You won't get far with only one wheel on each bogie Roy! The old girls need both sets of traction motors to be useful. lol
Thanks Aaron, I guess I've just got to stumble along with what's available.
I was a bit desperate calling into Everleigh. They only had a few rusty bogey units lying around with grass growing around them. But a drop of WD40 and I was in business.
I should have kept a few ball-bearing races from my old billy-cart and swung them into action as well. That could have helped. Back in the 1940s, I was the fastest kid on ball-bearings in the street.
So, any idea when the covers come off the re-vamped XPT, mate?
:Y:Cheers, and have a Merry Christmas.

Unfortunately not mate, we haven't worked on it for a while. There is still a fair bit of detail stuff to do but the sounds are nearly complete. I'm quite pleased with the sounds if I do say so myself.
I will post updates here when we get going again.
Thanks Aaron. No worries. Enjoy Christmas mate.
Cheers,
Roy
Great shots everyone. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas with family friends and loved ones.

Thanks guys!
Thanks, it's a reskin of ATD's coming flat top. Based around the idea of if the VR never went with the blue and gold, but instead stuck to the red/black being applied to their new locos at the time (i.e. the R and J class, plus of course the E class electrics and F class diesel electrics!). The logo is a the 'wings' from the streamlined Ss, with the later diesel style 'roundel' in the middle, with the wings in white and the roundel in gold (just seemed to work best!).
I rather like it, and am looking to apply it across a few other classes of VR locos!

Great screenshots Zec. Particularly like the atmosphere captured in the first one.

That's an interesting idea, and the diesel style 'roundel' works, as you say.
Be interesting to see what emerges from this idea.

Here we see NR93 and NR19 doing tests on my test track on Trainz a New Era. Also can someone help me find out how and where is the free external camera view it’s not the one where you press 4 and move freely thanks
If you are looking to place a camera at various sections along your track. then press F5 'Tools'- This then works automatically in Driver mode.
If you just want to change camera view from Cab, Chase, Lineside, Free-roaming, or Map view then look to the first tab ,.. top-right and select your choice; OR, try 1 for cab and 2 for chase.
Cheers,
Roy
