    the first scenario derails but this one ok, nice to sit back and let the engine do the work, no firing. Nice
    enjoyable trip, able to check everything out as we went, must say signaling good, was able to relate to my days in the 1960's on the footplate, all checked out ok.

    I think somebody needs to tell the devs that platforms in the 1950s always had ramps at the end. Great picture though.

    Crewe station still looks off scale to me, like using a HO building on a OO layout.

    Nice one, jetgriff. Leave kettles and steam for making the tea!

    It's a shame we've not got a consist editor so we could have a green 40 hauling a set a maroon MK1's.

    Also the lack of paths in scenario planner make it impossible to make the route busy, it's just as dead as timetable mode.

    There is a Green EE Type 4 reskin, also green Class 101. No idea how you get them in the next to useless scenario planner, though. Stick some blue\grey coaching stock behind the green EE Type 4. Quite authentic on the LMR, as they had steam until 1968.

    Yeah but the blue/grey coaching stock would of been under the wires (also you can only have the 40 with MKII's on the planner). I do have a few reskins of the 101 via creators club, it's easy enough to get them in via the planner as it gives you the option to select which reskin you want once you've selected the loco, same as the rolling stock.
