Description

The EMD GP30 is a 2,250 hp four-axle diesel-electric locomotive built by General Motors Electro-Motive Division of La Grange, Illinois between July 1961 and November 1963. A total of 948 units were built for railroads in the United States and Canada.

It was the first so-called "second generation" EMD diesel locomotive, and was produced in response to increased competition by a new entrant, General Electric's U25B, which was released roughly at the same time as the GP30. The GP30 is easily recognizable due to its high profile and stepped cab roof, unique among American locomotives.] A number are still in service today in original or rebuilt form.

This pack includes 6 reskins in the As-Delivered scheme:

EMD Demo
Great Northern
GM&O
NYC
Santa Fe
Union Pacific

All are from 1962+
Max Speed 75mph
Horsepower: 2250

Enjoy the mod, reskin kit is available on request

This has been a mod a long time in the making, I ended up making the whole mesh from scratch, then deciding it was not good enough and starting over, 4 times before I thought it was good enough. A future update will bring some more details along with a High-hood, B unit and Slug unit versions, along with SP, NKP and Rio Grande details

Thanks for the info about La Grange, because I have a map with the town of La Grange in it, so I plan on making a giant diesel locomotive shop there now, again, thanks for the info!

is there a way to switch these to use turbo 645 sounds? having a GP30 fleet with non-turbo engine sounds bothers me much more than it should lol

The forward-facing UP unit clashes with / gets replaced the forward-facing GE Dash-8 40B of this mod https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2110236165 after being loaded. The forward-facing UP GP30 entry is gone, too. The backwards facing versions are still available.
As I don't know how that can happen I'll post it on both modpages. There isn't any error with the modnames in it in the stdout.txt.
