USRA Standard Heavy Pack

-----===== HISTORY =====-----
When the United States joined the First World War, the railroads were nationalized, and the United States Railroad Administration was created. This administration created standardized equipment, including steam locomotives, as part of the USRA Standard. The steam locomotives it introduced were 0-6-0 and 0-8-0 switchers, a more versatile 'light' and a more powerful 'heavy' variation of 2-8-2 Mikados, 4-6-2 Pacifics, 4-8-2 Mountains and 2-10-2 Santa Fes, as well as 2-6-6-2 and 2-8-8-2 articulated locomotives. After its dissolution in 1920, some railroads continued building USRA derived designs, and a total of 97 railroads used locomotives based on the standard. Although over 3200 USRA based designs were produced, only around 24 exist today.

-----===== CUSTOM SPECS =====-----
These mods feature toggleable meshes to aid modders who don't have 3D modeling experience. For the smaller locomotives, there are 2 different bell positions, for more custom spec options. Bell1 is located near the smokebox door, and Bell2 is located on top of the mid boiler area. For the Mallets, there are 3 different specs, with 3 different smokebox setups. Spec1 and Spec2 have the bell near the smokebox door, and Spec3 has the bell located on top of the mid boiler area.

-----===== ADDITIONAL INFORMATION =====-----
All items have livery support. I grant permission and encourage RL modders to make liveries, spec edits and kitbashes with these mods, so long as you provide credit, upload them as train mod LIVERIES and don't claim them as your own. The purpose of this mod group is to provide modders with more 'generic' steam locomotive types to either recreate existing locomotives, or for fictional railroads.

This is the HEAVY version of the USRA pack, so it only contains the heavier locomotives. the LIGHT version can be accessed by this link: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3141712166

Along with this pack, I have made builder's plates and custom whistles from various railroads for you folks to use for this game, in whatever item you like. They're found in this link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1XpxcCrED0aMkVi_k2ipHLkyek_3eALRJ
Extract the obj and wav files into the custom assets folder to use them in mods and liveries. Credit is appreciated, but not required.

Big thank you to the Rolling Line Discord server members for helping me with testing, advice and ideas for this pack! These mods wouldn't have been as good without their contribution.

If you spot any errors with these items, please be sure to tell me about them in the comments. I will try to fix them as soon as possible.

Now that both USRA packs are out, I will work on these items next:

1. NYC Ghosts of the Rails Pack (various NYC Hudsons + Niagara redux)
1. Secret project (will release alongside the NYC pack, as a seperate item)
2. AC-12 Redux

These projects are fairly large, and I won't have as much free time to work on stuff for this game starting next month, so they might take a lot longer to come out. These will not be my last items, but I do plan on taking a longer break after they are done (No, I will not mysteriously disappear for 6 months again). Thank you for your comprehension.
