FS25 Railroad Rolling Stock v1.0.0.1

This is my railroad rolling stock converted to FS25! Not everything has been converted yet, but will be eventually. CHECK THE DEVLOGS FOR NOTES ON WHAT WAS ADDED/CHANGED IN THE MOST RECENT UPDATE.
Here is a quick guide for setup with an explanation below:
Store deliveries mod to spawn rolling stock next to track.
Some kind of extra strength to place rolling on track (I recommend LUMBERJACK), with invisible wheels in the middle between the rails. Connect a locomotive and unfold the rolling stock.
For all of the rolling stock, I use the store deliveries mod to spawn it next to the track, then I use super strength to place the railcars on the track. I recommend LUMBERJACK mod as it is capable of lifting the rolling stock if you change the settings in game. Anyways, there are invisible wheels in the middle of the front and rear axle of every truck. Those invisible wheels sit down in between the rails and thats what keeps them on the tracks. the trucks will sit on the tracks as they should. Once you have the rolling stock on the tracks correctly with the invisible wheels between the tracks, you can connect a locomotive to it. You then must hit the “fold” function to unfold the rolling stock. This will allow the trucks to turn as they should and allow them to follow the rails correctly. All rolling stock can be connected from either side, except for the passenger cars and the intermodal cars. Those can only be connected when they are all facing the same way. This mod, like most of my mods is a big WIP. I add stuff as I think of them and I am constantly tweaking and updating it. As always, let me know if you have any suggestions or feedback.

Thank you for sharing your detailed guide on setting up the railroad rolling stock in FS25! It's great to see your dedication to converting and improving the rolling stock for the game. The use of the Store Deliveries mod for spawning the rolling stock next to the track and the recommendation of the LUMBERJACK mod for extra strength to place the railcars on the track are helpful tips for players looking to use your rolling stock in their gameplay.

The concept of invisible wheels in the middle between the rails on the front and rear axles of the trucks to keep them on the tracks is a clever solution to ensure proper alignment and movement along the rails. Connecting a locomotive and using the "fold" function to unfold the rolling stock for correct movement and turning adds a nice touch to the realism of the gameplay experience.
