You can't. Same folder name. Same file names.

Hmmm yes these models do seem to be quite confusing to be honest.

a. 1-3 can be created as per the original model, with tiny tanks.
b. 1-9+14 can be created as per the original model but with tanks 9 inches higher
c. 4-6 and 10-13 can be created as per the new model with bigger tanks
d. 12 and 16 can be created with even bigger tanks and a square cab

15 is unique

a. has to be dark green with red lining not yellow lining.

b and c. can be dark green, indian red or ailsa green (depending on engine withdrawl dates) no.4 can be maroon, no.10+13 can be dark green with yellow lining. In the case of NO.14 is can be the same as above or Manx Northern Red aswell, although should run as No.3 in this guise.

d. 12 has to be blue in this guise and 16 has to be Indian Red or Dark Green.

Hope this clears things up a bit.

A lot of the earlier model that were on UKTS have been deleted though and superseeded by new models, of a better standard, like my (awaiting approval) mods to Reg's originals, these will outright replace the old ones.

The 6,11,12,13 models that David R has uploaded i did not know about and these may have file name clashes with my models of the same locos, but they are the same loco and you can choose which version you want. MY other models do not clash with exisiting ones, as I have added something ot the name to differ.

First two of mine now available..........

Isle of Man Railway No.6 Peveril [944917 bytes] - IOM6.zip
File ID: 13557 Date: 04 Dec 2005 - 379 Downloads

Isle of Man Railway No.5 Mona [945102 bytes] - IOM5.zip
File ID: 13556 Date: 04 Dec 2005 - 355 Downloads

Mona and Peveril in Indian Red as seen in the 1960s. The models replace william (FRSimplex's) earlier models with the new eng file and textures. I think William has used my new eng files to redo his ailsa green locos as well, so these should appear soon as well as more of mine.

She did carry Ailsa green, she just never steamed in that guise.

Does anyone know which loco's i should do in Ailsa green as i get confused, and the locos i should use?
Cheers,
William

Well there's...........

(4 and 5- already done) 10,11,12,13 and 15 (she did wear it for a short time, though a little different to it on the Peacocks- I'll dig up a picture). Also as Murray states, 16 did wear it for display purposes and looked very nice in it too.

I'd second that. A very interesting picture, thanks for sharing it with us.

It does look nice although it does appear to a driven into a flag shop and theres a ground signal attached to the front footplate whats that all about.

probably a southern region destination disk !

The Isle of Man used to place red boards on the last vehicles in trainsets, failing a red board something like that would probably have sufficed after all it was the Isle of Man!

If Cale's just worked in on a train theres a chance that could be why, simply an LV board. If not then I believe during the 60's some specials ran with such boards aswell, maybe this would explain the flags. This is more likely methinks and the board was just denoting a special working.

I'm not expert, but Chris is and he told me that 15 only had Eilsa green for one season - if so that photo is extremely rare! I've seen a B/W photo of her in Green (you can tell by the light shade of the grey) but never in colour.

Many thanks for sharing it.
