Possibly the 'default' blue skin from the retired Class 37 pack adapted to the S&C Class 37?

I'm torn between this and BMG's Merchant Navy steamer. Anyone got both?

I can not judge AP Class 37 because I do not have it (yet), but BMG BR (S) Rebuild Merchant Navy class:
Overall quite nice locomotive she is, a wee bit optimistically steaming. Be prepared relief valves will blow out 90% of time when driving if driven in as built condition. Downside poor injectors, if you abobove 60 MPH with some 300 tonnes in tow both injectors need to be opened to keep boiler water level at reasonable values (let say 65%-85%). A quite poor view from cab (both sides) without any chance to spot any track signals from cab. Advantages visually stunning model with various bits and bobs to play, lovely sounds and you feel the power of it.

The S&C 37 doesn't have a working headcode, so can't be that...…….
It's the green 37 from the RSC Class37Pack01 wearing the blue 37's clothes.
I can't recall where it came from, whether it was by someone else or something I threw together but I'm sure there is/was a version in the UKTS library.

I have two in the RSC 37 pack. Named Blue and BR Blue - both with dates in July 2013.

The "Blue" is an early DRS one (without the actual DRS logos).

So a number of people might have this from a pack that was withdrawn a number of years ago
As I previously said about this AP Class 37 Pack 02
"One thing this pack brings is Blue Class 37's with a Headcode Panel in both split box and full versions"
As the alternative is long gone

You also said:
RSC did a Split box 37 - In Green with a Headcode panel and in Blue without but I have not see a Blue version with - until now
You can't include that pack that was withdrawn a number of years ago in your initial statement but discount it in any follow-up.

Can anyone advise on the routes featured in the AP video? (the vid on the product page)
The early part looks like Wherry Lines, but some interesting scenery after 8:00 mins... N Wales Coast??
ETA - is there a list of names posted anywhere??

I'd guess Wherry Lines and London to Brighton, as that's the routes the bundled scenarios are for

The are two Blue 37's is the one in the EULA and one in the BR Blue Pack 01 - Both of which are available and neither have a working headcode panel
So my statement stands "One thing this pack brings is Blue Class 37's with a Headcode Panel in both split box and full versions"

So you want a split box blue 37 reskin of the Kuju model with a working headcode?
That's from 2013, so your statement that we haven't had BR Blue 37s with working headcodes until now is still not 100% accurate.

According to AP's website it has "Accurate acceleration & braking physics."
What are these like - both fully scripted? My current benchmarks are the Shap 47, and AP's own Class 56 Enhancement Pack (on the throttle side only).
