PGA Wagon Pack

Thank you for downloading this wagon pack for Train Simulator Classic. This is a wagon that was made during the early days of TSRollingStock and it never got to see the light of day – until now!

Pulled from the archives is this small but detailed addon representing a specific type of PGA aggregates hopper built in the 1980. Due to this being an older, less refined wagon pack we decided to make it available for free until a more up to date model is produced. This free pack models the PGA hopper design PG013F as built in 1980 by Procor. Confusingly, this wagon also seemed to be referred to as PG013E in the early days. There are two liveries (VTG white and ECC blue) as well as various levels of weathering. In their original blue livery, the wagons could be seen on stone trains from Croft Quarry in Leicestershire. In more recent times, they have seen wide use on aggregates services in a VTG white colour scheme from South Wales, Kent, Leicestershire and more. The wagons were scrapped in 2019.

What's Included:

PG013F wagons in VTG and ECC liveries
2-3 variants of weathering accurate to real life images
Randomised graffiti tags on some liveries
Loaded variants
Flashing battery taillamp

Requirements:

Armstrong Powerhouse Wagon (4 Wheel) Sound Pack (non essential but required for sounds to play)

European Loco & Asset Pack (used for couplings, most users will have this already)

Credits/Acknowledgements:

Amaar Robinson – air hoses
Bradley Milligan – modelling for a few parts
FreeExtractor – great open source installer software

I also would like to acknowledge all the wagon photographers on Flickr as well as LTSV Rail Data for useful reference photos and information. In addition, I’d like to thank Barrowmore Model Railway Group for the availability of their wagon drawings.

Thanks for letting me know, I'll try to remember next time. Nice work with the ARC reskin too - reason I didn't include this is because it's for a slightly different diagram with different suspension but as you mention its a good stop gap.

Thank you! I'll probably make a few more over the next days just out of boredom (Similar Diagrams). Wanted to explain the stop gap part a little further (mentioning until you maybe did work on some new ones) but thought only saying that would get the point across well enough. And yeah I'm aware, but you know what they say, better than nothing. Had all these data panels and labels around from something I was doing so thought I'd reuse them on this while I was at it. Really happy to hear you think they're nice though!

Hi, any chance you could update the Wagon to remove the .baks file. Fred

Hi, in the next update I will remove them but its not worth repackaging and going through the approval process to remove them. They shouldn't cause any problems for you.

yeah, It's just a backup file of the bins really. Manually deleting them is also an option but at the end of the day the don't take that much space either way.
