Welcome to my Dieselpunk road train pack. Included are a locomotive (6 versions), 4 passenger consists, 3 freight consists, and a shunter. These can more or less be mixed and matched as you please. Enjoy!
The rear view camera can be zoomed in and out by pressing ctrl+1. Adjust the height of the trailer drawbars with F1 and F2. Always set your transmission to full auto. The trailers can be entered and have a Ringfeder coupling at the rear for daisy chaining (careful, the brakes on subsequent trailers will not work).

Notes
- The wheels may oscillate when stationary because they are optimised for low rolling resistance. Exercise caution when stopping or parking as they may creep.
- The long consists are extremely fps-hostile. Do not expect playable framerates with the longest combination unless your CPU is very powerful and has a very large cache.
- These vehicles are not designed to deform realistically in a crash.
- Except for the front and rear, collision meshes are disabled for performance reasons.
