Description
BNSF with 24 Double Stack Containers and 2+3 Engines

Evolution Series
The Evolution Series is a line of diesel locomotives built by GE Transportation Systems (now owned by Wabtec), initially designed to meet the U.S. EPA's Tier 2 locomotive emissions standards that took effect in 2005. The first pre-production units were built in 2003. Evolution Series locomotives are equipped with either AC or DC traction motors, depending on the customer's preference. All are powered by the GE GEVO engine.

The Evolution Series was named as one of the "10 Locomotives That Changed Railroading" by Trains Magazine and was the only locomotive series introduced after 1972 to be included in that list.

The Evolution Series locomotives are some of the best-selling and most successful freight locomotives in United States history.

GEVO in Cities: Skylines
Despite some of you would consider me as a European-centric train maker on WS, GEVO is one of my favorite US locomotive of all times. It was originally planned to be made for Railway 2 release but I decided to focus on networks themselves, thus I abandonned the idea of making US freight train for the release. Evangeline later on proposed to make DDAX for the release instead. Last year I got the request of making GEVO again, but this time I decide to see it to the end.

GEVO took about 3 months of work that includes mesh and textures and it is one of the most complex train I did for CSL so far. I hope you like the final product just as I enjoyed making it.

This train was the result of the commission request by Da Boss Hoss, so thanks goes to them as well.

Container cars were also made by Nostrix, as a result of previous collab on DDAX.


Features
- BNSF version of ES44AC 'GEVO'
- 3 engines consist on forward motion, 2 if train is reversed
- Maxi IV double stack container cars, 24 units long.
- Container cars change order and repaint based on cargo type, that is possible via TrailerVariation mod by Access Violation.
- Directional headlights with Additive Shader.
- 1:1 scale, fits under R2 USA wires.

Texture and Material Share
- All engines share the same texture to improve your RAM performance.
- The final load on RAM should be around 12MB, if you already have containers from previous release.

Never noticed the "dummy" packs. Thank you kindly!!
Any chance you could do Canadian Pacific and Canadian National locomotives? :)

1. Do not use dummy consists, as I published cargo and dummy units separately thus you have the possibility of not using them
2. Use Advanced Vehicle Options and de-select "spawn this train" option for dummy trains.

This asset is a cargo train btw, not a dummy train.

Is there any way to limit these the BSNF cargo trains to actual cargo trains? My cities using them a passenger trains as well...

I was commissioned to make conrail repaint already, with same body frame as BNSF (so not an exact replicate of IRL), KCS is not sure, but SP wasnt paid so unknown at this point.

Conrail and UP repaints are waiting me to make new DOT tankers gonna start on them soon

i know it takes a long time to make these
THANK YOU for making these
i would like to see SP, KCS, & Conrail versions [heck-the SP can come in 3 different schemes: Kodachrome, Gray, Black Widow]
i know, i'm dreaming :D
