The Kingsbridge Branch

[ZRE802]

This is one great route!

A mainline train from Bristol arrives at Brent, the junction to the Kingsbridge branch, behind Acton Hall



Here's our train, GWR #5551 and 3 Suburban Carriages



A few miles out of Brent, on our way to Kingsbridge

Hope you don't mind if I add my two pennies worth Ash...

Of course not Lee - it's not my thread, I just started it!
Nice shot, by the way.

I only download the route last night and drove on it today, I have a soft spot for branch lines and DMUs especially since I rode a 109 on the Llangollen.

The route is as scenic and wonderful as Westvale.

Well done everybody ! Some superbly realistic shots on what is clearly a beautifully realised and convincing route. For me it reinforces what I've always thought was one of the most important advantages MSTS still has over the opposition, and that boils down to the colours and contours of the countryside seeming so much softer and more realistic than they often look on RS screenshots, and that's without looking at the sometimes very threatening skies on RS.

Absolutely no axe to grind - just that MSTS looks so like the old steam railways I remember so well - long may it continue !

Mixed train at Gara Bridge...




Is anyone else having signalling problems at Gara Bridge? I can't get past there in the Activities, eternal red light.

Absolutely stunning route, this: just the right feel, whether you prefer steam or diesel

So that's where Elvis has been all this time...

Lovely shots Ash, and many thanks to Reg for another great looking route. I'm just a sucker for steam branches.
