One of my first attempts at a model... (2005)

A model from last years R&ER Stock Pack (2009)

With a bit of practice, the quality does improve.

My apologies. If that is how you feel, I won't try and change that.

I was just trying to advise you not to expect too much.

Ben,

Thanks for the advice but again I have had a go and not prospered from it.
For me I knew that the Wishlist would take a while to get wishes noticed and getting the hang of the program to create models like you shall take some improvement. I was unable to get a copy of TSM or 3DC but I have got Google Sketchup7.Is it still posible to create decent models using that?

I never expect anything, but the wishlist i started in the rolling stock creation section did have 1 or 2 success's, all i can hope is that there is a modeller out there with the same ideas who's perhaps discounted the idea as they felt no one else would be interested

I asume that because of some of the recent messages that the Narrow guage wishlist is closing down.

Then again though, wishes do start of small, someday we may get those models Paul.
I am going to keep trying on the model making front and some day I hope to be as good at modelling as other MSTS modellers out there in the globe.

Thinking again on that. It appears.........................well...........Slim!!!

What about a train simulator route of the Evesham Country park Railway in Evesham, Worcestershire.

One problem with the EVLR is that the only way of turning round on the route is by using the turntable.
I don't think turntables work on MSTS, do they?

They don't no, but that hasn't stopped Romney or Ratty being produced ;)

The turntable at Hythe is avoidable though as a loco has to run round a loop anyway.

I asume then to get the engine turned around you would have to start another Explore route activity?

Yes, I'm guessing Evesham had a run round loop like that at R&ER which runs directly onto a turntable at one end?
