Sittingbourne to Sheerness cab ride

Hello all,

After doing a long period of cab rides with narration on MSTS, which I no longer use, I've experimented with moving the cab ride collection to Railworks. My initial plan was to do the HS1 Faversham to St Pancras route, but unsure of the reception, I tried a small line, and so the Sittingbourne to Sheerness cab ride was drawn up.

I'm quite proud of this release, and I hope you like it too. Please excuse my narration, I do have problems with speech in reading terms, and took me a while to get the narration to a reasonable level where you could understand it (The amount of times I had to re-do me saying Rochester!)

If people like it, I shall certainly carry on with the bigger project, Faversham to St Pancras.

For those who haven't seen my MSTS cab rides, the concept is basically a cab ride with informative narration, a bit like your average Video125 cab ride. Not only does it show the routes and stock off, it also provides some historic and general information on the lines it covers.


Enjoy!

James.

So you are the brilliant individual behind the Far North cab ride :D. I love those videos, and really look forward to any you do for Railworks 8)

Thank you guys for the support!

It took a while so I'm expecting the HS1 to be a bit longer. Driving with no HUD was a lot easier too, generally using the sound of the GEC motors to tell what speed I am doing (most useful to find the 15 and 20 mph mark!)

I have the old script I started ages ago that got as far as Sittingbourne Western Junction, so just continuing with that now.
