A way to get missing rolling stock into formation designer. The easiest way is to download them from creators club, which does not require any mods or editing files. They can be found here:

If you want to add them without using creators club, you can download the .pak files below and follow the instructions. Some minor hex editing will be required for this.

unsure did i install it correcetly. I tried downloading a couple paks and just put them in the DLC folder but then everything else shows as a TTC class 66.

Some appear as a TTC class 66 to trick the formation designer into letting you couple them together. Once you hex edit UGCFormations_0.sav they should turn into the actual rolling stock
