Has anyone had much luck reskinning these? i know some excellent skins are available, but i'm looking to add some weathering and for the moment at least can't quite get my head around the textures?

Sorry if it's seen as dragging up an old thread, but doesn't warrant a new thread, and i can't think of anywhere else to ask this.

Afternoon everyone,

Whilst not trying to detract from the excellent 56XX model for Railworks, I've just viewed the DVD being given away with the current Railway Magazine.
The DVD gives an insight into driving both a 56XX (5619 on the NNR) and a Class 31.
The Driver is shown by the Instructor how to change the Reverser position. This is carried out with the Regulator open at various points, which is at variance with the RW version. Can this setting be changed at all?

Very Best Wishes,
Bob.

You can move the reverser with the regulator open. Just not full open.

I tried it with 35% and it works. (See my earlier post of 21 June). As far as I can see, this is the max. Anything, even slightly, over 35% won't work
