Auxiliary Water Tender for the C&O Class H8 Allegheny Steam Locomotive

The BETA version of the auxiliary tender is now available for downloading.  An updated version will be posted when its available.  Feedback on the model is welcome in this thread at the N3V Trainz forums.

This is a fictitious model of a C&O auxilary tender than never existed.  I created this model using meshes and textures created by Simon van de Laak along with meshes I created myself in Gmax. This aux tender is designed for use with Ben Neal's H-8 and requires the tender trucks from his model. Ben's original Trainz H-8 files can be found at http://steammachine.com/bdaneal/ -- the aux tender files can be found (here) at http://wvrailroads.blogspot.com/.

The BETA version of the aux tender can be downloaded here (Google Drive).

A special "freshly painted" reskinned version of Ben Neal's H8 Trainz model (shown below) is also being made available for Trainzers who might wish to run the H8 in excursion service.  Who knows? Maybe someday an H8 will be restored, in which case an aux tender would probably come in handy on long excursions. :)
