    Hi all,

    I thought I'd share my progress on the Blackpool Tramway that I'm building. It's a personal project at moment to see how well I can build and it's early days. Below are a few screenshots of progress so far.

    Track made specific for the Blackpool tramway. a mix of none ballasted and ballasted tracks with parts to blend in with paved parts.

    I'll post more as I progress through.

    Here is another update on my project -

    Below is a video of me testing the RailCoach tram and getting sounds working right. Very WIP.



    - All stations have been placed. Struggling to get passengers working, though.
    - Visual aesthetics to be placed at each station.
    - Fleetwood ferry side has a residential building bringing to be placed.
    - Tram has bit more of an interior slowly coming together.

    Just thought for last time tonight do a final update on the sound/audio situation. Still a lot of work to do but improved from earlier today.

    Very encouraging - great fan of the tramway particularly pre modernisation, having built the original MSTS route and the TSC version (with a lot of help from others).

    So just thought here is an update for today so far on the changes from last update.

    The sounds I got help from others on to get going and what I had to do so thank you to them. Also, had some help with simugraph again to get going as didn't know what to do there so thank you to them.

    Coming on nicely however I feel.
