82 people have downloaded the US flags.
They then do what with them?
Very odd
I used the original ones round the pleasure fair, on the Blackpool tram route. (Before the Steamnut mods )....so I even used some of the international ones.
Something I must get round to is to do an old BR red flag version....look good on a few routes....I think....and maybe a BREL version too.
Cheers

John, why people download stuff is because it's free and they can.....bears NO relationship to it's usefulness or their ability TO use it, or the liklihood of them EVER de-archiving it. (no slur on the available flags intended).........I swear download sites were invented by Hard Disk manufacturers......................
The (authenticated) Bran crest (and so presumably flag) is a white base with black chevron, with three black ravens with corn in their beaks, dates from 11th century.......

Not true
The St Piran is the Cornish flag, it relates to the cultural identity of the Cornish people.
The county coat of arms and the duchy of Cornwall coat of arms are often regarded as English emblems....
.......oh! That'd be the cultural identity of all the people from all over the UK who moved there dreaming of opening a B&B or retiring somewhere nice, that forced up the property prices in an area of high unemploment thus causing the few, and I suspect nowadays very few, folk of genuine Cornish origin to (apparently judging by the number of Cornish Flags on the back of cars here) move to London to get a job.......would it???rkk01 wrote:bravedan wrote:St Piran, Patron Saint of Miners, flag of the County of Cornwall...............not my wording, from several respected reference sources, so don't blame the messenger!

A sort of "economic ethnic cleansing" when you look at it...
B*gger flags! Cornwalls a lovely county but flags don't solve problems.
Rant over......
Nice add-ons. Every little detail enhances the Sim
