Where can i get Class 47/7s in ScotRail Executive and MK3 in the same livery? I seen them featured in the screenshots thread but its locked now. Im also interested in the WHL green MK1 stock and Eastfield 37s.

These High Quality mk2e coaches come with 'Scotrail' livery. There are also some great RW2 'Scotrail' liveries in the uktrainsim library for the class 47 (default), but they don't work with TSX mode enabled (as the cab view is all funny looking). This issue can be fixed for using the repaints in TSX mode, but you need to be quite handy with RWTools.

There are four 47s in Scotrail livery including two 47/7s here:

That's all stock I did for Vulcan. Not sure what the plans for release are, though it would be logical to release them with Mark's WHL route. There's progress shots somewhere.
I live in hope of a DBSO

Mk3s in Scotrail? Was there ever such a thing?

Very much so, the E-G Push-Pulls being formed of Mk3 stock inbetween a 47/7 and a DBSO. They also appeared on Aberdeen services, as evidenced by the pic in the link above.

They also had the unique composite mk3 COs. The 158s displaced them, mk3s went to the WCML and the DBSOs to Norwich - London services.
I'd love to know if the 47/7s were rerated back to their original hp to clear 100.

Weren't the 47/7s from these services transferred to NSE for Paddington - Oxford services, to replace the Class 50s? If so I'd guess they'd still be capable of 100 mph?

I suspect they were as it wasn't the horseys in the engine that gave them the oomph for 100mph running it was the traction motor gear ratios, if they had been set for 95mph running but were running at over 100mph for the amount of time the 47/7s were I suspect some serious traction motor failures would have occured... It took the Scottish Region quite a while to get it right though...
