keep guessing what it is (update!), and something else

Post by RussellBurgess »

Ok, so you still don't know what it is? well, the next clue is 47x, guess the last digit!
The next clue is to go with the prievous (I have to give to much away!),
"The MLV and GLV's TOPS have a 2 digits in common, and so does this Railcar"

Anyway, to the shots,

And a close up of the bogie;

Yes, I can see everyone is hating it already! :(

Anyway, I thought I'll attach David Babb's unit (aka Buffy), and I created this monster! After spending hours to get the unit to work!

I'd like to ask David, may I upload it?

Ok, to spoil it all, I'll give it away!

Need more to say?
Anyway, I tried to export it, and all I got is "Make sure each name is unique", when they are! :cry:
Why does it happen to me?
Anyone like to try exporting it on my behalf?

Russell, in case it isn't clear - nobody else can see the images you're posting, all we get are broken image markers as presumably whomever hosts your images doesn't permit remote linking.

That's bizarre, I've never been able to see any of Russell's images and got the impression nobody else could either, - never mind then, ignore me :-)

I don't see them, but if I copy the url from the image properties then it works...
Very strange..

As for Rusells request on the 375....as that model was only a quick hack, the current version should be considered as a 'community' version, and as the readme said, repaints are allowed.

Once I'd copied and pasted the urls into another browser and got them loaded, they then appeared in the thread...
