Hi all, Just thought I'd come in and mention my latest freeware project which I think some will be interested in. I'm making what you could say is a modern version of Severn Valley Railway. Why: I find I like the heritage lines but feel doing simple to mid changes can make them feel quite different. This also allows me to work on a smallish project and not getting to overwelmed. Whats Included: - Double track. - High ish speed capable so up to around 85 mph. - Capable of running stock like class 150, c153, c220. - TSW 6 features, station announcements. - Colored signals with some semaphores in places. What would be needed DLC wise: So as I am working on this on my own I'm not able to create literally everything so some stuff I have had to take from other routes. At the moment the below plugins are what would be needed, this isn't final however and could change. - Riveria Route - Class 220 - Preston to Blackpool. Pictures are to follow, please also bear in mind it's WIP and I'm not amazing at route building when it comes to scenery and the art side of thing so please bare that in mind.
Like the idea of this, something I've done on Trainz myself. We could do with a Class 50 to go with it.
I love it. Is the idea to create the SVR as if it was still a Network Rail run operation? How would that alter the scenery or the infrastructure that’s currently there, in heritage form? Do you have an insight to what ‘franchise’ or service pattern would operate on the line? Presumably something to Birmingham?
Essetially yeah, network railway run. Scenery etc wouldnt really change but in my first post ive put what some of the differences are. Service pattern stuff be 153s and 150s and every say hour and half something like that you get a 220 which comes from mainline and then after doing run to bn and back would then go back off onto mainline .
