What are the chances of Electrostar previews?

[dwilson]

Hello everyone,

The Electrostar series is due for release in April time, and I for one cannot wait, especially for the 357!

I've sent an email to railsimulator.com kindly requesting preview shots. I presume that if everything is going to plan then there must be major development in the Electrostar series by now?

What do you think the chances of them agreeing to my request and sending out screenshots of what we can expect?

The chances are slim I reckon, i'll probably be told to wait for an official press release, but what do the rest of you think?

Hi dwilson,

The chances are probably slim, but hey, don't forget they have got a very strong workforce so if for example 1 person covers each class instead of 1 person doing the pack it would be alot quicker out of RSC Towers. Just be calm and wait I'm personally looking forward to the 156, 70, Woking - Portsmouth and as yourself this pack.

All The Best,

James

I can't wait for the 377, the thought of that motor sound is mouth drooling, and of course the Portsmouth line

Me too, although I'm more waiting for the 375 personally (and 376 even though I hate the real one - the seats ) because of my own fictional route which I may release sometime in the next century, lol

personally myself, i'm looking forward to the 153, 156, Electrostar and the new Edinburgh to Glasgow route

Interesting replies everyone, I did receive an email from RW and they said that snippets are released via their facebook page, and that if they did, it depends on if the individual artist wants to and how busy they are.

Fingers crossed!

Itching for this pack to be released

In the showcase preview newsletter it showed an April release date for the Electrostar as well as the Class 70. I wonder if this is still the case. I think the Electrostar is the add on I'm looking forward to most and I can't wait for some preview material, whenever it arrives!

I reckon if the 156 was released when they'd hoped it would be (Feb according to the showcase) the two mentioned releases will be released round about this time. I know they didn't develop the 156, but time was spent beta testing and undoubtedly various other things that might have limited their time producing the 70 and Electrostars. Impossible to tell really; chances are I'm totally wrong and they might just be hidden away unrevealed to us all!

It looks like it's still being made, but has just been delayed. There was no mention of it in the Summer showcase apart from a paragraph saying that previously announced products will be released also. I hope they release it eventually, but in the interim the other products they're working on sound great.
