About the only two Modern DMU's we don't yet have!!!

Post by martinhodgson »

I am talking about, of course, the Class 156 and Class 175! (Class 141 doesn't deserve the title modern :evil: )

I seem to recall someone making a new Class 156, as the model on the old one was a bit lacking - What has happened to it??? :angel:

I think Buffy was doing a 156 and someone else (eddief i think) said they would do a 175 if they were supplied with drawings which there is a lack of for the 175s.

I have quite a reasonable 156 model - I think Daniel Wilkie may have co-operated on it with someone not sure - but it has its own cabview and transparent windows I think - isn't it somewhere on my website (I know because I used it for a Stranraer line activity!).

Yep.. My 156 textures and i think Ian Jenkins 155.. Its not the best model but fills in the gaps!.

Its only available in SPT & Scotrail colours, There is also another Sprinter done but that wasnt mine.

I hope for a real 156 as well :-)

Correct it was me who said that, and if someone either works or knows someone who works for either the builder or First North Western, perhaps you could see if you could get hold of some drawings for the units.

Also I am about to email First North Western themselves to see if they can supply me with anything.
