Do you mean my route? If you do, don't worry, my route wont be available till mid-may at the earliest, mainly because the RE is becomeing very juddery around caverswall road, and tends to crash a lot if I move to quickly. It dosen't seem to affect the running of the route in Trainsim though, so all should be fine.

Yep, and incase you're wondering, FRS will be doing a version of NCB 7754 on Tim's Pannier, and BR7MT has done a version using the brilliant SVR pannier.

FRS if your planning to do Monckton No. 1 here is the loco in its current condition on the Embsay & Bolton abbey steam railway in a pic I took last summer.....

Click the image to zoom in

as can be seen there are a few detail differences it has the large headlight and coned funnel. These could not be replicated using Paul Gausden's J94 as this has the traditional funnel and no big headlight. In my opinion these features mark it as different to other J94s, as this is how it ran in the 70s in NCB service. But it probably ran in similar condition to the MSTS J94 at one time so the reskin wonm't be unauthentic, but the MSTS version will not be as it is now..

Just wanted to make that clear

Hi David

I am already aware of this, so when FRS has finished the repaint (hopefully this week), then I will send it to Paul who has agreed to make the neccesary changes.

Thanks for pointing it out though, and I am sure that pic will help FRS

Does anyone have a pic of the number plate?

Christopher125 · Post by **Christopher125** » Sun Mar 28, 2004 7:24 pm

Dont you mean name plate?

davidaward · Post by **davidaward** » Sun Mar 28, 2004 7:35 pm

Sorry but these are the best I can find, cut down from my pics. the builders/numberplate is the same largely as the one on Paul's austeritys already done. Glad tohere of the modifications, looking forward to seeing it. The loco does look different and on the mainly J94 operated E&BASR thats needed.

Actually I don't think the nameplate should be too hard to do as it is a straight one, I've made straight ones in Paint, as long as a suitable font could be found

PS the shot of Mockton 1 was my desktop background for a bit

Hi

Dont worry people, this route is still forging ahead, sorry for the lack of updates, I was just finishing off the last piece of coursework before my GCSE's, so revision excepted I now have nothing to stop me from carrying on

I have made some very good progress with Blythe Bridge, which, with the addition of about 150backdrops now looks like a sprawling town. Would anyone like to see some screenshots? Also, I hope you reskinners haven't abandoned your foxfield reskins, as my Inbox has become a bit quiet lately...

Thanks for name plates, Monkton should (hopfuly) be finished this evening.

Then have to be sent of to decapod via Chris then transported back over to me for uploading. Hopefully, Chris will take a upload pic for it while the loco is running on Foxfield!?
