Looks great, I do have some questions though regarding your work....

1. Do you have WCE? because even though your Virgin Thunderbirds are fairly new being uploaded in August 2007, could you use the EB model and do the same reskins for it?

2. These are old uploads and I was wondering if you or someone else could work your magic on them on bring them up to date like your other releases :-?

http://uktrainsim.com/filelib-info.php? ... a40d59d4d9 - smarten it up a bit.
http://uktrainsim.com/filelib-info.php? ... a40d59d4d9 - convert this to a 57/3.
http://uktrainsim.com/filelib-info.php? ... a40d59d4d9 - to use the same Anglia livery that was used on the recent 86's that came with the EH2 pack.

Also, I know you're working on the One pack - Will that come with the Thunderbird?

As usual, your work looks great :D

My lords! Nice pair of shove duffs :)

I'm more of a fan of them in their Scottish days....but any chance of number 6 in her NSE days with REALLY ragged ScotRail paintwork and NSE flashes? Basically like this...

Otherwise...keep it up.....perfect for Scottish Captial Express when it happens.

Uh oh, have I opened a can of worms, when I mentioned the word "request". :lol:

In answer to your questions, I wont be touching the EB model.

The old uploads that you have mentioned, i ahve looked at before. I think i tried the anglia one, but it didnt turn out too well from what I remember. I will look into it again though. And tbh I really dont like fictional livieries, nevere really intrested me. :wink:

Ok David, here is 47 706 in Ex-Scotrail, very worn.







I have done more running numbers with varations in weathering, nameplates etc. At the moment I have 47703/706/715/717 and 706 again in Ex-ScotRail, as shown above.

Here is 47715 'Haymarket':



And here is 47717 (left) and 47715 at Waverly station.



I then got a little addicted and decided to some ScotRail Mk.3's on the Superb EHP2 model.





I am looking for some help on these though. The screenshot just show the TSO. Does anyone know what the actual ScotRail formations were for the Mk.3 coaches? Did they have FO's and Resturant coaches? Any info would be greatly apperciated.

Fantastic reskins Anton, I have very happy memories of the late 80s spotting at Waverley (when I was a lad) :D :D :D These will look grand on Scottish Capital Express when it arrives.

Oooh, fetish material Anton :). Any chance of slapping the NSE flashes on 47706 though :oops:

Shoves could be a formation of anything, especially in the later years....Intercity or ScotRail Mk3 TSOs, TFOs, TSOTs and TCOs were the order of the day, with a sprinkling of IC/ScotRail Mk2F and even at times the good ol' ScotRail Mk1 BG!

I remember them running with 4 or 5 Mk3s or Mk2Ds and the Mk2F DBSO, sometimes the 1st class was in a composite Mk3 coach, or a full Mk2D. On the Mk2 rakes, there was often a micro-buffet at one end of a Std Class coach, not sure about the Mk3s though.

Hi Anton

do all your scotrail 47s have flush front ends? Because i know 47706 definatly had the older plated over indented headcode style on both ends,
