Algers, Winslow & Western EMD SD9 with Rolling Stock
Hello all! It's been quite a while, but I have returned with a replica of an Algers, Winslow & Western EMD SD9 locomotive as well as a variety of rolling stock including a Missouri Pacific Lines box car, a CSX Gondola car loaded with pipes, a UTLX tank car, a Grand Trunk Western flat car loaded with steel I beams, and a Union Pacific grain hopper car.
This train has the ability to couple and uncouple each car at will, allowing you to shunt the order of cars around to your heart's content!
LORE:
The SD9 is a six axle diesel electric locomotive manufactured by General Motors' Electro-Motive Division. It is powered by a 1,750 horsepower, 16 cylinder 567C prime mover.
The SD9 was the second model of EMD's Special Duty line of locomotives, it was essentially a lengthened GP9 with two more axles. This was done in an effort to achieve better tractive effort. It was manufactured January 1954 to June 1959 when it was replaced by it's successor, the SD18.
The Algers Winslow and Western railway was a Class III short line railroad that opened in 1926, it served the surface mining operations in Pike County, Indiana. In 2007, it was aquired by Norfolk Southern, but it continues to operate under the AWW name.
CONTROLS:
TRIM - Accelerates the locomotive.

Trains? TRAINS!?
TRAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIINS!!!!!
@JustDragon Good idea.
@JustDragon my goofy ahh xiaomi phone for some reason it can handle this with a somewhat moderate lag
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 lol 23k
@JustDragon maybe because of drag points?
however, for some reason the craft doesnt open in simpleplanes for me
not sure what's going on
would it be possible to just upload the cars by themselves? i really want to use them with my own train lol
@FasterThanLight Oh! no wonder why it bounces around like pinballs When it derails!
@FasterThanLight perhaps
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 Fun fact: I made it indestructible, so if you put anything in front of it, it will disintegrate everything in its path.
@FasterThanLight and also i had so much fun crashing and derailing this train in many ways! Here is the Image link thanks for making this FasterThanLight!
(also apologise for the terrible image quality since i'am on android 💀)
@MRM19 Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 Oddly enough, I don't even have a model of an SD9, or any of this rolling stock. I just kinda winged it. Lol.
Wow! This is absolutely beautiful! Amazing work!
@FasterThanLight no wonder why it looks like it was inspired by an ho scale model train!
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 Funny you should mention. I was digging though my HO collection when I was inspired to make this.
@FasterThanLight oh and also this train kinda reminds me of some kind of Ho scale train set...
@DatRoadTrainGuy19 Glad you like it!
@FasterThanLight Nice train my guy!
@Sparky6004 Thank you very much!
