Atomic Systems

Can anybody please help with some pictures or information? I have been fiddling with the GWR autocoach and trying to set up a consist with one driving coach and one trailer coach. I want to try and set up a (very) basic front cabview just with a standard cabfile but no moving controls and use the 5 view for the trailing coach driving position. I have done a web search but have had no luck so far. I would appreciate any photos, drawings or other information regarding the driving cab on the autocoach.

Please feel free to email me directly if you so wish.

Regards Jim.

Jim - you have mail... or will have shortly.

I already sent Jim the few rather murky pics I took at Didcot - hope you're sending him something different (and better) Paul!

At last! I have been hoping for these views for quite a while. Will totally change activities.

I have sent some files to Decapod and Saddletank for their opinions and suggestions. I have already done a basic cabview and rear cabview using the internal view of Decapods coach just to get something started. Once the physics are sorted I will attempt a proper cabview.

If it is of any help I drive and teach other people to drive the Autotrailers for the Great Western Society. Didcot.

I can help you identify and understand any of the conrtols if you so wish.

On the subject of auto trailers, but not really MSTS related, does anyone here know what the white stripe painted horizontally across the cab windows is for? I have wondered about this since I built a roxey 'clifton down' set 20 odd years ago. so far I have asked a friend of my dad's who used to work auto trains on the staines west branch, and a gentleman in the cab at didcot, neither of which knew.

.....made by incontinent, yet artistic, seagulls, flying in tight formation?

I dont know what the wite stripes are for either
