Someone sent me a link to a new Class 87: https://www.facebook.com/Waggonz/photos/a.368640896520916/3943168992401404/ Looks good, better colour at least than the greeny-blue of the one in Shap.
That's the caledonian sleeper livery, so not BR Rail Blue any way. They've been "building" that for a VERY long time now. Apparently they "lost a lot of source material in a HD failure." (sigh). Don't hold your breath. This is why I lecture people on back up. I wish them all the luck in the world though. They've got my money already... they just need to finish it.
This raises another question though. Look at those textures!! If only textures (and models) like this were used on the actual routes themselves. CPU single core performance has come a long way since the Kuju days, and (assuming you can buy one) so have GPUs. I for one would prefer a better looking game that requires a hardware upgrade.
The release of this loco must be nearer as they are now using this picture on their Facebook page I asked if we could have some european liveries - like 87004 https://87015aewn.files.wordpress.com/2017/08/87004-2011-railtour-lakatnik-2.jpg
It's amazing how a logo on the front and different snowploughs make the BR87 seem very continental! I guess the setting helps too.
