Hello Folks,

today’s asset is the first of my "generic"-series, where I release mostly line-colored vehicles without any city-specific features, details or labels.
Lead-off for this series is this CKD Tatra K2, the first serial produced articulated tram from CKD Tatra. Between 1966 to 1983, 569 of these vehicles were produced.

One noteworthy detail about my model is that, in contrast to the original, nearly all side-windows are of the same size. The original for some reason has different sized windows on the door-less side.
This tram is also the first to feature standard-gauge boogies, not the 1000mm ones I use for my other Tatra trams.

Make sure to give me feedback, report bugs you encounter or just type out your general thoughts on this tram, so I can use that feedback to improve the upcoming Tatra trams!

In-game:

This vehicle consists of three separate units, two passenger compartments (K2-A/K2-C) and a boogie/connector (K2-B) in between them.

The standard Tatra K2 trams never had doors on their left side, so you can’t use this tram for lines where there is tram stops on the left hand side.
I suggest looking into my "Tatra K5AR" if you want a similar tram with doors on both sides.

The trams max speed is just like the original, 60km/h (12 in-game).
The destination indicator on the front simply has my Logo on it, because a bit of watermark never hurt nobody.
All of the plating below the windows is color-mapped.
Indicator, head- and taillights are working.
If all your track turns have a bigger radius than 20 meters, this tram should corner them smoothly.

I strongly advise using the Loading Screen Mod to cut down on file size, as all three parts of the vehicle share the same textures.
If you want a prop version of the vehicle I advise you to use the Tree and Vehicle Props Mod and its Patch.
I don’t want to waste too much time on creating prop versions of each vehicle, so using this mod is the better option for now.
