NEW East Coast HST
- Thread starter mfp111
- Start date
Yes , but not the version you see below . A new HST has been built by JN114 who is just finishing off the original version bodyshell this will be updated to include the new pattern lights and bodyshell alterations. I'm entrusted with supplying most of the different liveries (National Express East coast being one of them)
I'm not sure of an actual date for release but he is looking at around Christmas 2009

All of the HST liveries will be covered, see the UKTrainz forum for more details
I think most reskinners are waiting for the release of the Intercity 125 HST from Trainz 2010, to see what that looks like, if it's as good as it looks on the Trainz 2010 website, and we get permission for it to be reskinned, then I expect many HST 125 sets in many liverys to appear...
I have recently created the FGW Neon livery HST, but cannot release it, because the main part of it was made by Railwaves, there is a clause in the Railwaves contract that states... you can reskin them for your own personal use only, but they cannot be sold, hired or given away...
I think this is where myself and Nexusdj are stuck at the moment, and why we cannot release most of the content we have made, hopefully though with the new release of the HST 125 from Trainz, and also from the excellent work that JN114 has made with his version of the HST, I'm sure Trainz 2010 is in for a massive HST 125 shake up...

The HST in my screenshots isn't the railwaves version (it is an almost completely rebuilt Auran HST from the content creators CD) and would of been released had it not been for JN114 stepping forward with a far superior bodyshell and asking me to come on board by reskinning it into the numerous liveries it had carried .
Whilst the Railwaves HST was good for it's time (as was the original Auran HST before it) it is over scale when compared to the rest of the UK stock and the Buffet car has sides from two different variants so is totally wrong !
It will be interesting to see what variants of the powercars will be introduced with the 2010 version as well as the correct types of Mk3 trailer coaches and no doubt with Auran's permission many of the talented reskinners will step forward to reskin them but that still leave's the 2004 to 2009 users out in the cold , which is hopefully where we can step in and fill the void .

Wow guys, looking at the end result, the HST's look amazing, I thought they were Railwaves as they look as good as Railwaves, brilliant job Nexusdj and JN114, keep up the great work, look forward to the release of these new HST sets, I do hope you add a sleeper car and a kitchen/buffet car in the selection, now that would be something...
