Lancaster622

Hi folks, I was wondering if anyone knows the colours of this locomotive? (1332 of 1913) My thoughts are Black lined in red as the shading of the lining seems to match the buffer beam, with red frames and motion and black wheels? If no one knows I think I will go with that as it sounds nice enough and if someone does come up with the proper one then I can change it then

Plenty of Dragon Rapides flying they are pretty relevant to the 30's

Looking forward to seeing progress on this!

Love the plans! A real inspiration to us who are still finding our way

Interesting project there young sem!

Fantastic work as always Annie!

Loving what you have done with this loco sir!

I can imagine Coventry to make quite an interesting model if done properly, in Pre-Grouping or LMS days in particular. As someone fairly local to the city I will be the first to admit that it is not the jewel in England's crown but perhaps railway wise not so bad? As for catering prices yes £4.50 for a sausage roll is ott but I felt equally taken for a monkey at the Stafford show at the price of a small polystyrene cup of coffee but you know what? I had brought nothing with me and was thirsty so accepted that if I wanted to have a drink that was my option, no one forced me to buy it!

just my 2 pence worth, had enormous fun in Andromeda still not worked out what is supposed to be wrong with it

That is something I am going to have to play test as the C62 in my Japanese Inglenook layout isn't standard to the official Download Station but I am thinking along the lines that worked in FS2004/FSX that as long as you had the actual piece of content that the game is looking for all should be well. In the word of Stallone's Judge Dredd "The theory's sound"

I found the instructions and they are here: https://steamcommuni...s/?id=954348774

Yes, here is to the nest 3 years and beyond! Like the Atlantics name

That is in 2mm?!?!?! Well done sir! It's beautiful!

I know what you mean Annie! Are you as glad as me that you got it? Tonight I started fixing up the branch line and ended up running a freight down it with the 1B class 2-6-4T The only gripe I have is when loaded the load sticks out of the bottom of the van! However it is nice to know that freight trains now have a purpose on the layout rather than just being demo ones such as one would see at a steam gala

Nice work Annie

That looks a bit smart! Some from tonight's stream with the 8G 1111 moves off shed to the turntable at Woodgate Junction Being turned on the turntable with a 9J and D11 looking on Passing Immingham between Alberton and Chatterley After arrival the Ravenstone Station Pilot for the moment is this Sacre 2-4-0T moving up to release 1111 from it's train 1111 'on shed' among it's liveried more in keeping for Ravenstone stablemates with an O4 and D11 flanking and a J11 in front plus an A5 in the background. At this point 1111 is the first engine to travel from the half way point of Woodgate Junction to Ravenstone and also the first locomotive to use both turntables on the route.

I think my main beef is that once you have paid your £8.99/£14.99 etc for all those lovely features the game itself TS20XX even in 64 bit mode able to take full advantage of your system is way to unstable to use regularly - esp for streaming purposes. The biggest problem of course with Payware in relation to bang for buck is for example paying £11.99 for an A2 and getting only 'Blue Peter' in there then having to splash out and extra £2.99 on the remaining 14 members of the class the rest of the gaming community that I have spoken with wonder why we put up with it. Obviously content creators such as Digital Traction do give you a large number of liveries as appropriate to the loco in question and a multitude of numbers making their content more value for money add the amazing features on top and you are laughing! Now to be fair Trainz used to be equally unstable but I have found that the newer version is proving to be very reliable plus the freeware is very easy to access via the DLS and I have found that on my return the quality of model on some of that freeware is equal in detail to the Payware TS stuff. Really it is down to what you want from the sim, either High Detail but the potential for it to go tilt or stability but can't always get the same quality and the realism is down - personally I prefer the stability for streaming and like when it comes to my real world model railway just chill and play trains Now back on topic - Ravenstone actually started out as a place to use the LSWR freeware: Not sure why I had LNWR coaches behind the T3 though!

I have been having a play with Trainz again.... Ravenstone is my LNER based fictional creation that I am building as part of my pretty much daily stream on YoutTube (same username as here) It has however been taken over in parts by some GCR stock! 8A Passing the Engine Shed at Woodgate Junction with a short frieght Here we see 8G, 8K & 9J on shed at Woodgate Junction These and the wagons behind the 8A are the wonderful work of Darlington Works that Annie showed us some pages back I know own several of his payware locomotives and all his freeware and must say I am a very happy customer!

I have only recently discovered this class of diesel, handsome beasts aren't they? Very tempting despite there being no call on the LNER for one it can keep the new Deltic company perhaps

If he made the date of the nationalisation pre 22 then it would work? I like the idea, it could be good to have locos still working in their last pre-grouping liveries and only the new locos in the new national livery.....

Still getting errors when trying to follow the cancel link and as yet still no response via email from Rails. One change though is the error itself!

Myself no I am not complaining about the price just: A - I can't justify a locomotive that would become part of the LMS for that price on my LNER based layout B - the link to cancel is broken and as yet I still have had no reply to my direct email to Rails to tell them that the link was broken and of my intention I haven't seen anyone mention Railroad prices apart from you, the only others have said the J36 is cheaper and another said they will just enjoy the 2 J36's - reel your neck back in good sir
