the HR Clan class, naming the train 'Train 1 {Clan Campbell} will show the name Clan Campbell on the locomotive.

-So for example, on a Pullman train headed by a HR Clan class, you can name the train '49 {Clan Campbell} [Scottish Belle]' then the locomotive would display number 49 and Clan Campbell as the locomotive name, while the Pullman coach boards will display Scottish Belle. Make sense?

-The headboards on some DMU and EMUs will show the route or line number. So if you label the route 'line 14' ,then 14 will show on the headcode box.


Features

-All locomotives come with the following liveries:
-SR Maunsell-era Eastleight Green
-SR Maunsell-era Ashleigh Olive*
-SR Bulleid-era Malachite Green
-SR Wartime Black
-BR Early (crestless) Malachite Green
-BR Early (crestless) Unlined Black*
-BR Late (second crest) Lined Green
-BR Late (second crest) Lined Black*
-BR Late (second crest) Unlined Black*
-BR Late (second crest) Lined Blue*

*-semi-fictional or possibly semi-fictional - these liveries were used, but not necessarily by Lord Nelsons. But who doesn't like options?.

-Full aging and recolour support. Detailed dirt and rust accumulates as the engine ages.
-Engines are sorted in depot menus to reduce purchase menu clutter.
-Small file size and .dds compressed textures, to help with load speed.
-Placeable rail assets allowing placement of the engine in all variants, as well as pre-aged placeables.
-Head and tail lamps change depending on direction.
-Moddable engine numbers - edit the name & number of the train and the number will display on the side of the locomotive (see the Labels section for more info!)

Enjoy!

@H&W 38 Trainz I've got something in the works at the moment. Stay tuned!

@Norfolk_Chris: That's the plan, but it's too early yet to make promises. Tpf3 could be easy to port mods to, or it could be a whole lot of work. At the very least it looks like the lighting will have to be fixed and adjusted for ever locomotive under the new system, so it could take some time to get everything across and working properly depending on how much changes under the hood.
