And something big(ish). I'm going for a 'he who shall not be named' rework, like the Dutchess was.

Going by my archives there's an 8P, The Britannia, Merchant Navy, a 2-8-0 War Department, a Standard Mogal, Standard 5MT and a Stanier 2-6-4 Tank not been released by Doevtail
For disclosure, I am affiliated with a third party developer however, I do not know anything about any future releases unless I'm working on them and even then, I'd be breaking years worth of built up trust to say anything about it ;-)

The red around the cab made me think it wasn't going to any of the first three but never say never.

The similarities to Sutherland's cab and the maroon exterior visible through the left side window significantly narrows down the number of candidate locos:

I think it has to be a Duchess - the cab window layout is wrong for a Princess Royal, which would be the only other LMS candidate (given the wide firebox). Could be a streamliner (Duchess of Hamilton)?

That's true - no route to run this loco on. Apart from most UK routes in the game.
The A4 loco was released a few years back and was quite popular because they are running today on the modern electrified, in places, railway.

I may be wrong,but I don't think 6229 has those features on it at the moment (and never has in streamlined condition?),I don't know if it ever had air brakes either?

Although an air brake isn't a requirement really for mainline operation :wink:
