Hey Bruce,
Thanks for posting those screenshots. Which route is this? I don't recognize it, but it has narrow gauge track!!

As for where you can get it...
Nowhere yet! I plan on releasing three locos at once. It will be within the next week though, just tweaking a few things first!

Hope you don't mind the intrusion of some more caps. Apologies for the lack of thumbnails.

"Exe" in original livery...

"Taw" in Southern Railway Livery...

Cheers, Chris

Chris, the loco looks absolutely superb.

Cheers

Ah...

Chris offered me L&B Coach drawings, and as it would be silly to make two I leave it you... Although I'd like to see the L&B types done as well.

chris i know you are planning to do the maning wardles {yeo, exe, taw,lew} but are you also planning lyn the 2-4-2 baldwin loco which was rather unsucessful. To find more out about the current l&B company go to

Hi All,

Thanks for all the comments and interest.

I plan to release the following next week...

"Yeo" and "Taw" in identical SR livery (together in 1 installer)
"Exe" in original livery and rear coal bunker (1 installer)
"Lew" in SR livery (1 installer)

As for the baldwin, I have no plans to do the lcoo at the present time. Well urm, I have the plans, but I am not planning to do it!!!
Personally, I'm not a great fan of how the loco looks.

If anyone wants the plans, i've got them!

Anyway, Cheers,

Chris

Chris
thanks for the information i would have a go at the Lynton and barnstaple route but i would need help with the buildings and putting down a narrow gauge texture and if any one needed photos of the surviving buildings so they could help make the buildings next time i am down there i could get photos. thanks colin
