Great shots guys!

Nexusdj, fantastic shot of the 91!

Can I ask where you got the ECML style catenary in the pic?

 

[pfx]

@ escafeld -Thanks for those. I think the first one, although not quite right, is close enough as damnit.

Thanks again.

@ matthunn - They look like the built in UK catenary. Off the top of my head, I think they're called UK custom span and UK custom span arm and both are scenery splines. I stand-by to be corrected...

I'm just downloading some more poles from my archive and I'll post ASAP. They have not got any wire, so you'll have fun stringing them together with Catenary wire, or whatever else you have.

 

[escafeld]

Scrub that, I appear to have lost them, but here are the kuid no.s

Hope you find them on the DLS. I can't get on there, so I can't check.

 

[escafeld]

Found 'em

Bit of a fiddle fixing the wire, but looks good. You can tilt the poles as much as you like. One hasn't got pots on (not shown)

 

[escafeld]

That 4f again

...and more modern traction

Climbing the gradient, which in Lincolnshire is not much as far as the railways are concerned.

 

[pfx]

Thanks for all that effort escafeld. Your first pole is still the one for me. Ahem.

 

[escafeld]

I hope it's long enough :hehe:

 

[pfx]

Haha. I almost fell off my chair laughing. Fnarrr, fnarrr.

 

[escafeld]

I'll catch the train then!

 

[j_maybury]

WOW!!! that was a bad accident Dave!!!
I've seen a Formular 1 car loose both his front wheels, but never all four at once!! :hehe: :hehe:

 

[escafeld]

He left them here, he went over the crossing too fast

 

[pfx]

HAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA. Stop.

If the guy went over the crosing too fast and lost his wheels (and the risk of sending pfx laughing), wouldn't the wheels do something like this?

(An old one of a wheel falling off and ending up on a wall of tyres, you've probably seen it already: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErDx0A7TF18 )

Aparently, my mum had that situation where a caravan decided to loose a wheel and ended up in the hedge, miles away from the caravan.

Ayup, the V8 Supercars. Saw that one before but it's still a goodie.

In no way related, I must get some more done on my commuter route and post a few pics. Using some of your 317s (with fictional reskin) on it.

 

[escafeld]

I put a small dock branch in. I'll probably delete the built-in container station and custom build my own.

 

[pfx]

Less talk, more pictures I suppose.

Before anyone asks, the EMU is the beta unit on the VSR website. It's a fictional reskin. Is it too like Regional Railways? The route is a 2 board high density urban network which I plan on uploading when it's done.

Are you planning for suburban and express liveries like SWT? I was thinking of doing that with my SXR stock but not large variations, just subtle ones, like orange discs for express, lilac for general purpose, red doors for suburban, etc.
