The only thing I could suggest is that you check to make sure in the trainset folder that the coaches are actually in a folder within that - if they are in a folder called, say, Mk111, open the folder and see if the individual files are there - if there are more folders, thats your problem. different installers have diffrerent methods for putting stuff into the sim so that could be where the problem lies. Failing that, it could be a problem in the .eng file whereby the name of the coach doesn't correspond with some other part of the folder. Hope this helps.

I don't think you need to change any files, just check and make sure that the new folders in the trainset folder contain only files and not more folders. The files should have extensions of .wag .ace .sd .s

Hope this helps, if not you would be better e-mailing the person who produced the stock you are trying to run.
