For the first time in 10 years, it is starting to feel that the stars are aligning for a GEML release. I understand ATS are doing a passenger/parcels version, I assume with a DVT. Absolutely agree with OldVern Dusty bins (321s) are essential and could be converted to 320s for Scotrail and 321/4s for a backdated WCML. I've not heard anything but I think they are the most obvious choice for a TSW Mk3 EMU. Hopefully Armstrong Powerhouse kept their recordings. Given the era of the Class 90s maybe 360s using the very similar 350s for sounds and physics but hopefully with the correct cab & interior (which will also be useful for GWE airport services!). Though late 2003 during the transition from 86s to 90s and 312s to 360s would be the dreamland release for me. We also have a very useful Class 86/2 that's a DBSO away from making-up an Anglia push-pull set. So it'll be set somewhere between 2003-2020, when it happens. We've got 150/2s and 170 in game too of course. If anyone is developing it and needs any assistance with development (in particular testing and/or fleet data), please do DM me. I might be looking for work later this year and my wife is encouraging me to get out of insurance and do something I actually enjoy.
I'm looking forward to door faults if we get the Class 321. You're not a true Great Eastern commuter until you've experienced an emergency stop from 100mph due a passing train causing a door interlock failure on a Class 321. I hope they include that startling "bang" that those doors made whenever they passed another train at speed.
Calm down... Jeez. I wouldn't say the Class 90 is a failure. It works, it runs. What we really need is DTG to say sorry, but we won't get that.
