Looks nice.

I was going to say the red line above the windows is not high enough, but comparing pictures with the prototype show that the windows need to be taller on DTG's model for everything to line up. But you probably already know that.
I think I just fainted!

Just wanted to say Richard, not only are your reskins top notch, but the way you have set up the installation is great for all, beginners and regular users alike making it so easy and quick. Thank you for that

And a very nice reskin it is. :)

Thank you.

I keep having a problem with this reskin.
I have installed it correctly (I think) but when I try to use it in a scenario it crashes.
Went to the PDL and tried swapping a 450 and putting the NSE 442 in it's place by deleting most of the 450's coaches, moving the driving coach with the instructions to the next line and placing the 442 on the track.
The NSE 442 appears but then the computer freezes and the only way out is via Task Manager.

Any one else having a problem?

Thanks

I can't remember exactly which way round it is, and not near a PC to check, but the 450 coaches are either classed as coaches or locomotives....if the 442 is the opposite to this that could explain the problem. Can you place a 442 in the scenario, forget moving the instructions for now, without bother?

I solved the problem by reinstalling the 442 reskin then running the BAT file which does the hard work and everything is ok :)

Last time I had put the 415 EPB reskins on and then the 442 before running the 415 BAT file.
I remember now the running of the 442 BAT file was shorter than the 415 file.
I think my installing of both at the same time upset it slightly.

Alls fine now and again thanks to Richard Fletcher for an excellent reskin. :)
