Glad you like it Jon :-) Thought you would. Perfect thrashing ground for Maybach music :-)

Very nice environments especially at night.

Keep a good look out the front window between mileposts 82 - 87 on the Swindon - Bath line ;-)
Kindest regards

Hi
Agreed... its a real 'drivers' route .... superb.
I couldn't resist a 50 thrash either .... 50032 (unrefrub) on its way back to the capitol.... in atrocious weather.
I'll check out the night environs next.




















Cheers
Jon

Both set of screenshots with the Class 50 and 52 are amazing, i ran from Bristol to Swindon with the FGW Class 43, i might think about running an Class 47 across the GW Mainline or maybe 60163 Tornado?

And thanks Jon for some very atmospheric shots of the new route extension. It is nice to see members supporting the new routes with screen shots.

We will have the new extensions on show at Ally Pally this weekend assuming my mini-route works out. Going to be testing that tomorrow.
Kindest regards
