Bggr it! I wish I had been at Plymouth that day!

I've seen a pair of FGW power cars go through Plymouth before, heading from Cornwall to the depot not far from Plymouth (sorry, I have no idea what it is called)

Would have been good to see 2 HST sets together though!

Regarding the .eng and .wag changes..... In actual fact, only one change is needed, as I would just include an appropriate consist with the activity (a DVT or failed 91 loco wagon is included with Ben Laws' GNER 225 set) I would also be happy to include the modified 67 .eng file, with the authors co...

I've just had a play around with the .wag suggestion (of a sort).

I used 67010 (Pete's GNER skin) and I removed the 91 from the 225 consist, and replaced it with the failed 91 wagon. Worked just fine :)

Now to get to work creating the traffic...... aarrgghh!!

Thanks for the tips folks!

I'm using Ben Laws GNER 225 set.

I'm suprised that the 67 isn't powerful enough, as GNER use EWS 67's as rescue locos on the ECML in real life.

67001 + GNER 225. No Power!

Hi Folks. I've searched the forums, and haven't managed to find the cure for this one yet. I'm doing a 'Thunderbird' activity, whereby EWS 67001 has to rescue a failed GNER 225 set. I've got the couplings working OK, and I have modified the .eng file of the 67 so that it uses the same braking system...

Oh, and just a quick extra - I rember reading somewhere that the short Eurostar sets were going to do something like a full set arrives at Waterloo, seperate, and head thier seperate ways, and vice-versa. I can't remember which website, but I definately read it! Obviously this isn't the case, but I ...

And here I was, thinking it was a topic about the 9 car meridian..... :) Only kidding folks. I was with Backfoot at Derby when the 9 car 222 was stood at Platform 4. I must say, it was quite a sight, especially rounding the curve as it passed Etches Park. Would be very nice to see a 9 car Voyager to...

As for the website, I haven't noticed any big difference, but the thumbnails do seem to be a little quicker. As for broadband, I use Pipex ADSL. £33 per month for unlimited 1mb connection, free email support and local rate telephone support. Been with them for just over 2 years, and had a total of ...

I also remember reading that, to begin with, the HST's were to be classified as multiple units, but later they became Class 43 locos + coaches. My logic (time to worry people!) would say they could be classified as multiple units, due to the fact the HST is always a set. Always 2 power cars, and the...

Yeah, I know what you mean. Its a real shame that it appears so many of the free tickets will go unused, or not be appreciated. As it happens, I was lucky. I used my CT ticket on a trip to the east coast, and (if I am allowed to say this...lol) I bought four MML tickets from eBay, and have used one ...

I got a cabride last Friday :) I happened to be stood in the right place when a 170 pulled into Derby, bound for Nottingham. As the driver got out to change ends, I just asked if there was any chance of a peek in the cab. As soon as I mentioned I was a keen rail enthusiast, and interested in a caree...
