    Hey I recently bought the Armstrong Powerhouse Class 43 VP185 Enhancement pack for Train Simulator 2020 Steam edition. I followed the instructions on the setup and I have the European Loco and Asset Pack so I don't know why this happens what I am going to explain right now.
    After the setup finished, I launched Train Simulator and tested a Quick Drive Scenario, But when I got into the cab, I changed camera view to outside of the train and realised that the powercars were missing! I could only see the mk3 carriages and I was so confused, I tried to copy class43_fgw.geopcdx since it wasn't there but the powercars are still invisible, I can see the coupling from the power car to the mk3 carriage, but the entire locomotive is invisible and failed to load! I really need help with this issue because I spent £10 just for the freaking locomotives to not decide to load!! I HATE wasting my money for nothing!!!!! I also tried clearing the cache etc. but STILL I have this problem!!! It's making my blood boil!!

    Did you install the Realistic branding patch from the same page you bough the VP185?
    That is the paint job on the outside - without it you just see the couplings and the Mk3's

    • redownload the install from AP
    • make sure TSx is closed down
    • right click the installer, click run as administrator
    • When the program starts and asks you where your TS install is make sure this is accurate (this can break)
    • Allow the program to run and you should also get a DOS prompt or two flash up with a load of white writing
    • Once this completes you should get the "install complete" message
    • Try again
