    I just got announcement ingame that 2-8-2 Mikado is available. When I checked my train depot, I noticed it’s not available. I checked the .mdl file and found out the end year is same as introduction. I can fix it easily but everyone don’t have knowledge how to do it. Nasty typo there I guess 🙂

    Is it a mod or a train added with the usa dlc?

    It came with the USA DLC, I have no mods, yet.

    Yes, I had the same thing last night but thought it was time to goto bed before I fixed it!

    You need to go here – C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Train Fever\dlcs\usa_1\res\models\model\vehicle\train

    Then open the heavy_mikado file (use notepad) and look for the to and from years. Change the second year to something more apropriate and save.

    Im glad it worked, don’t be tempted to change the vehicle’s price or running costs when you’re in there, that’s cheating1 :p

    Also i recommend changing the end date to 1945 or a little bit after, from my research that is the year where the use of the Milkado declined IRL

    Is this another thing that require a new save/game?

    I changed the value to around 1868 or something, cause ppl said here,, but now when i got to 1898 the train was announced and not in the list of stuff to buy in the depot =D

    oh well 😀

    Thats because you changed the end date to be BEFORE the start date! No wonder it’s not in the depot. I changed mine to 1948, seemed about right as a guess.

    I would also like thank you for the fix.

    Its was odd because the start and end date were both 1898.
