It would be more accurate(for the era the route seems to be set in anyway) for the Black 5 to be in LMS colours as well as BR colours then at least the yard at Fort Bill can be filled with a variety of stock not just 37s https://www.flickr.com/photos/72123072@N04/8758868908 as for JTs K4 hopefully it will have the RETB scripting added in someway so it can be used in the route properly.

I nearly fell off my seat when I saw this! Newcastle - Edinburgh and now this! All my Christmases coming at once! And that new Class 37 looks fabulous too.

I see Keith Ross is working with Thomson Interactive on this route. What a combination of route building talent that is!

OMG!! The screenshots on this look amazing... i really cant wait for the new class 37 either cause it is by far my favorite type of diesel traction especially over the WHL!
I have to say I'm disgusted by this. I hate 37's and the Scottish ones in particular. All that charging up beautiful mountain passes, sweeping past lochs, storming through tunnels - even going over concrete viaducts for gods sake! What kind of loon would want that?

I'm very much looking forward to this, diesels notwithstanding.

Looking at the poster's username on the forum.... I have a feeling he's joking, that he applied humour to his post, that he is, so to say, trying to pull our legs...

Well I hope the ability to open one of the many working windows or doors makes the exterior sounds audible 'in cab' as some of Richard Armstrongs sound packs do, if so, we are in for a real treat in immersiveness!
Very much looking forward to this

Just had a look at the details list for this route - looks absolutely amazing. With the new signalling, trees, foliage, signage, buildings, train details etc etc this looks as if it will reinvigorate the simulator, and will be a totally new and immersive driving experience. I don't know the area at all, but it'll be an instant purchase for me. Well done to the guys involved.

hopefully it will be recorded from a proper 37/4 too. I've noticed when I did these on the Valleys, some seem to have a very distinctive 'droning' sound compared to some I've heard. What I mean by that is that when the power handle is open it's supplemented by a sort of deep 'vrrroooommmmmm...vrrrooooooooommmmmm' it the power is off, it sort of winds down with it, not sure exactly what it is, but can be heard here as an example:
