roof shading is wrong

front window in \ and / views is wrong

If you mean the colour of the doors, modern metrolink trams have the turquoise doors, and in my defence, it is a small space to fit in all the colours so I thought I'd make a reasonable compromise which, I feel I did.

Edit: http://img.search.com/a/a3/300px-Metrol ... Eccles.jpg look at this tram for instance

There is no way on earth your colours are turquoise.
Besides, size doesnt matter. The Birmingham Metro tram is just as small and it looks like the real thing..the colours are very good in it.

You may now by all means accuse me of blaming my tools but the TT Palette does not have a good turquoise colour, I found the best alternative that I could. The midland metro was easier because it uses less obscure colours like red and blue which there are loads of in the palette. Metrolink however like to be awkward.

Go on then, find a realistic turquoise in the TTD palette.

Thank you Jonty-comp for that! My point exactly!

Edit: M4rek that looks good. Before you go too far, can you make all the windows grey as that way it will fit in with the set, I know you don't like it but uniformity is better and it will fit in with the TT Style better.

Edit2: A Work in progress of the Nottingham Express Transit (NET), still needs randomisation...

Edit3: I also add an updated tracking table. Alterations: Addition of english electric class tram + trailer and also changed the author of the coronation to m4rek.

ok:

i will change the windows (they are easy to change at any stage of the process, so dont worry...

"also changed the author of the coronation to m4rek."
that makes me feel really big headed... kinda like im a great artist and if i take up a project you trust me to do a better job than what was being done before

and, my coronation class is getting there, being highly impaired by the limiting ttd pallette, which seems to be determined to destroy my confidence by killing my coronation tram
