Looking forward to this one :grin:

Looking abit closer at the dirty woodhead reskins for the black 5, it does seem that the Port Road B5 is going to be that one with various weathering levels, the riverts ain't modelled but are on the actual skin texture as thought they may have been, but RSC has added safety valve blow off effects to the Port Road's black 5 so its a nice edition. Worse comes to worse I give Matt a poke and ask him to do a sound patch for the PR fives :D

That would be lovely. I can't get enough of driving his Woodhead B5 mod.

Which IMHO remains the biggest gap in UK steam.
If only all problems on the big railway could simply be TAB'd past...

Perhaps you would maybe know then if the rest of the model is new or simply reskinned?

I'm afraid that's a negative! But I WILL add my own sounds to this after release!

Interesting..... always happy to hear new sounds, but it'd have to be pretty amazing to 'out do' Matt's soundset 8)
Why couldn't the steam loco sit down? - Because he had a tender behind.

You can identify between the 2 immediately,without knowing the numbers, because the Clans have considerably narrower barrels and taller chimneys and domes than the Brits. You can see the difference clearly at 0:48 with a Clan and Brit face to face.

Please - Britannia...not "Brittania" !!!
Ah woops, sorry.

Section from the stock blog for Western Lines today:
In the pack, Western Lines of Scotland comes with three Black 5 4-6-0 steam locomotives ranging from lightly weathered to seriously weathered and probably bound for the scrapheap. We felt that this would add a real character to the line. No trains on this line are polished clean, everything is in some state of wear, it's just a question of how much.

A new addition to the Black 5 locomotive is a BR Type 06 Snow Plough which is fitted optionally. It sits under the front buffer beam and gives the familiar locomotive a slightly new and unfamiliar look that will add extra flavour to your winter scenes.


Coaching stock included is the BR Maroon Mark 1 coaching set, with the addition of an RMB coach and again, it's all been lightly weathered, so they don't look like any of your existing maroon Mark 1 coaches. In the pack you will find the FK, SK, RMB, BG and BSK coaches. As well as adding the first class passenger view, we've also added a "head out rail enthusiasts" view to the SK coach which gives a fantastic view of the locomotive up at the front of the train!

For freight stock, there is a huge selection to pick from, with four different BR Standard Vans, six different plank wagons, four different mineral wagons, four different milk vans, brake vans, container flats and so forth. They've all been varied from anything you've got already and you'll be surprised at how much of a different a new coat of paint, dirt and grime can really bring this stock to life on the route.
So that is pretty much what they added, further to this they have done quickdrive for everything and added various different start and stop locations, one notable one they mentioned was a quickdrive starting from opposite side of carlisle and avoiding the citadel station and join the mainline after going through Kingsmoor. They seem to have also added a BSK which people were asking for awhile to in the coaching stock and a out of window view from the SK coach which is what their more recent screenshots were debutting on facebook at the weekend gone.

As a un-informed yank from the left coast I have to ask what exactly all of the initials used with the coach stock actually mean.

Well, that sounds pretty nice to me. I appreciate the facelift and inclusion of numerous freight wagons in particular.
