A TYPICAL TRAINCAR KIND MAY HAVE THE FOLLOWING TAGS:
traincar kuid kuid trainz-build data category-class data category-region data category-era data username data kind data engine kuid mass data description data enginesound kuid hornsound kuid enginespec kuid pantograph kuid company data interior kuid mesh-table default mesh file auto-create data shadow mesh file bogeys 0 bogey kuid reversed data 0 bogey kuid thumbnails 0 image file width data height data
TAGS AND CONTAINERS
The following tags are further defined in Chapter 5:
- kuid
- Generated automatically by Content Manager.
- trainz-build
- Automatically set to 2.9 for 2009 assets.
- category-class
- See the "Motive Power" section of Category Class.
- category-region
- See Category Region for a list of valid category-region values.

- mass
- Mass in kilograms, ie "7000" (roughly 7 ton).
- description
- Description of model which is used for the `Railyard' information.
- enginesound
- References the kuid number for the traincar's sound asset.
- hornsound
- References the kuid number for the traincar horn sound asset.
- enginespec
- References the engine kuid number. This specifies the driver physics boundaries for the traincar.
- pantograph
- The pantograph kuid number inserted at a.pant0, a.pant1, etc. Use this tag only when needed.
- company
- The Locomotive or car owner, eg "QR".
- interior
- Kuid number of the interior, inserted at a.cabfront. This tag should only be used when required (an interior is needed when the traincar is a locomotive).
"mesh-table" Container
- default
The main traincar mesh.
- auto-create
- Specifies that this mesh is automatically created (visible without needing to resort to a script).
- shadow
The mesh model to be used as a shadow.
"bogeys" Container
The bogeys container stores the bogeys used for the loco\rollingstock item.
Sub-container 0' fixes a bogey to attachment a.bog0, sub-container 1 fixes a bogey to attachment a.bog1 and so on.
Bogey Sub-Containers
Each bogey is specified as:
- bogey
The bogey kuid number
- reversed
- Ticking this box in CCP will make the bogey have a reversed orientation. Note: This will cause bogey animation to play in reverse, unless attachment points are rotated 180 degrees. Affects the direction of the bogey, relative to the traincar.
See Chapter 7 for an example asset of this kind.
