Description I'll be honest with you, I was not sure about this until I started adding the metal details. It was kinda hard to find a good reference picture, so I ended up using multiple ones, so you might find details from a train that are not the same in another one. You will notice the lack of doors in the back of the cars. I didn't find any picture where I could see them, so they are not present.

And yes! This is the train that inspired the ones in HL2. I kinda jumped into the hype train during the Winter Sale and ended up doing this. Couldn't finish it sooner though, because of university.

Anyway, a HL2 version of this is coming soon, along with the other rolling stock present in the games. I can assure you, however, that the bogies are looking weird.

Ooh, this is really nice!  I am a fan of the DR1a and its HL2 incarnation.  These sprites, like all of your other pixel projects, have some amazing shading and textures.  I love the corrugated metal look!

The bogies on the HL2 model (which, frankly, looks rather out of scale compared to the real one) are that of Blomberg B trucks, which we have here in the States on vintage diesels. That unused yellow-and-red engine, however, oddly has freight car bogies....
