I can 100% say i'll be buying the AP one. As above, the only way i'd buy the RSC one(as well as the AP one) is if you get Colchester - Harwich included. Looking forward to this one, no pressure though, better to be right and realistic than rushed.

Sorry, perhaps that should be "Manningtree to Harwich"...

Isn't Manningtree--Harwich covered by the challenge route "The Mayflower Line" ?
Have a look at the UKTS Freepacks, it's available there.

Yeah it is, and whilst it is nice to already have it and also the option to combine scenarios, it'd also be nice to be able to do the run throughout without a break in the middle...?

I imagine the plan is for them to do Harwich to Manningtree at some point, like Sheerness, due to the fact that all the trackwork is included. None of the other branches (other than Braintree and Colchester Town) have trackwork far beyond the end of the scenary.

Looks okay to me although it is a little while since I saw one in the metal since London Midland only have a handful now! The cab certainly looks fine.

That looks very nice. The guys at AP have done a really good job with modelling that.

I think you guys have the wrong thread. The images above are of the RSC Class 321, and not mine or Armstrong Powerhouse's.

Opps well in that case RSC have done a nice job. But making models and route building are two areas where RSC seem to be pretty good most of the time. And I'm still looking forward to seeing more pictures of the AP one

It was mainly to highlight the window weathering, took me quite a long time and still needs tweaking..
Yeah we're certainly getting closer now. There's so many exciting elements of this unit I really can't wait to share- and hopefully, soon at that!

Does it cook the tea and do the washing up?
On a more serious note, I am looking forward to it. It would be nice if you could get it out before your rival gets theirs out.
The cab textures look to be some of the best I have seen so far on train sim.
