Makingtracks are in the process of producing one.
However it will not be totally free as you will need to purchase the base class 66 pack in order to install the extra liveries. Its well worth it though.

Re: DB schenker 59/66
Just a general question, does anyone know if DBS have painted anymore 66s at all, and if so, which numbers?

Might be wrong here but I think you can do reskins of DB aslong as they are free.

Boy they must have paid a fortune on the design work for that .....NOT! It makes BR Blue look interesting!!! At least BR had a good logo?
I always thought that EWS was one of the best of the post nationalisation colour schemes and looked good on everything from 08's through 37's to 66's. Worked well on the parent company's US loco's too?

I guess we might see a situation in the UK, as has existed for years in the US, where we end up with loco's in a variety of liveries until resprays become due?

Re: DB schenker 59/66
That's been the case for years - look at the amount of 37s and 60s that ran in Loadhaul/Mainline/Trainload Sectors until withdrawl several years after the first EWS repaint.I guess we might see a situation in the UK, as has existed for years in the US, where we end up with loco's in a variety of liveries until resprays become due?

Re: DB schenker 59/66
From the info on the MT forum, I would hazard a guess that it will be released as an add-on to the class 66 stock pack already in existance (like the other liveries).

You pay for the base pack and thats all. All addtional liveries you can download at no cost.bfmvrock01 wrote:that is looking good. so if i get the class 66 pack will i just have to download that when its done or is the train payware aswell?gswindale wrote:and see here http://forums.makingtracks-online.co.uk ... =16&t=3307 for a couple of piccies of it
With regards to the DBS 66's, I would like them to be released with a few numbers rather than just the one.
