Changelog:
3.0: Due to goverment funding Brown Streak was able to open a branch of locomotives and train cars exclusively for this state, the "San Andreas Regional". This means you'll see way more passanger trains now. They were also able to introduce the duplex passanger coaches into the area.
- Revamped the classic Streak loco and moved the old model to the classic San Andreas livery, only spawning on a single train config
- Remade the default freight from the ground up
- Added a proper hopper car
- Added duplex passanger cars along with a matching cab
- New liveries for some old passanger cars/locos
- New bogies for all passanger coaches
- Some minor fixes
2.0: Added 4 new models ad 11 new config files. I've also informed the LS metro train that it can't fly.
About:
Ever thought the single freight engine looping around San Andreas non-stop was a bit boring? Well, I certainly have, so I made a couple more of them, with some more functionality and variation. I've also included some new sounds to spice trains up a bit.
I also brought back Brown Streak, with a brand new engine and a new livery.
Approximately 25 models are included in the pack, with 97 brand new train configs the game can choose from.
Recommended/Related mods: (Independantly updated; Might be incompatible after update)
Railroad Engineer - Script mod which lets you take control of the trains.
Extra Lore Friendly Liveries - Adds a couple of railroad companies alongside the Brown Streak trains.
Populated Railways - Simple menyoo mod that puts some of the trains from this mod onto the sidings of San Andreas.
Features:
- 8 new locomotives and 2 cab cars. Complete list of new engines
- Each model has detailed LODs.
- 99% of the models support liveries, with templates and AO included.
- Every engine has a unique light configuration, which means after a while it's easy to tell what type of train is approaching at night, just by the lights.
- J10 Railroad Engineer config file included.
- Passanger trains are back, and stop at various stations across San Andreas.
- Improved track file, which fixes some notorious train track misplacements and also improves track quality, mostly in the city.
- Brand new sounds!
- Way longer trains than default.
- Compatible with the LA Subway mod.
FAQ:
Q: I get a crash on start-up after installing the mod, what do I do?
A: Make sure you've installed a custom gameconfig file. If you did, and it still crashes on load, make sure you placed the dlc folder into the right place.
Q: I get a crash when I go near the train tracks, why?
A: Usually this is caused by the game not being able to find the custom models, but still trying to spawn them on the tracks.
If this happens to you, try to spawn the model called "freightdef" with a trainer and see if your game crashes. If it does that means you probably didn't mount the dlc correctly.
Known issues:
- Freight trains will also stop at stations, sometimes even staying stationary for more than 10 minutes. To my knowledge this can not be avoided.
- NPCs are not able to navigate off the streak coaches. I'm open to suggestions on fixing this.
- The Player will not fit down the stairs on the coach. To counter this, Jump, and while in mid-air press your attack key. (R by default.)
- Apparently the mod causes the game to crash when loading earlier save games for some people. So if that happens to you try uninstalling this mod.
That's about it, hope you enjoy the mod as much as I enjoyed working on it! View topic on GTA5-Mods.com Forums »

@Amtrak America I personally never tested, but others have said the models cause issues with FiveM:
September 18, 2018 -
@Walter That's a shame. They are beautiful models. Have you thought about making more mods or are you finished?
September 22, 2018 -
@Amtrak America At the moment I don't have any plans, but if I get an idea I'll definitely work on updating this further.
September 22, 2018 -
@Walter Sounds awesome. I know the server was really bummed it didn't work.
September 22, 2018 -
@Walter @Benefactor69 @Alfa1561 I found the issue, I suspect the trains.xml is too long, as I am not sure what the cutoff is I just moved the metro configuration and the metro group configuration to the top (e.g. Metro Group right above Freight Group and Metro Config right above the Freight Confgis), this fixed the issue.

Update: After reordering the metro consist I saw a train of the freight group (A pacific surfliner style consist) that was at the wrong height above the track and with all cars glitched into one. There indeed seems to be a max length after which consists get bugged.
September 28, 2018 -
@martinsstuff Out of curiosity, what seems to be the maximum length? I'm assuming it's not based on the number of configs, but the lines in the text file. Either that or the size of the file.
September 29, 2018 -
@Walter Very nice mod! I like trains! Could you possibly add compatibility with "Freight Extended" and "Metro Ride Free Cam"? I can't figure out how to do this… Thank you so much!!
October 07, 2018 -
@The_Gibson21 For Freight Extended, you just have to use that mod's trains1.dat, and not this one.
As for the metro, you just have to replace all entries for the metro config in this mod with the ones from tall70's mod and you're good to go, I think. I haven't actually used that mod myself.October 07, 2018 -
hello im sorry if this is a dumb question but does this conflict with the story mode? during that get on the train mission with trevor
October 08, 2018 -
@TheGamerJustin Not a dumb question, and theoretically it shouldn't. No custom trains will spawn during the mission, but it should still be playable.

Hi!, I'm curious why the train doesn't stop at various stations (like your description), I started near Franklin's house 1 and followed the Genesis 1 full lap
I'am using Railroad Engineer, then your mod, and Extra Lore Friendly Liveries
November 09, 2018 -
@Walter Hello. could you make a traincar with two traincars. i dont found another way to spawn more than 100 traincars at the same time. When i spawn 100 traincars i could get now 200 cars because one traincar includes two models.
November 30, 2018 -
@Walter Hello. the distance between the freight wagons and the locomotives is sometimes too wide or too low. what I also noticed is that the couplings have different heights. that's not so nice with such a perfect mod.

@walter. hey. so followed the step by step instructions but each time a train passes, its the original model. any particular reason the mod isnt spawning the new trains?
9 days ago -
@Walter I found the texture problem in your Freightstack model. If you would release the model for editing as you did then, I would have been able to fix the problem long ago. If you are active again have a look at the forum topic of this mod;D

Did the one tram thing get fixed? It seems that the fix mentioned above breaks the freight trains if the metro lines are moved

Please read the FAQ section of the description if you have an issue before posting a comment about it. If your issue is not listed in it, or the mod is still not working after you looked thru it, feel free to @ me and I'll try to help.
