Just thinking about the APT and how much i miss it, So i thought to myself, i wonder what it would look like if she had lasted until now, operating with Virgin Trains?

I think it looks good in the Virgin colours. :)

id recommend against repainting the Eurostar. EUKL are extremely protective, and have had objections in the past about reskins of their model. Chris the author is happy to Let EUKL decide as he doesnt want to get sued over it.

It does look quite smart. Not really surprising, as it's shape is not totally alien from a voyager.

Killing APT was one of the stupidest things thatcher ever did.

I think its on Train-Sim.com

THough it was around before the whole Eurostar/Chris incident, so once it was out there it couldnt be stopped.

Basically the entire companies image is based on the 373 train, so having it painted in another TOC's colours doesnt put them in a very good mood.

The readme of the ATP forbid this kind of repaint.

Having seen it on the stock I don't think I was wrong at the time, so I will not be agreeing to this sorry.

(I have a soft spot for the ATP, and out of respect for the poor girl I'm not going let her be defaced)
