MTR TGV PSE TGV Postal Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I spawn a TGV train in my world?
Use the MTR mod's train spawning interface to create a new train, then select the TGV Sud-Est model from the available trains list. You'll need to place it on a valid railway track and configure its consist (which cars to include) before it appears.
What's the difference between F and B versions of the cars?
F (forward) and B (backward) versions control which direction each car faces along the track. Use F and B versions alternately or in your preferred pattern to build realistic train consists without all cars facing the same way.
Do I need to place bogies between every passenger car?
No, bogies are optional and used for visual authenticity. You can build a complete train without them, but adding standalone bogies between passenger cars creates a more realistic TGV appearance with proper spacing.
How do I choose between the orange, silver-blue, and Carmillon paint schemes?
When configuring your train consist in MTR, select which livery variant you want for each car—you can mix different paint schemes in the same train, or keep them consistent for a historically accurate era-specific layout.
What's the difference between the 5-block and 6-block pantograph power cars?
The pantograph height options let you match your overhead wire setup; choose 5-block if your catenary is lower, or 6-block if it's positioned higher on your tracks.
Can I use first-class and second-class cars in the same train?
Yes, MTR allows you to mix different car types in a single consist, so you can combine first-class, second-class, bar cars, and end cars however you want for your route.
Why does my TGV look wrong when I place cars in the wrong order?
Make sure you're using the correct car sequence (power car at the front/back, passenger cars in the middle, end cars at the terminals) and that F/B versions are oriented consistently; incorrect ordering breaks the visual flow.
Do I need any other mods besides MTR for this pack to work?
This is a resource pack for Minecraft Transit Railway, so you must have MTR installed; no other mods are required, though you may want additional mods for stations, tracks, or signals depending on your setup.
Can I use multiple TGV paint schemes on the same railway line?
Yes, you can create separate trains with different liveries (orange, silver-blue, Carmillon) and run them on the same tracks to represent different eras or service types.
What should I do if a car doesn't align properly with the track?
Check that the bogie spacing is correct (use standalone bogies if needed), verify the car orientation (F vs B), and ensure your track is perfectly straight and level where the train spawns.
