Hi-
Just received the Chessie System CD and the set is quite impressive,

however

Two small problems:

The B&O 3554 ai unit calls the shape file gp35_bo3545.s (line 6) when it should be ...3554.s
and the B&O 7402 unit, I think, needs its lighting posistions double checked. Some of them are a bit off.

But other than that, A Great Set!

Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into these issues.

I just bought this set and I got the same thing. When I open the gp35_bo3554ai.eng file in sview, nothing shows up. I see you them this back in May and I just bought mine in Dec and they didn't do anything about it. Hmm.

I also noticed on the gp35_bo3554 and a few others that the top of the handrail is inside out. That shows up on a few other engines too along with the grab on the hood and sides.

All in all, it's a good set. I think they should put a note about the bad engine since they aren't going to fix the error.

It sounds like your installation wasn't completed -- I suggest trying to run the installer again. If you are still having difficulty I will send you the .s file.

Thanks for the offer Chip but I just changed the reference to the correct .s file and it's all good. Although I wouldn't know about the problem if I didn't read forums. Atleast I was able to remedy the problem with minimal effort.
Thanks, I like this engine set...

This is what the first few lines of the gp35_bo3554ai.eng file looks like. The WagonShape is wrong.
