Great shots all!:udrool:
A Class 313 rests in platform 3 of St Golding station
A class 66 and Network rail team performing track maintainance
A pair of Class 477s (477603+477619) on loan to Hayden Trains stop at Manor Park on their way to Wendsey
Yeah, I know they need reskinning and when I get time, I'll sit down and do more than just slap a big green "Hayden Trains" sign on top of WEN's default skin

Thanks to Driver_Col for the new Gwladys Ddu (GWR) route - a great setting for skipper1945's superb locomotives.
Here's a wet and miserable night at Gwladys Ddu shed:
An express bound for Tristyn passes Gwladys Ddu shed:
While on the Mold and Denbigh branch in North Wales an 8F heads through Mold to what was the Uk's most secret military site at Rhydymwyn:

Well, if you like my Class 477, you might like this next variant I am working on, which is the third variant. I think the Mid Capacity version is included in the current CDPs, but please do confirm if they are not. (They should have MC by the names). This is the HC variant, which means....
http://forums.auran.com/trainz/show...gram)-screenies-renders&p=1001730#post1001730
...well, high capacity, or should they be "crowd shifters?" I guess some might even call them "crowd control" of a more literal sense. Got a station taking on too many passengers? These will soon solve the issue*.
*Strap hangers not included.
On a more serious note, I've acquired a toughbook (CF-28, very old) and the first thing I did, with its measly 512mb of ram and Windows XP is put these massively poly heavy sets into max on the Toughbook, which has a few nice additions, like I have a CF-VDW07 (yeah, pimp my toughbook!) which is a wireless display and despite the PIII 800mhz processor, 160GB hard drive of which, only 137gb is usable, sporadic and non working wifi (at the moment) and the hassle I had in trying to get 7 to work on it, it did deal with the crowd shifter very, very well, it even runs TC3, abeit, not very well at the moment. Oh, its drop proof, splash proof, dust resistant and shock proof, the hard drive is mounted in a gel pack, which means, at least my data and my meshes are safe, even when travelling.
And no, I haven't given up on the Class 502 as of yet, I had a few changes in my life, not just the toughbook, but ending up with my sisters car that needs fixing as some of you already know from facebook, some idiot sabotarged the fuel tank with sugar, not an issue thank god, just means everything needs declogging and the car needs a tow from the garage (which CANNOT do the work) and oh god, its a mess. Along with trying to take her to work every day until she got her older Astra and it gets soo soo messy. And now my clio has a blown exhaust manifold, well suspect gasket. Good thing it only cost me £100 so far to buy, well thats £80, plus a write off of the £20 fuel cost to get her new car.
@WEN that looks brilliant, can't wait!
Not sure about the MC versions, the .cdp from your site doesn't appear to contain them, haven't been able to access your server to check that one for some reason
BTW are you still continuing with your Networkers? I hope so as they'd be great for my WIP 'Sellington' and 'Bevelham' routes! (Bevelham is the route with the 66 and 313 from above, will try to post some pictures of Sellington as it progresses, right now it's just one station!)
Finally, the first few Units have rolled out of the paintshed... quite probably to be sent straight back in again for de-painting lol!
A newly painted Class 317/6 rolls into Wendsey's terminus platform...
A shot of Wendsey station approach...
A pendolino rushes past Manor Park station as night falls...
New Hayden Trains class 477/6 waits at Manor Park with a service to Perintree...
Not sure where I came up with the livery, but the bright red and vivid green doors mean at least you'll be able to see it at night (those doors'll hurt your eyes if it comes out of a tunnel suddenly in the sun!:hehe
Sorry also for low quality - at the moment I can only run Trainz on my laptop and TS12 and AMD E-300 APUs don't really get along too well, especially when a speedtree appears...

The networker is put aside while I try to figure out how I can deal with the cabs complex curves, which are a bit too complex for my liking, the server is down because the computer has popped a lot of capacitors, so what I might do, is upload everything to "Wessexelectricnut.co.uk" in a seperate folder. The hard drive I still have and is in a drawer which is backed up as well. And for liveries, the more the better, I like to see variety.
Thats why I have all sorts of liveries for my stock, like coke, pepsi (both together as well), bus operators, vodafone, etc and besides, variety makes things more interesting, while at the same time, gives an individual idenitity to that item. If something has the same livery and you have say 200 sets, you/I tend to get bored after seeing the 10th one or so, unless you start rivet counting, by checking the dents (M29655M has 3 dents on one side, as aposted to 2 on M29656M for a fictional example) and the like.
If you could, that wouldd be great, thanks!
If you like re-skins, you're in luck! Finally managed to get Fireworks and Photoshop to play nice with my laptop, and so I give you no less than 4 variants of the 477:
Standard Hayden Trains livery
National Express livery
Hayden Trains (ex SxR) livery - OK, this one's more of a non-livery that came about due to my own laziness (and has now ended up on most of the 477s on my route:hehe

Believe me, It's difficult to get Adobe cs5.5 to do something productive on a 1.3ghz cpu!

1.6ghz Atom and CS5 is ok with it. As for the reskins, they look interesting, although, one criticism I would have personally speaking, is the yellow fronts need to be enlarged, hence why on the SxR variants, it goes around the cab. Also, look into using the line tool, it will smoothen out those jagged edges
Good to read that, WEN. How is the class502 progress going?
Thanks, Rob.

Does this look better to you?

Another idea is to swap the bogies on ac only sets as they won't need third rail on NXEA sets and some others as well. Just wondering, are you going to try and represent the circuit boards?Similar threads
