"name That Cab!"

It's a Pendolino, but this is the old VT one so might have different textures or it's my PC being weird.

I suppose some are quite distinctive, both the voyagers and pendolinos have a similar interior that's unique to VT. If you've ever been on one you'd probably recognise the upholstery of the seats, the shape or the armrests and the wood effect on the tables. There's also the power socket just next to the table where most other trains either have them on top/underneath the table or between/under the seats.

 

They should put the antimacassars on ALL seats, not just 1st class. I hate the thought of my head resting against someone else's dandruff.

 

They changed nothing with the WCML version except the branding... same interior textures as far as I know. TS is just rubbish with colours... hence your hi-vis tables.. and the annoying acid green foliage in spring and summer. Like I said.... ReShade is your friend here.

 

Only if you were in 1st class. They're bright red... and blue in standard class.

 

Is that a sort of Photoshop for TS?

Living as far from the nearest railway station as I generally need to go, I’ve only been in a train once in about 30 years. And that time about ten years ago, I was marvelling at the fact that carriages had USB charging ports!

So I’m a bit behind the curve with modern stuff!

 

I'll post another in a minute.

Kind of. It allows you to add DX9 shaders that do various things... one of which is a selective colour editor to fine tune colours.

 

OK....

 

Class 24

 

Yup! Post one up

 

Ok an easy one

 

That's a "Craven" (105)

 

Correct

Your turn

 

Should be easy...

 

Cab of a Emu?

 

It's not a multiple unit of any kind, no.

 

OK.. didn't think this was so difficult.

Clue: It has a Sulzer engine.

 

Class 25?

 

Yep.. 'tis a rat.

 

Ok what is this in

 

Nothing springs to mind immediately. I'll pick this up tomorrow... if it's still unclaimed. It's single malt time

 

I thought inversnecky might know from conversations in another thread

 

Goes to look through other threads

 

The panelling looks vaguely familiar but drawing a blank.

All I can think of talking about recently is the 73?

I need to bring a massive reference file of cabs to keep up with you lot!

 

Is that your answer?

 

Don’t think it is, but I’ve been talking of several classes, but the 73 the most. Not at TS now, so can’t check.

Starting to think it’s a 20 something.

If you know the answer, go for it.

 

Peter?

 

MKS 73
For those who have the MKS 73 you switch on the AWS by first using the Right Arrow Key and then moving the handle
A bit like AP traction where you need to move the AWS handle

I will find something else

 

I reckon you let him have it... He did actually type "73" in his post

 

Ok inversnecky - your turn

 

Thanks, very generous!

Will put something up later.

I didn’t realise you could do that manually in the MKS 73.

 

Sorry, had my first COVID jab today and feeling knackered, will look out something tomorrow.

 

Here you go:

 

You have got me
The Rev counter and Speedo look like what you see on a Dmu but it's not as it shows Engine 1/Engine 2 plus Bogie 1/Bogie 2
Some form of track machine?

 

Class 117 or a derivative of the same Pressed Steel/Derby unit.

 

You got it, Pookey, a Class 117.

The original screenshot was a lot brighter than it appeared here, but you were able to bring out the detail.

Over to you.

 

I rejected the 117 as the Speedo is the first dial on my unit


Weird?

 

Mine was the Class 117 with the North (West?) Dorset Railway: maybe there’s other variants?

 

Try this...

 

Mine is the original stand alone from DTG - I have the other but I thought they were the same

 

I'm not sure, but in real life there are a few units with identical cab layouts.

 

Any clues?

 

There were 15 of them.

 

Class 59?

 

Yep! Well done.

 

Here you go. Not sure how au fait with steam you all are, so have included the whole cab:

 

I know next to nothing about steam locos I'm afraid.

 

A wild guess is the Midland 4F which i know from the Academy training section

 

Hope someone does, or I'll post another if not. You guys seem to know every diesel or electric there is, so thought a steam loco would my only chance of stumping you!

 

Sorry , no.

 

S&D 7F?
