It might be worth checking out the Europeanbahn forums, There's a thread titled "Goldstar" started by myself on the virtual railways board about a pullman style service.

Why so ?

Its set in current times with current operators, no real reason to include it in such a spec'd route.

Think it would need to be more 1960's fpr the Brighton Belle

(can have a few bullied pacifics thrown in as well

).

There is NO 1970's addpack.

What there is a simple rebranding to make it look more like a 1970's version.
Different time periods make route construction very tricky, and involve so much work it becomes a major project which would need a proper retail release to make it worth doing.
(something that SVR also discovered)

we want one of these for Goldstar, as im the newly appointed VP. it would be brilliant as a nostalgia, we wouldnt even change the livery.

If there has ever been any published, they've eluded every net I've cast

Why don't you make a 2BIL and edit it around to make a 5BEL? They're both similar.

Thanks Mike, I now have plenty of things to make, but still not the 5-Bel

Hey.... Oh no - 6PUL is not 5BEL. I have sent you drawings for the formation with a pullman car in it - not the all-pullman formation. never mind, that's half a start. I'll keep looking.

The 6PUL and later 6 PAN sets (with a pantry car) were used on the line to Bournemouth - a much more salubrious place than brighton IMHO.

Although my reliable sources inform me that the 6 PUL sets were actually built for the Brighton electrification in 1933 - so I'm not far off!
