I don't think so. Most likely for the same reason there are no NXEC buffets either - mapping issues. And besides, I don't think the XC HSTs have 'real' buffets anymore, they use TSOs rebuilt into a combined first class/second class/buffet, I think?

(IIRC, the HST set in the 'Fag Pack' DLC has updated files that may not have the same mapping issues with the buffet. Maybe RS.com will 'swap out' the default HST model with that at some point, like they did with the original Mk1s, which got swapped for the Falmouth ones in TS2012)

All 4 float over the the first carriage around 10' up.
TSX enabled; all settings on LOW.
Thanks
Jet, not for me?
Just used a the default Class55 on its own and the intakes are in the right place - I then added a coach, restarted and again they were where they should be.
(I also had TSX enabled, low setting, full screen)

Not there all the time. Go to the external view of the engine, 3/4 view front on then move around using the mouse and look over the second carriage of the rake. I was running 'Up for the cup' on New-York.

If I knew how to post a piccy I would do so.

I have just run that scenario (out of the box) for 5 miles and everything, for me anyway, is where it should be?
Try doing a verify to see if you have a corrupted file?
btw, first time I have used the Class55 under TSX; nice!!!

I would like to know when we could expect a fix for the throttle controls on the engines. Its unplayable at the moment.

Merlin, judging by some of the 'comments' this may prove difficult to get running? Although it does seem that XC don't have this unit in there sets now anyway; Google time!!
Your feed back is much appreciated - thank you.

AA is the jagged edges that you see in your picture and causes those pesky dancing effects with overhead cables and fence posts etc, more so with horizontal and vertical lines.

It can be made to appear better by running at twice the resolution and down sizing it to match your monitor - but needs a ton more processing!
FXAA allows a lower setting than above with good results and less processing.

Perhaps it would help contacting support and saying which locomotives/units you're talking about?

Which engines - I have run Class37s, 47s, 66s, 158s, 153s, 166 which, what appear to me anyway, no problems?

But the question you ask can only RSC?!

The 390 and 166 are not working and POSSIBLY the 86.

I can confirm the 86 is working, and I have seen videos featuring the 390. However, I can also confirm that there are problems with the 166 throttle.
