This is basically a question to pete is there anyway you can release the 377 nightcab it would go so well with the Blighton - Treston Park night route.

I do not plan to release any of these, plainly because they are made by me, therefore people do not want to give permission (thanks to those who have though (mainly Steve Green)) and i do not think anyone would be too interested in them.
Okay, here we go:

A site you didnt think you'd see? A class 50 working the hourly service to Hattle. Recognise the cab ;)
Image

A rare site, caused by a de-railment near Bristol. All trains were diverted to BNS:
Image

This cab doesnt work with BVE. you get used to the Grey Bar though.
This is a Class 52 Western working a Summer Railtour in the early 90's.
Image

Here is a Class 91 on a Sleeper Express Service. This cab comes from the MK4 DVT (from John Owen), but i use it also for the Class 91:
Image

The famous 377, working a night shift towards Hattle:
Image

A Class 321 leaves Blighton with a local, stopping service:
Image

A class 465 speeds through the night on this Semi-Fast service:
Image

An X-Country HST on one of its last journeys, hearing for BNS.
I think there is an alternate Night HST in Progress somewhere.
Image

A train from the north usually seen in Leeds. Class 333, number 333011 speeds North on a special working.
Image

A Class 66 passing through Edinborough Waverly with a freight:
Image

A Scotrail 158 leaves Waverly. This one has got a corrupt "panel.CFG", hence the deformity of the cab.
Image

A view from inside the train that split the Train world in 2:
Image

Other Classes I did were:
(the reason no screens is because I made a program that wipes out any .CFG file. Unfortunatly I forgot to protect my BVE Folder, and did not make back-ups before hand. The cabs are done, just needs the .CFG file replacing).
143 (Updated Panel and Passenger View)
150-2 (Night Panel)
153 (Night Panel)
EuroStar (Completed Day Panel, Night was planned, but lost the whole lot)
325- New panel and Sounds. The panel (from scratch) had begun.
ICE2- Work on the Panel had begun
Deltic- The guy who was making this seems to have gone somewhere, so I started my own.
HST- I did about 3 different versions of these. One Modern, one 90's, and one from the 80's.
Updates- to classes 158 and 87. They were done :)

All the "New" classes you see here came with Working AWS and a Night/Day Panel. Some has Passenger Views Planned.
I do not mean this to be a "show-off" thing, its just maybe it was time i showed people wome of my work? All of them could potentially be released, except the ones that involve work from John Owen.

Will it be on http://www.bvetrains.co.uk as well? Would be ideal (especially for newcomers) having the two class 377s on the same site.

I will send it to Anthony, so its on the list, but I fear, like many, it will be said "yes, thats where its going", but it wont ever get there.
Although this is just plainly because life things get in the way, but then again, was it wise to take on such a project?
Personally, I think a regular news blipper like Damon Cox could, and should help out. Reguarly update the site, add all these new trains and things.
There are many trains that should be on there, and the authors have said they will be, but, i dont see them?
Hmm, So, the answer is, i can only do half of getting it there, but due to my rep in the bve "community" then i doubt it will be.

If you do not have premium here (why not?!) then i shall put it on my site for a few days, direct link here.

I have over 15GB of monthly bandwidth consumption to consider as well as time. ;) Also the BVE Trains site wasn't originally designed as a portal to the world of BVE train downloads in the UK, more a convenient one-stop shop for the trains developed by Paul Robins and myself, Robert Glass and later Steve Green, which in turn freed up server space on our main sites for the all important routes.

I am prepared to upload them, however it'll be up to you to provide the text for the download pages including all credits and terms of usage, the technical details about the trains, suitable screenshots/photos that are the correct size and format, etc. They'll also be 'unsupported' in that if anyone has a problem with them you might have to deal with any enquiries or technical support yourself.

I'm not delaying any train's release on the site btw, apart from your trains, to the best of my knowledge I haven't been given any direct request to release anything yet!

Cheers,
Anthony.

Sorry if this is a bit late but I have only just seen this thread. Pete, is it possible for you to post a screenie of the 153 Night Cab? And also, could you make the corrupted cfg.cab file on the photorealistic 158 work properly? This would be great!! :D :D

Thanks Alot :)

Hello all.
*Some* trains have been released. They are over at my downloads section. If all goes well, they will go on here for some users to. All require work im afraid, but I have made it as easy as possible.

Visit http://www.wizzyworld.com/downloads to get to them. They are under the Misc>BVE Section, you'll see it because it has a nice yellow NEW pointing at you.

Feedback please!
Pete
