IMPORTANT: You must have the 'DASH9' and 'GP38' folders in the 'TRAINSET' folder with all of their sound files intact so that
your new locomotive can use some of those sounds. If you altered these folders, you will need to reinstall Microsoft Train Simulator.  
If you want to check it, it should be here>  ../Train Simulator/Trains/TRAINSET/DASH9/SOUNDS and ..GP38/SOUNDS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

TRAILING UNITS  VS.  LEAD UNITS

Do not place a trailing unit at the front of a train(as the lead engine). If you attempt to run a TU locomotive as the lead loco, the simulation will not load properly. That's why it has a unique name in the activity editor (i.e., 'TU SP #7505') so that you don't 
confuse them with other locos in the locomotive list.

TU locos work well as idle units on a siding etc., and will throttle up when coupled by a drivable unit.

Installation: 
1.Extract the folders from this .zip into a temporary location. 

2.Copy and paste,or click and drag, the locomotive folder(s) into your 'TRAINSET' folder 
                    > Programs/Microsoft Games/Train Simulator/trains/TRAINSET directory.
3.Build your consist using the MSTS Activity editor.
