📋 About This Mod
Howdy!
I was exploring the Commonwealth, came across a wrecked train, and noticed that the boxcars were a little too bright and colourful for my taste, so I've darkened and muted them by a fair bit.
Textures are available in standard resolution - 1024x1024 (1k) - and 2048x2048 (2k).
