No, more like a modern boxcar that just has the logo on it, and maybe something like the website, too.

Try TGA Tool…It converts the ACE files to a bitmap then use MS Paint to edit it…

How do you get the locomotive/car to recognize the .tga file. I tried reskinning the Auran DD40X from 6901 to 6936, but it won’t recognize the file. It still shows up as 6901.
