Wow.
They are pretty incredible - you're becoming a bit of a collector aren't you Jon?

That 3rd one reminds me of KRS somehow!

That green PLM loco is an obvious candidate for the ugliest loco thread over at train-sim com.

Hi
Always been into quality......personally I would rather run stunning 'foreign' trains than others just because they are UK outline.
Not sure how Grando selects his prototypes, I suppose its locos he likes.... imagine if he fancied some UK outline.
The third loco proberbly 'looks a little KRS like' because its a bit 'toy' like.... but it actually is an excellent model in MSTS......and has a nice virtual cabview on camera5.
The track textures in the diesel shots are fanastic........unfortunately only at close up and high(ish) angles......looking from the cab they appear a bit blurry.

Cheers
Jon

Highly detailed but highly ugly
I must get those track textures however...

'Fraid I gotta disagree there Mike, bar the first engine - the rest are quite attractive in their own way IMO

Now there I agree, very nice textures they are.

Hi Ali
Sorry I thought you were referring to the third loco.
Trees with shadows have been in MSTS routes for a couple of years, there are also moving trees in some routes.
