I deserve to win because I have a knack for advanced trains, even if the 205 is a slouche to get up to 90. Also because Armstrong Powerhouse is the GOAT.

The 205 would be a slouch to get to 90mph - Maximum Speed is 75mph.tycoonkid9 wrote:I deserve to win because I have a knack for advanced trains, even if the 205 is a slouche to get up to 90. Also because Armstrong Powerhouse is the GOAT.

Some, yes, but the first batch were originally geared for 90mph, same as VEPs/CIGs. In brief, due to gradients and slow acceleration they removed the center car and re-geared to 75. However, some did make it all the way through with 90mph gearing- such as 1111 and 1133. 1111 also had that thoroughly interesting VEP-style cab, and a ton of changes to the drive system.749006 wrote:The 205 would be a slouch to get to 90mph - Maximum Speed is 75mph.tycoonkid9 wrote:I deserve to win because I have a knack for advanced trains, even if the 205 is a slouche to get up to 90.

I'd like to win as I used to have a 205 - Peugeot one though, not a Thumper.

Did AP replicate the VEP style cab? If not that is a valid excuse why I would not like to win, as they excluded a minor detail when AP put every frigging detail into the Class 40 along with RailrightGatwickSpotting wrote:Some, yes, but the first batch were originally geared for 90mph, same as VEPs/CIGs.

I am amazed at all the people entering this who dont actually own the 205 giving all the comments from the usual people stating how amazing this master piece is on here and steam facebook etc etc i thought you would all have owned this masterpiece already
I own it and its a true work of art so if you dont win this go abd buy it it is amazing

I don't think I should win the 205 because I already have it, but I would definitely like to win a new sound pack!
