Is that what Leeds trainshed is like? The number of times I've been through there and have never looked up.

Looking very good.

I still enjoy the current Caldervale, so really looking forward to this.

Excellent.

Hi
Not exactly....but as previously posted some "poetic" licence must be allowed as otherwise everything has to be custom built.
Generally speaking I think the overall effect of Leeds station looks excellent.
Cheers

That Trainshed is in fact, I believe the Barlow Trainshed from London St Pancras. However, it all looks great. Well done guys.

Hi
You are quite right...that 3d model is indeed the Barlow Trainshed.
It has appeared on a few routes, in various guises....but unfortunately never at St Pancras...because no one has built that route.
I suggested its use, as its a superb model, and helps gives the feeling of a big grand station IMO.
Cheers
Jon

It is also being used on the Metrolink route as 'G-Mex'

I don't think that alters anything I said.

No not at all Jon. Just thought I would let users know. In fact I do agree with you that it should be used on St Pancras and it is a shame that is isn't!

Also used at Liverpool Lime Street on Thames Mersey and so on. Loads of things, but very good at representing any large Victorian/Edwardian station anywhere, since its a nice, versatile model.

Looks fantastic anyway and definitely worth waiting for. I just couldn't remember what the real Leeds looks like, despite being a Yorkshireman living in Lancashire that passes through everytime I visit the folks.

Keep up the goodwork, looking forward to re-enacting one of my regular journeys from the drivers perspective.
