Star, That's What They Call You

Post by pjt1974 »

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 ;-)

Such elegant locos, especially without the outside steam pipes - and I'm an LMS fan!

Absolutely brilliant! I've always wanted to see one of Churchward's masterpieces in trainsimulator, and now we are getting two!

Excellent news and a certain buy for me! The last ‘Star’ (4056 Princess Margaret) lasted until October 1957, so I hope Skyhook will follow Victory Games’ example and give us more than a single variant so that we can have the later GWR and BR versions as well, with outside steam pipes, different housing for the inside cylinders, top lamp iron bracket moved to smokebox door, and 4000-gallon tender.

The other one to last into 1957 was Glastonbury Abbey,I've seen a photo of it on a Portsmouth - Oxford train just before it was withdrawn
