Luxury. Our ZX81 had 1K of RAM and we had to buy a 16k add-on pack.

Happy days!

Such luxury indeed - I had a ZX80 with 1K RAM and, of course, a tape recorder (remember them) to load the programs from.

On the ZX'81, you mean, right? Using an emulator efficiently coded to fit in <16KB RAM, and streaming both program and the data from tapedrive?

Well with the low output resolution available on the attached telly, might work :crazyeyes:

When FNW operated them they worked from Manchester Airport to Blackpool, Barrow & Windermere.
The only section of the Manchester - Liverpool route they have been passed on is Piccadilly to Castlefield Jn (about a mile).
And the units operated in FNW livery - even after moving to ATW just without branding when the contract with FNW expired the units were repainted in to full ATW colours.

I suspect a new welsh route is in the pipeline - I wonder if it could be a Marches Line? - The picture is at Hereford
I meant there were 11 outbased to what is now Northern Rail for internal English workings.

A Welsh marches route would be very welcome, Cardiff to Hereford maybe? we're lacking a full length Welsh route IMO.

Amtrak GE Dash 8-32BWH announced. I have to admit that the Superliners in the screenshot are disgusting, far more than the Phase IVb ones in the Empire Builder pack which are spot on already. I would rather see Horizon fleet cars and a "Cabbage", which essentially is a de-engined F40PH with a baggage door, included with the DLC.

Aren't they waiting until they get licensing from TPE to use their logo? I'm sure I read that somewhere.
Picture on Facebook Rail simulator page! looks like one is in the making!

I think you are a bit confused, someone posted a picture of a 3rd party 185 but isn't made by DTG so has a number of error and poor model etc.

Yeah, that one is a freeware one, by Finchy. It's not the best, but I think it'd make some good AI over the Class 360 reskin that's available. :D
