Thanks for the info and the compliment. Am I correct in thinking that the 350/1's have all yellow gangway connector doors and the 350/2's,3's and 4's have half black and half yellow doors?

Rob.

The LNWR class 350s have a full yellow gangway door. Some of the previous liveries had half black and half yellow. There are some really useful photos of every unit on Wiki Commons: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:British_Rail_Class_350s_by_number

Hope this helps!

Kind regards,

Gary

Thanks for the info and link. Further postings on Class 350 from myself will be in a dedicated freeware topic in these forums.

I opened Trainz today for the first time in a couple of weeks and as I was working in Surveyor, things got messy. Switched to S2.0 and it's much easier to work among dozens of splines. While I find the majority of route building is done in old Surveyor, S2.0 is definitely much better in some respects. It would be nice to think N3V retain the ability to switch as that offers the best of both, though I suspect the feature will disappear at some point.

Good point Innis, S2.0 is definitely superior for working on splines and trackwork. This is why I like TRS22, but I fear these features will disappear in the next iteration of the game sadly.

Deltic departure caught from City Central caught from the Park Street flats c.1975.

Finally, class 40 on early morning tankers....

You'll have seen quite a number of shots of Craiglang lately. It's a very similar set up to my Wescott Town route, only based on a real location this time. This is an overview of the 'route' at present, the centre board being the only one that will be covered in scenery. Even though, what is shown here has taken a huge amount of time but it has provided a diversion from getting bored on the Edinburgh Glasgow route (yes, it's still being worked on).

Trackwise, the centre board is almost complete, only the wagon maintenance facility to be finished. The end boards contain little more than what amounts to fiddle yards and what you see here may change before I release the route.

Great stuff Innis, I'm well known for appreciating the joys of a finely detailed micro-route, so I look forward to seeing the fruits of your efforts here.

Session testing on the tiny Par Harbour branch into St Blazey yard.

Amazing as ever Mark.

Moving away from Craiglang station now to work on the wagon maintenance facility. Everything to the right of there will have scenery.

I've added a lot more scenery into the previous shot and this shows same taken from the opposite side of the disused siding.

Here's that class 40 on tanks seen earlier, now pulling away from City Central....

Deltic 55011 The Royal Northumberland Fusiliers passes Follingsby (Newcastle) Freightliner Terminal heading south on my WIP Leamside Line. The Terminal existed from 1967 to 1987 and when it closed it sounded a death knell for the line.

Although a Deltic working a Freightliner may seem implausible someone at Follingsby took these amazing shots of visiting locos and 55021 is among them.

Ah, I see what you mean! Pity there isn't a picture of it on the freightliner train. It doesn't surprise me that by 1979 they might be put to that sort of use.

I wouldn't be surprised if a few Deltic bashers in 1979 got the "gen" and took photos of it but they are probably sitting in drawers and cupboards.

A Clayton Class 17 passes over Pontop Crossing on the Stanhope & Tyne Railway heading for Washington in 1966. In 1981 I made a long pilgrimage to Clitheroe Cement Works to view the sole remaining Clayton and her Polish driver gave me a run up the yard. Happy days !
