UK Screenshots (Hi Res Version)

[RailFan500CA]

I decided I would make up for the lack of UK screenshots from me.

I think it's great to see the UK Screenshots thread moving away from the 'tin box and concrete' theme

Rob.

Happy to oblige :hehe:

Cheers robd, MF01!

Nice shots everyone!
========================================
Not a busy day today, but still sharing

Lovely shots all!

Just a few from me; 34070 Manston is ready to depart with the Wessex Belle dining train one evening:

​

The next two show the rebuilding of Swanage station using assets by MasonTaylor. I'm pretty pleased with it, if I do say so myself, and think it enhances the general look and feel of the station indefinitely, although the road still needs some work doing to it!
​

Cheers,

Excellent and dramatic screenshots there RailFan500CA.

Swanage station is looking very good PortLineParker. Masons Taylor's buildings are some of the best.

Nice screenshots nexusdj, - but I have to confess i haven't a clue what I'm looking at.

And your layout is looking nicely leafy hiawathamr.

One of my Stockton & Darlington Bouch 4-4-0's gets a run. Note the double buffers.

Nice Swanage station PLP. In particular, the 3rd shot in your post #17098 looks more or less as how I remember it after my visit a few years ago.

Cheers Rob, it's very much appreciated!
A few more shots of Swanage station, with a bit more detail added:

Excellent shots all, keep it up!

Last few from me for tonight; a few shots of Herston Halt and its progress. Here we see a class 117 DMU 3 car set pausing briefly at Herston:

Still very much a WIP!

Brilliant screenshots PLP.

After looking at your model of Longbeck Mightyena I'm never going to complain about the problems of building a town on a layout ever again!

 

[nexusdj]

Excellent shots all

 

[robd]

Nice shots PLP.

Is the 117 class DMU from the West Somerset Railway (WSR) payware package? It appears to be greatly enhanced from the original WSR model I have. Did you do some mods yourself or is it generally available?

Thanks,

Rob.

Superb Nexus !

 

[hiawathamr]

Great screenshots everyone!
==============================
Since I'm a bit late to the steam era, lets go back in time and see some steam on the layout. Shall we?

Cheers,

Hi Rob,

Cheers for the kind comments.

It is indeed the same DMU, but vastly updated. I believe arrial(?) updated it initially, alongside 2995valliant who owns the meshes. I don't, however, think it is commercially available anymore, but I could be wrong. You'd have to ask 2995valliant.
The only editing I have done (strictly for my own personal use) is to the textures, where I've added Swanage and Norden as destinations.
Cheers,

PLP

The following screenshots aren't meant to look fancy, more as a quick sneak peak, to a project that's drawing closer to completion. The screenshot above is meant to demonstrate the tunnel kit I'm working on, intended to be a replacement of AJS' kit, excellent as it is, it is now rather aged. Yes I'm aware the A stock is lacking a 4th rail! Anyway I was rather frustrated with the majority of tunnels within trainz looking too bright and clean, so I've intended my kit too look as dark as possible but without being pitch black so the bricks and ballast still retain some definition,

The screenshot above shows the portal asset with wingwalls and columns, they've been textured to look like Staffordshire Bluebrick, to blend with Nexusdjs and MasonTaylors Greybrick retaining walls.

Ahh, interesting! I don't recall that particular version by arrarial (sic) being ever made available and, as we all know, 2995Valliant keeps a tight reign on the WSR assets (whatever for, is anyone's guess!) so you're lucky to have that. I have found many versions of the class 117 DMU on the DLS, I'm looking at using the textures of the WSR payware one to do a reskin - strictly for my own use

That will be a very useful addition, thanks for your work.
