The third rail is there :D There will also be a revised track texture which all going well, Matt will have soon and can post a comparison.... More and more good news!! I've already made up my mind to buy the route (well I did when I first heard about it actually) but I may also be at Leytonstone to...

The level of scenery detail is exellent and I likes wot I sees regarding the 3rd rail. I just hope minor problems (such as platform overlapping track on the far left of the screeny of South Croydon) can be sorted out before release so that they do not detract from the product as a whole.

Now that's HELLFIRE!!!!

Accoding to Sir Beardalot's simplistic press releases, it is the Voyagers' 'mothership depot'. It is in fact owned and operated by Bombardier.

Excellent idea for a new train service though, doubt it'll happen of course though I quite agree (in both excellent idea, and unlikely to happen). However, Vermin do have advanced plans for an hourly Gatwick-Manchester service via Redhill and Guildford from Summer TT 2004. This would possibly be mo...

'Fraid this:

Calling at Bristol Parkway, Swindon, Didcot Parkway, Reading, Guildford, and Gatwick Airport only
