Here at railworks2.ru we fol...Hello, Victory Works.<br />Here at railworks2.ru we follow your news, so the fact that you want to build this loco wasn't left unnoticed. As Tim van der Leeuw said, 200 locos of the class were built for the USSR. There they were classified as Шᴬ (ShA, 'Type "Ш" equivalent, American-built'). 193 delivered locos (6 were lost while being transported, 1 was never sent) were given responsible mission to move supplies to the front.<br />In 1957, 50 locos were converted to 1067 mm gauge and sent to the Sakhalin railway. Unfortunately, none of Soviet S160's made it to preservation.<br /><br />In the attached archive you will find photos and blueprints of the loco, and of coaches and wagons used during the war, collected by Vitya. If you will become interested, and want to get some more info on the class (what can be found on russian sites), or need translations (some blueprints are in russian) please contact me at artstar555777@gmail.com or facebook.com/Tembl4.pROssO.<br />Regards, Artem 'pROssO' Filonovich and the Russian Railworks Community (railworks2.ru).<br /><br />Link: https://yadi.sk/d/LYdDCnINepyP6Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15568614511851207130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3761688043165279543.post-20891226113018033822015-02-20T06:38:41.886-08:002015-02-20T06:38:41.886-08:00Not many of these were operational post-war on any...Not many of these were operational post-war on any routes currently commercially available...<br />I guess that some scenarios can be done on the S&D, war-time, same as done for the Q1.<br />For other liveries, some 30 locos were used by Austrian railways, and there's a route running through Austria (Three Country Corner Route); also the freeware Felberpass route. So an Austrian livery could be used on that route.<br />There's also a French route which I don't know much of but a French livery would be in place there.<br />Some of the East European countries were using them, and there's routes for TS2015 for those, so that's a few more candidates - Hungary, Poland, Chechoslovakia. I believe there's a number of modern day freeware routes for each of those countries.<br /><br />Further out there's Russian and a Chinese version that would be interesting.<br />Tim van der Leeuwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03920643351343637527noreply@blogger.com
