Some outstanding work there, pitty it wasnt done in time for us to demo at Workington this weekend, ah well, always next year :D

And just out of curiosity, will the locos have the infamous sound of the diaphram on the air pumps for the brakes, I think that sound sounds up the R&ER locos :)

Cheers...

Robert

Cheers guys, yep it has been a lot of effort, including learning 3d building modelling skills!

Sounds- well they'll have generic sounds unless someone comes forward as that's beyond my abilities......

There is only me and David working on this at the moment and as far as i know neither of us has any idea about how to make a sound set for these locos. If there was a willing volunteer out there then that would be great after all they don't really sound like Flying Scotsman, although neither do the default sounds :D

Plus it would be a good excuse to go to the ratty again.

Keep up the good work

Two subtle changes that have improved the appearance of the whole line

ballast and fencing!

Hi David,

Looks very nice, the ballast edges looks a bit 'straight' to me though, if you could alpha the edges so that it wasn't such a conistent line it would go from very nice, to superb!

I'll have a bash at that Ben- its the first time I've done a track textuure, so its in experimental stages. I want to try and make the sleepers chunkier if possible too, as a lot of R&ER's sleepers are ex BR cut into sections.

Irton Road as modified to suggestions from R&ER staff. Island platform as narrow as I can get it, and plenty of room in the loop for 2 trains. Views are shown in each direction from the bridge. Car park to be laid soon.

Cheers I'm a lot happier with it myself now- detail platform markings to be added later.

For now I'm working on this reskinned from Mike Traves's Brighton Belle set for Ravenglass car park.........

A little update for those of you into the slightly more useless members of the ratty loco fleet.
