Brilliant - that is all very recognisable. Its a pity that the goods yard at Garforth is now a car park.

Hi All, looks a very nice route which one is it? Being from the land of OZ I don't know the areas but am beginning to find a few things along the way .
By the way great shots.

Hi Barrie

The screenshots are from Mid East Plus (MEP) which is a very large revision and update of the original Mid East route. You will find several references to this route on the forums if you search them out..........most references being of the "is it nearly ready yet?" sort

The MEP DVD Package is now entering the final straight, so to speak, however proper testing and putting together a route of this size will probably take months rather than weeks so there still is a bit longer to wait. (There are people far cleverer than me from the MEP team and UKTS working on this aspect of the project at the moment).

As for the era then the route is definitely based in the 70s to 80s however there are a great many things included in the package that both pre and post date this time. For example you will easily be able to run both steam and modern day diesels on the route without it looking too odd.

very similar to the class 303 emu. Am I right in thinking there is a class 124 on Thames-Mersey DVD? I am sure I have seen it before during an activity.

Tim Court's original Trans Pennine units have been around for a long time. I think they were in TM but they definately were in Yorkshire Coast. This is a later version by Tim and as far as I know exclusive to MEP. Dave.

Hi
Yes its Tim's later version of the Class 124 .... it used to be on UKTS, but was withdrawn.
I keep meaning to re-upload it, as Tim gave permission ages ago (unless some else has the time).
I think we have recently had a influx of new MSTS users, who haven't seen it before.
Understandably with the quality of textures, its amazing how old it is.
I believe there is a nice green version, which will be exclusive to the MEP DVD.
Cheers
Jon
