Just browsing through the Marketplace and these popped up. Now includes what looks like a panelled slip coach too. Great stuff

A very welcome surprise! Gordon added a 1908 'Toplight' single-ended slip coach (diagram F14) to the set. All in GWR livery and BR carmine & cream, with the slip in C&C as an ex-slip BCK. Installs in MatrixTrains, so no mix-up with the earlier versions under GordonMack.

Once the 'Early Colletts' are released we will have a full and representative collection of ex-GWR coaches in TS2017:

Matrix: 'Toplights', 'Early Colletts', 'Later Colletts' (or 'Sunshine stock') and Hawksworths;

DTG: 'Centenary stock', Autocoach, TPO, Siphon G and 'Later Colletts' (or 'Sunshine stock');

Digital Traction: 'B-set and Siphon G;

Just Trains: Clerestories;

Freeware: Clerestories (UKTS 27235), Autocoach (UKTS 28676), Siphon G and H (http://www.trainsim.com/vbts/tslib.php?searchid=7789647)

Well Marcus. Not quite finished with the GWR myself. Thinking panelled Toplights, Concertina's and Dreadnoughts. Not to mention 70ft Toplights etc. Sort of "Back to the Future" in reverse.

Gordon,

I am glad to hear that! No I am not finished with the GWR (or the other ‘big three’) either, and of course I have my wishlist of stock I would love to see done, but I made up my little list of available GWR coaches to show how much has been added to the sim that I could only dream of only a few years ago.
Yet whenever a new piece rolling stock is announced critics will come forward who will proclaim that a different engine would have been a far better choice or who will deplore why such-and-such variant/coach/livery will not be included. At such times it really seems we are very hard to please! I know we all have our favourites, but sometimes we should look back and see how far we have come, and consider how lucky we are that there are people who will take all the time and trouble it takes to add new stock to Train Simulator.

So, from time to time I will do my bit of pleading for stock I want to see, but that should not keep me from saying thank you to all who continue to work to make me enjoy Train Simulator even more.

Bit of news regarding the LMS P2's. There are not many extant, and the one I need to survey is inaccessible until early in the new year. So first I intend to expand the set to include P1's as well. Second they go on the back burner until I gain sufficient research material to carry on. So what's next? Good question. Standby.

Hi Gordon,
Once again another fine set of Great Way Round coaches,maybe for your next set,you could do a 4 car set of Ex SECR Birdcage coaches.
Or go a bit modern BR Mk1 Griddle Car,RUO,RB,RFO,RSO,RBK,RK,SO,BSOT,they are the most missing Mk1's.
Thank you for all the coaches you have made for us over the past few years I for one appreciate your efforts.
Mike
