The train in Spain: RENFE UT 470

[JohnM1945]

Newly released on railsim.es are two versions of a RENFE EMU, the UT 470, by Jose Antonio Camara. They are freely available to anyone (thanks, Jose...) but you do need to register with railsim.es first.

If you haven't explored this site before, you'll find high quality routes and stock - well worth browsing. A little work is sometimes needed to garner all the assets for Spanish routes but the scenic results are well worth it.

The Automotor Renfe UT470 V1.0 is to be found at http://www.railsim.es/libreriarw/download.php?id=143.

Kind regards,

Is it a Standard Gauge Model - If I use it on a European route will the wheels overhang the track ?

No. It is Iberian gauge.
I have already indicated in features in my previous message:

Sorry, but obviously, yes.

Sorry - missed the bit about the Gauge.
I know of Iberian Gauge having travelled around Portugal a lot.
