What is the Deltic shot???

Someone has posted a picture of two deltics on the UKTrainsim site. Is there a discussion to go with it??

http://album.atomic-systems.com/showPic ... deltic.jpg

I imagine its to illustrate the difference in quality between the kuju and a freeware one. I like the nicer one.

Regards
Mike

UK Road Sections

Has anyone already made, or thinking about making, UK style road sections with double yellow lines, bus lanes, roundabouts, dual carriageways and motorways and the like? Would be very useful.

You can minimise MSTS, though I forget how as its not installed at the mo. it was either Alt-Tab, or just the windows button. I think the former.

I feel the need to reply to this, if only to say I know Mexborough very well, born there, and to be Gay in the Dearne Valley is a bit like being a rabbit in a Lion's den. I'd keep it quiet if I were you and never drink in places like Bolton Upon Dearne or Denaby. I'm straight and wouldn't go there. ...

Don't quit. I was building the Hope Valley Route but ran in to so many problems that i just thought sod it. I then went back to original fictional route. I've given up on that now because the two hundred miles of track I laid required too much imagination to add the scenery to the standard I wanted....

In the real world I have a particular fascination with the class 89 and APT-P. In train-sim, I generally use either the Eurostar, Blue Pullman, or a Northern Spirit 158 (with modified eng file for testing). I haven't been able to get the APTs to work yet and now my Windows patition has stopped worki...

I was thinking more along the lines of something you might see in Lord of the Rings. If they had railways in Middle Earth, that is. But a sun drenched coast would be just as good.

Keep it going.

To be perfectly honest with you.

There is a music Vid appearing on the Music channels at the moment, 'Here comes the Fear' by The Doves, that uses lots of old railway footage. Can anyone that has seen this identify all the trains in it? So far I've spotted a class 86 and at least two Blue Pullman units, one of them is in the odd Wh...

The orange DMU on the first page of this thread looks very much like a Class 158, but with central doors. Anyone fancy doing a reskin?

Activities. It would be incredibly useful, nay, critical, to be able to assign priorities individually to all of the AI trains, as well as to the player service. Also, whilst actually playing an activity, I would like to be able to switch to the signal box, preferably one with a track diagram showin...

A free roaming mode would be good. I experiened Microsoft Motocross Madness for the first time this easter and couldn't help but notice how similar the terrain looked to that of MSTS. In fact the whole game had the same feel to train sim. How nice, I thought, would it be to be able to explore my lon...

How about including the Authors other credits? Any other routes or files that they have uploaded, though I have nothing to declare myself :cry: Not yet anyway.

I don't think it would do any harm help build a few good reputations within the community.

I can keep track of the ideas. Just don't ask me to understand any of them :smile:

I'll go through the post's again and see what knowledge I can garner.

Hello All. My word. There has been much development in my absence. Much of it going way over my head. My general concept for a database of routes would effectively begin with a route map of the UK rail network with an overlay of the relevant tiles. A representation of the entire country as a quad tr...
