Whilst I appreciate that Ross, it simply isn't correct. The other folks at AP have done most of the work on this, the visual model is the smallest part of building a highly accurate train for TS2016. Mr. Armstrong and Nicolas Schichan have already put far more work into the product than I have- so really you should be thanking them. Also, I do take slight offense to "just hosting it on AP" - I've been part of Armstrong Powerhouse for many years now, and the work I do should be considered that of AP, not credit of or to an individual.

i like to credit everyone who makes any DLC as the time effort and attention to detail is incredible in all of the products made by all developers be it yourself, AP, JT, DTG< SSS etc etc i admire all the hard work everyone does so thank you to yourself and of course the other developers for making this much wanted DLC it really is appreciated and a day one purchase for me like many others so thank you

That's probably the finest texturing and weathering work I've ever seen. :o

Incredible.

That is an absolutely beautiful piece of work. Near photo realism there.

Not a massive fan of units, but that careworn cab and an EE lump just behind is too tempting!

That is, without a shadow of a doubt, the most accurate and realistic looking cab I have EVER seen in any simulator. And to think that those beautiful controls will be moveable and allow user inteaction as well? Phenomenal.

Looks good jordi has really done the thumper justice. I love how you can change the numbers just like the dtg 416 was always a nice feature on that. Looking forward to this one I must say
