T set "Tangara" – 8 cars, SRA livery (Sydney Trains)
The T set, or "Tangara" debuted in 1988 and remains a key part of Sydney’s train fleet. Like all of Sydney’s trains it features double-decker seating, so I have set the capacity of both control car and passenger carriage at 80, which is more than double the default train, and still less than the true capacity (as anyone who has crammed into one at peak hour can attest).
I have revisited this set six months after its original publishing and applied lessons learnt since then. The texture is 1/4 the original, and the diffuse is much dimmer so the colours aren’t as blown out.
Update by Jenper: The new updated Tangaras now require Additive Shader to show their new front and rear headlights, they may work just fine without it but there’ll be no lights. Some other notable changes are the new wheels and updated Sydney Trains logo.
This model cannot be line-coloured, and is styled in the original livery of the State Rail Authority (prior to Cityrail)

The SRA T set items on the workshop (4 car, 6 car, 8 car) all use the same textures for both passenger and motor cars. Using this essential mod can save on texture loading time.
