What are those Japanese words on the left hand cab view?

I think it's a number

yeh it is a number, if you look at this page, which is where ben steelix got his cabiew images from you can see it clearer.

I never have release dates, but I can say that as soon as the passenger view is done it'll be ready for release.

The passenger view so far - this will place you at the front of the train in the DMSL coach:

It'll look better sitting in the seat - You'll be sitting on the left next to the window, obviously facing the way it's facing in that screenshot.

Also, to do with realism, I've just made 2 different coaches for the 156, DMS and DMSL, even though the differences are small between the 2.

That seriously is amazing work, reminds of Central Trains old livery. The textures and model look out of this world

Yes that seriously is amazing, your work never ceases to amaze me! Well done.

That passenger view is superb!

How do you go about making something like that? I wouldn't mind trying my hand at it.

Well, I use Train Sim Modeler.
Anyway, more:

I had a problem getting it into msts, it wouldn't go to the passenger view if the model had over around 4000 polys. So far its about 3600, I got rid of the 2 seats on the right that weren't visible, so that freed a lot of polys up.
