Luxury. Our ZX81 had 1K of RAM and we had to buy a 16k add-on pack.

Such luxury indeed - I had a ZX80 with 1K RAM and, of course, a tape recorder (remember them) to load the programs from.yerkes wrote:tractor2015 wrote:God, that made me feel old...............so did my first onedeltic1981 wrote:Lol my dad's computer had 16k of ram.

Don't tell me - if he turns off dynamic lighting and reduces water quality he can run TS2016 at 95fps with no tile stutter..............................TransportSteve wrote:My 84 year old Dad's still using his.......
On the ZX'81, you mean, right? Using an emulator efficiently coded to fit in <16KB RAM, and streaming both program and the data from tapedrive?tractor2015 wrote:Don't tell me - if he turns off dynamic lighting and reduces water quality he can run TS2016 at 95fps with no tile stutter..............................TransportSteve wrote:My 84 year old Dad's still using his.......
I meant there were 11 outbased to what is now Northern Rail for internal English workings.749006 wrote:All the 175 units were, and still are, based in England - Chester is their home depot.
When FNW operated them they worked from Manchester Airport to Blackpool, Barrow & Windermere.
The only section of the Manchester - Liverpool route they have been passed on is Piccadilly to Castlefield Jn (about a mile).
And the units operated in FNW livery - even after moving to ATW just without branding when the contract with FNW expired the units were repainted in to full ATW colours.
I suspect a new welsh route is in the pipeline - I wonder if it could be a Marches Line? - The picture is at Hereford

I think you are a bit confused, someone posted a picture of a 3rd party 185 but isn't made by DTG so has a number of error and poor model etc.37180sirdyfed wrote:Picture on Facebook Rail simulator page! looks like one is in the making!Class92001 wrote:Aren't they waiting until they get licensing from TPE to use their logo?
