Modified DT 61xx Large Prairie BR

[rhysicus1989]

It has to be said, I drove this engine last night and it is one of the first engines ive driven where you can feel the power from the sound, even when the regulator is in first valve the sound is still pretty loud, as it should be, I do find that most locos have too small a volume on the sound of the chuffing in first valve, but that Is my own opinion, I love to hear the engine working hard

a GREAT addition to railworks, taking freeware to the next level!

Yes as the guys above said, you need to have the Falmouth Branch installed and RSC/FalmouthBranch ticked in the developer flyout list or you will get this, very interesting but not a comfortable way to ride

Computers and software do the most unusual and unexpected things sometimes.

The Large Prairie is beautifully done; sounds. colors, textures etc. I have hardly seen a loco in RW with such a nice and realisticily weathered 'coat of paint'. Also I think you have the colors just right, and it really looks like painted metal. Many loco's and trainsets in RW are too brightly colored (look at the the First HSTs and some of the Diesels)
Well done, and thanks much!

92221, does that have your second valve effect? It certainly sounds like it

Many thanks for todays Black liveries. Particularly the rusty crudy one, which oozes character and realism.

Yes I'd like to give second thanks to the BR unlined and lined 61xxs, really good job with them and really do go well with there green cousins and I'm having quite alot of enjoyable having them on Falmouth route, I'm going to ponder over trying to put some basic scenarios together.

You have quite a knack for what I would consider a rather correct way of reskinning the locomotive, getting the colour balance right aswell as the texture styles, it works out right and looks like a working locomotive. Be interesting to see your hand at a few other of the gwr locomotives aswell, premissions permitting of course.
