Amtrak Bombardier / Alstrom HHP-8

Description
Sadly, this train was retired in 2014 after only 15 years of service, because of technical difficulties. But who cares in cities skylines?! ;)

This one can transport 420 cims with 7 cars - so it's to long for most stations. The top-speed is about 112 mp/h / 180km/h with a slightly better acceleration than the AEM 7.

By the way, my AEM 7AC train set had an update today :)

Have fun!

ANNOUNCEMENT: All trains released by now will get updates soon. those updates are including rescaling, decrease of file sizes, mesh edits and unifying looks. This is caused by comparison each to the other and trying to figure out a way to measure correct scaling (I do this using the light source values as they seem to be in meters).

I skipped the size thing as reducing the textures resolution just don't look really good - I tried this with the Acela.

So I've to find some other way around or have to release a "light" version at some point which has kinda lowres textures.

Anyway I hope that I can work on assets in near future again (I got still only limited time - but as there are many new possiblilities like vehicle effects I have to take a look again ;) )

Any progress in reducing file size? Very nice train but way too large a file to load compared to equivalents.

Are you going to do the ACS-64 one day?

This is awsome! Looks just like my HO locomotive

Ah, makes sense. Thanks for being forthright and I'll keep this as a favorite and wait for an update. Too many assets on my machine already, have to dole out the MB's to my RAM wisely. :) Thanks for the response Delta!

yes, those are 2k textures actually. I'll try to reduce the size on the coaches as half of the texture is unused, but this means some uv remapping so atm it stays as it is ;)

Wowsers, 27mb for this train? Are you using 2k textures? This is a huge file.
