As part of my Huntington ENR Yard project I required several different rolling stock options to use throughout the yard. It was an enjoyable challenge trying to make everything to a specific scale but be as realistic as possible. I am quite happy with the overall result and wanted to show them all off as well as a few other designs.

I also ask that is you use any of these in your own projects make sure to give credit. These may also by found on the 'Esterlon Community Server'. I have provided a bit more information on each of the vehicles below with some links if any one is interested in knowing more. Special thanks to Yazur as his truck designs influenced the HiRail Vehicles.
The EMD SD40-2 is a 3,000 hp diesel electric locomotive built by EMD from 1972 - 1989. The Canadian National Railway operated 123 of these engines.
The GE Dash 9-44CW is a 4,400 hp diesel-electric locomotive built by GE Transportation Systems from 1993 - 2004. The Canadian National Railway operated 228 of these engines.
The EMD SD70ACe is a 4,300 hp diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD from 1992 - current to compete with the GE Dash 9-44CW.
The EMD SD75M is a 4,300 hp diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD from 1994 - 1996 to compete with the GE Dash 9-44CW.
The EMD GP9 is a 1,750 hp diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD from 1954 - 1963. Many rebuilt GP9s remain in service today with shortline railroads and industrial operators. Some remain in rebuilt form on some major Class I railroads, as switcher locomotives.
The EMD F7 is a 1,500 hp diesel-electric locomotive built by EMD from 1949 - 1953. The F7 class has both an A unit and a B unit. The A unit contains the driving cab and control systems. These control systems are used to control the cabless B units.
Breakdown cranes, otherwise known as crane cars and wrecker cranes, are used in accident recovery work. Breakdown cranes are typically the largest types of cranes used on railroads as they need to be able to lift derailed locomotives and rolling stock back onto the track. Locomotives however usually require two or more cranes in order to be safely lifted back onto the tracks.
Plows such as this were either custom built or modified gondola/hopper cars. The car would be weighted as heavily as possible to help prevent derailments while allowing it to move larger amounts of snow. As plow cars like this are not self-propelled they require one or more engines for movement.
Boxcars are railroad cars that are enclosed and used to carry general freight. Due to their design boxcars are quite versatile, with some designs allowing for adjustable bulkheads, end doors, and double sliding doors for carrying larger items.
Tank cars are designed to transport liquid and gaseous commodities.
Bulkhead flatcars are designed with sturdy end-walls to prevent loads from shifting past the ends of the car. Loads typically carried are pipe, steel slabs, utility poles and lumber.
Centerbeam flatcars, centerbeams, center partion railcars, or lumber racks, are specialty cars designed for carrying bundled building materials such as lumber, wallboard, and fence posts.
Hopper cars come in two main variants, open hopper cars are used to transport loose bulk freight such as coal, ore, grain and track ballast while covered hopper cars are used to transport bulk cargo such as grain, sugar, and fertilizer when protection from the weather is needed.
Autoracks, or auto carrier, are specialized rolling stock used to transport automobiles typically from factories to automotive distributors.
Spine cars are articulated rail cars in sets of 3 or 5 used to transport either intermodal containers or semi-trailers.
Intermodal well cars, or double-stack car, are articulated specialty railroad cars used for transporting intermodal containers. The "well" is a depressed section which sits close to the rails between the wheel trucks of the car allowing a container to be carried lower than on a traditional flatcar. This makes it possible to carry a stack of two containers per unit on railway lines.
A caboose is a manned North American rail transport vehicle coupled at the end of a freight train. Cabooses provided shelter for crew at the end of a train, who were required for switching and shunting, and to keep a lookout for load shifting, damage to equipment and cargo, or overheating axles (hot boxes).

New Update : by AlphaRebel 03/26/2016 2:43:21 amMar 26th, 2016
This update brings a whole bunch of changes.
To start there's all new pictures! Many of these pictures show updated versions of several engines as well as some all new engines and rolling stock. There have been changes to the designs of all engines, specifically to the bogie assembly. New engines added include the EMD SD75M, EMD F7 A and B units and two unfinished steam locomotives. Changes to the rolling stock include longer boxcars, tankers, hoppers, and flatcars. Bulkhead flatcars now come in 3 different lengths and centerbeam flatcars have been given a new longer design. A new coach design has been added, the coach comes in 4 variations which are mail car, sleeper car, dining/buffet car, and your regular passenger car. The final 2 additions for this update are a new log car and a railroad breakdown crane.
With that said, these new additions and changes have been added to the world and the world download has been updated.
