V set – 6 cars (Sydney Trains)
The V set trains serve as part of NSW’s intercity fleet, linking Sydney with neighbouring regions and towns such as Newcastle, Lithgow, Wollongong, etc. These are deployed in 4 car, 6 car, and 8 car sets. I’ve already published the 4 car set, which I recommend for vanilla station.
The 6 car set is around 142m long. It consists of one 4 set, and another two engine cars attached to the end (lights disabled on the inner pair of engines)
This is not a line-coloured set, and I won’t be making one. However, keep an eye out for older liveries!
I wanted this one to be as much of an improvement to the K set as the Waratah was to the Tangara. In particular the K set came out looking very clean, so I wanted to focus on giving the train cars the weathered, stained look of years of passing through mountain tunnels, killing a million bugs, and corroding from aircon runoff, and I found some neat ways to pack that look in without jumping up in overall resolution. I also took a big step with the pantograph detail, and the tri count is a fair bit bigger than previous trains.
Note: The Additive Shader mod is only required if you want the blue light to light up, but it will work without it.
