Right, now its time for loco development

excellent hehe, really looking foreward to those Tim

i must say tho, the coaches are excellent, is great fun hauling a few of them on Barmouth- Ruabon behind one of BA's Manor's, up the long climb out of Dolgelley, then coasting fast down the other side once you're over the top, fantastic wheel clatter sounds

Wrong shade of green

Nice screenshots though, especially from the new "BunnyCam" (before it quickly became BunnyPieCam).

A "proper" green manor will be on its way as soon as I've finished it

Heh. Don't try that at home.

Nice shots though, esp the two taken from the road bridge as the train enter Ruabon.

lol, thanks for the comments both

just a few more, (hope you dont mind me posting all these) is just such a great route and stock that i seem to have gone a bit shutter happy,

somthing a little more sedate this time, maybe not a very prototypical train formation but hey, lol

Tim-- Beautiful set of coaches --a glorious sight to behold tearing along the sea wall track behind a King or Castle , near Dawlish .

One quick query--- you refer to 2 carriage views--I get one with "5" view---how is the other obtained--is there a modified "views" setup in use ?
Cheers

MSTS just picks the first coach from the front with a passenger view, so to get the other passenger view you need to do one of the following:

Take the first coach with the passenger view away, and replace with a similar spare. This means the next coach with a passenger view is now the one that gets selected. The readme file shows which models are spares, and which ones have passenger views.

Rearrange the consist order so the coach with the required passenger view is nearest the front.

Set up the a reverse consist - MSTS will automatically use the passenger view that is normally towards the rear of the train.

Many thanks Tim --I never cease to be amazed by the extent of my ignorance

Cheers
