While you're at it can you do a refurbished loco in plain BR blue, Like Neptune and Warspite and a few others were originally out shopped after their referb'?

Many thanks.

Nicely timed for payday, I've got the Meshtools version but I always thought the Rail Blue Pre Tops version was a little bit washed out livery wise.

I can.. But I won't. Not anytime soon at least. I'm up to my neck in requests for various things and just the slightest bit overwhelmed. :crazyeyes:

Hmmm, just a silly question really, but, Class 50's have 4 exhaust emission slats on the roof, I cannot see anything clearly from the photographs on Paul's website, has he created all 4, or, couldn't he squeeze them all on the model and just put 2 on, can anyone confirm, please ??

Thanks.

They are there, although only two have emitters for smoke, that's what you might be seeing.

Tried to get the AP engine sounds working but for some reason they cut out completely at 85% so I went back to the IHH sound. I did manage to get the more authentic AP horn sound working, although there was an "Bell" section which I had to remove, otherwise both the class 50 and 56 horns sounded at the same time!

Rabid, any chance of an idiots guide to how you got the AP horn working? I'm no rivet counter but a 56 horn on a class 50 just ain't right and spoils what is otherwise a great add on

It was the angle of the shot, you couldn't see the whole area of the roof clearly, anyway, thanks a lot for your response, young Bill.

The sounds for the IHH 50 sound very much like the AP Class 50 sounds, another fact is that the "B" Button is set up for the slow speed control function the same as it is on the Class 56 model.

That's interesting - I tried pressing B and the emergency brakes went on!

I think you have to be stationary, with the reverser in forward and brakes off, then you hit the B for the SSC to work.
At least that's how it works on the 56 as far as I recall.

No you don't have to be stationary to apply the SCC i was moving slowly and tried the B Button and the SCC took over and applied the brakes until it reached 1mph.
