This is a reskin of the Class 375 within South London Network to that of a representation of the Class 375/8, including a named version of 375823. Destinations are the same as the Chatham Main Line Class 375 but have included a list within the zip file. This also includes the PTOSL even though the 375/8 doesn't have one in real life. 

The reskin is listed in the editor as follows.

Instructions
-------------

Install the provided .rwp files using the TS2016 Package Manager which can be found by using the Utilities.exe at Steam\steamapps\common\railworks, then....

1, Extracting the AP File (Skip to step 2 if you have already done this)

Newer content from Steam is provided in an .ap file format which contains all of the relevant files. When installing modifications to this content, the required contents of this .ap file have to be unpacked first. This can be done in a number of ways, but I will give instructions using 7-Zip which can be obtained here, for free:  http://www.7-zip.org/  Other archivers such as WinRar should also perform the same task.

Navigate to Steam\steamapps\common\railworks\Assets\RSC\SouthLondonLines\  and right click on the SouthLondonLines.ap file, navigate to 7-Zip and click Extract Here. This will then place all of the folders in their correct location and look exactly how the content used to. If you only want to extract the RailVehicles folder for the purposes of installing this reskin, right click, navigate to 7-Zip and Open Archive. You can then select the RailVehicles folder and drag it into the open folder.

2, Copying over the GeoPcDx files

Copy the files named 375_DMOC.GeoPcDx, 375_DMOC2.GeoPcDx, 375_MOSL.GeoPcDx, 375_PTSOL.GeoPcDx and 375_TSOL.GeoPcDx found at...

Assets\RSC\SouthLondonLine\RailVehicles\Electric\Class375\SE-WhiteGrey\

and paste this into the following location:-

Assets\RSC\SouthLondonLine\RailVehicles\Electric\Class375\SE-DarkBlue-8\

Go back to Assets\RSC\SouthLondonLine\

If this location contains a blueprints.pak file, delete this. Don't worry, a new one is created when the program is loaded.

Once in game, in order to place this new consist in a route, you need to activate the South London in the object filter by selecting RSC/SouthLondonLines

The reskin should now be listed in the editor as described above.
