I don't deserve to win.

I deserve to win because I have a knack for advanced trains, even if the 205 is a slouche to get up to 90. Also because Armstrong Powerhouse is the GOAT.

The 205 would be a slouch to get to 90mph - Maximum Speed is 75mph.

I would like to win because I used to travel to work on one of these.

I want to win because my username is cool

Why oh why did I buy it already!!!

Some, yes, but the first batch were originally geared for 90mph, same as VEPs/CIGs. In brief, due to gradients and slow acceleration they removed the center car and re-geared to 75. However, some did make it all the way through with 90mph gearing- such as 1111 and 1133. 1111 also had that thoroughly interesting VEP-style cab, and a ton of changes to the drive system.

I'd like to win as I used to have a 205 - Peugeot one though, not a Thumper.

Did AP replicate the VEP style cab? If not that is a valid excuse why I would not like to win, as they excluded a minor detail when AP put every frigging detail into the Class 40 along with Railright
