This is a texture and sound upgrade of the "VIA Canadian Pack" you can download here:
https://railworksamerica.com/index.php/download-library/rolling-stock-repaints?view=document&id=391:via-canadian-pack&catid=19:rolling-stock-repaints

I also included a repaint of the California Zephyr F40PH in Via Rail livery with the K3L horn and the Transtronic E-Bell.

Version 1.1 Change(s):

  • Corrected the cab occlusion on the locomotives. There should be an audible difference between the sounds inside and outside the cab.

Requirements

Train Simulator: Amtrak F40PH ‘California Zephyr’ Loco Add-On on Steam

The F40PH California Zephyr brings together one of the most famous names and one of the most recognisable shapes in US railroading for Train Simulator!

After installing all the required add-ons, now you can install this enhancement pack:

  1. Go to your Rail Works directory.
    (Typically: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RailWorks).

  2. Drop the "Assets" folder in the directory (Overwrite the previous version).

  3. Go to the "AmtrakPhaseIII" folder (Assets\RSC\F40PHPack01\RailVehicles\Diesel\F40PH\AmtrakPhaseIII) and copy the "f40ph.GeoPcDx" file.

  4. Paste the "f40ph.GeoPcDx" file inside the "ViaRail" and "ViaRailHEP" folders.

  5. If you haven’t done it already, make sure that you set "Ambient Occlusion" to, at least, the "Low" setting (Preferably "Dynamic").

Now, when you build a consist, you should see two versions of the Via Rail F40 locomotive, with and without driver:

  1. "EMD F40PH Via Rail" and "EMD F40PH Via Rail ND"
  2. "EMD F40PH Via Rail-HEP" and "EMD F40PH Via Rail-HEP ND"
    (HEP: Head-End Power)
