E 444 Ferrovie dello Stato "Tartaruga" versione "Shunt Chopper"
(for english version see below)
Original 3D model, engine e textures: Vittorio Dell'Aquila

Informazioni sulla locomotiva
Tra il 1974 e il 1981 due E444 (numero 056 e 057) furono trasformate con il dispositivo d'avviamento "Shunt Chopper, che permetteva un migliore avviamento e migliori prestazioni. Esteticamente le differenze si notavano sul tetto e sulle fiancate.

Installazione:

1. Scompattate il contenuto dell'intero zip file nella directory Trainset, controllando che winzip abbia il segno di spunta sulla casellina "Use folder names".
2. Dovete avere la CABVIEW della E444 nella sua directory originale; infatti questa loco ne sfrutta gli alias. Non necessita di suoni, in quanto gi fornita di alias per i suoni.
3. Create il vostro consist con l'editor di MSTS e guidate.

Un sentito ringraziamento a Giovanni Malerba per il suo suggerimento sullo scintillio dei pantografi.

Some loco info: between 1974 to 1981 two E444 were transformed with some electronically devices. Those locos (number 056 and 057) were different from the normal E444 on the roof and along the sides. The electronically devices allowed a better starting and a better traction.


Installation:
1. Unzip all in a Trainset folder, checking if Winzip has checked "Use folder names" box.
2. You must own the cab of normal E444 loco, in its own directory.
3. You don't need any Sound alias (I provided it).
4. With MSTS Editor built your consist and drive.
