Ok peeps, good news for all you people wanting British Trains. Me, andel and IA have decided to team up and bring you lot a BR set. This means that (sorry) the downloads will be taken down and re-posted bearing the BR tag instead on my initials.

The new naming system means that all of the BR set is easily selectible in the scenario editor and also when going through your objdata folder e.g

BR Class 320 (SPT) << scenario editor name
BR320SPT << .dat name

So, keep checking back on the topic for updates (i 'll try to post them on the title but dont blame me if i dont

). Any comments on this dont hesitate to post

What one has on one's laptop...

Connex 375
Southern 171
Metro 333
Class 168
Class 321 Anglia
Class 423 Centro (I think)
Class 150 Centro
Class 153 (Name your area)

So... here I go...

w0000 dont have to do the 333 i have on my pc atm

Were the 375's about under Connex??? I dont remember!

I saw a few of them today, looked nice considering they are from the Turbo/Electrostar family.
Whats (un)interesting to note is that they have space for pantograph addition.

I think that a 153 in one of the unique liveries (ie, advertising) would be a good bet.

And when you say 321 Anglia, what do you mean? 321 First livery, or 321 'One' livery? There never were Anglia 321's...

erm - One E'tn Livery...

375 - yes they were all the same livery ... Connex went bust when they had just bought them....

So thats the dark grey coloured one then?

The unique liveried 321?

That'd be pretty cool to see actually

Hey guys and gals,

The news of this BR Set is brilliant! I've stumbled accross a few, and they all rock!

On the subject of liveries, how about a nice Regional Railways blue one? Methinks theres a southern bias here, i gotta try and keep the northern end up here!

Oh, and also, are all the mentioned trains (Desiros etc) going to be in this new pack?

Forgive the daft question, and i know i'm gonna get flamed for it! Oh well, life goes on

Cheers, and keep up the good work people!

Bri

They should be yes, depending on whether me, andel or IA gets permission to release them from the original MSTS author. But hopefully we will get that and release them.

Also dont worry about the southern bias, im from scotland so my trains atm will be based on that, and i may make my way down south with a wee stop in the toon

Hey, since you guys are making everything, can you make a nice* 142 in Valley Lines livery?

http://www.therailwaycentre.com/DMU%20p ... alleyLines

Just about every other model I'd want in the game has already been done, now.

*as nice as something made of old bus parts can be

Thats a 143.......a 142 is visibly different

I know, but it was the only shot I could find of one side-on to see all the lovely colours and dragons.

andel · Post by **andel** » 23 Aug 2005 09:13

I've added it to my list of "Things I will do"... I wanna do the 143 later... the 144 is of more interest because it is a 3car... I do have the Heart of Wales 153

Quite nice since i use it everytime i want to escape!

I'd also like to make a 444 desiro as well... and to take over the world... yes... it could all be mine!!!!

Maybe you should ignore that last bit.

At Last! Something well worth looking forward to. Keep up the great work guys, hope this pack arrives soon cos I can't wait to try it!!

Progress Report from Andel Towers...

There has been a significant step forward today.... see the train yard below...

Class 333 was completed, with testing and stats
Class 375 (Connex South Eastern) was completed, with testing and stats
Class 150 (Centro) was completed, with disgust from IA at such an ugly train, testing and stats
Class 153 (Central Trains) was completed, with testing and stats
Class 321 (One Railway) was completed, with testing, coffee, some swearing and stats

Lets add this now to the current list and we have... 7 - trains completed from the IA/Andel Partnership, added on to the goodness knows how many MD has also done...

In the words of Police Chief Wiggum... "Lookin' good, boys, lookin' good"

And he's my trainyard

ps not all of my trains are on it

Illegal_Alien · Post by **Illegal_Alien** » 23 Aug 2005 16:54

That white train on the picture of Andel looks horrible, no i see him ingame. Dont you have a better version?

MjD · Post by **MjD** » 23 Aug 2005 16:58

what palette was used? was it lomoveh or another ones, cos the company colours slightly alter the appearance of some trains

MjD · Post by **MjD** » 23 Aug 2005 17:04

The first 3 release's from the BR Set. Same as old downloads but now named differently.

To do list :-

1. Fix my class 318
2. Make other trains
3. Maybe fix the current releases to change when the trains come into service to be more realistic (due to liveries)

Enjoy!
