Yes, I seem to remember he did something, but I don't think he thought it good enough for public release?

Can't remeber what model he done it for, might of been the 45?

Thanks Bill, I've been waiting a long time for this fix, much appreciated. THe Class 40 is one of my favourites too. I wonder if the 317s wipers could be made to work? Just a thought.

Not with the current mesh I'm afraid. However it is on my list of "things to do" to upgrade this model for Railworks, and when I do that I'll add animated wipers.

Thank you Bill for this fix.

It works for me, with one little problem remaining: both wipers run from the outside, but from within the cab only the left one runs.

I am using the AP version.

That's how it's supposed to be since the Class 40 is using the Class 37 cab. Class 37 only 1 wiper works.

Apollogies for hi-jacking the thread here, but i was wondering if/when you do update the class 317, are you also planning on doing the 317/2 style with the smoother cab roof?
