This is already a brilliant set...and it's just going to get better!

I just noticed that too, very exciting

It is fictional and will probably be a replacement for the Class 92, a Overhead and 3rd Rail Electric Loco.

I noticed it too however I could see the use for a fictional 25kv/750v/diesel loco for long distance stuff might be a challenge for pikka to code though.

The only other thing I wanted to ask is if you ever got an answer about bananas not working Pikka?

Since the Metro Cammel DMU is now coded as a dual DMU, would it be possible to add the single unit version as an add-on vehicle?

Possibly in the future, although I'm not terribly keen on the idea.

In other news, you all thought I'd forgotten about these, didn't you?

Stick a bunch of mini-coopers, you might fit an extra car or two

Is that green car in 2nd company colors?

Been a long journey but looks like it's finally 'done' or nearly, excited as ever to try out the new release

Well my questions have been answered by the latest wiki update. The Bidwell Tripworker is an electric replacement for the EE Shunter, EE Type 1, and BR Type JB. Makes more sense than replacing the Class 92 (which needs no replacement) though electrifying all those far-flung freight lines will hurt somewhat...

Well, you've still got the 66 and 67 too.

They can always be replaced by trucks instead

Are the details of what replaces what in the wiki for every vehicle? Alternatively is there an image which shows the progression?

They are in the wiki for every vehicle, but it's really subjective and just there to give people an idea.

Well, I was wondering how difficult it would be to make a diagram showing the suggestions... It seems it's a slightly more complex problem than I thought...

One of the pantograph car orientations for the ABB Class 325 has a white pixel attached to it

Well spotted, madam.

0.2.0 is now released! File attached to this post; still waiting for the fruitshop to get itself fixed up.

• Added the AEC Railbus, Brush Class 92, Bidwell Tripworker, Bombardier Voyager, Alstom Pendolino and Hitachi A-Train. All main-set locomotives are now finished!
• Added the Cartic wagon.
• Added the 0-6-0 Tram Engine, 0-6-0 Hunslet, 2-6-2 Prairie and 2-6-2 Ivatt from the add-on grf.
• Added andythenorth's wagons from the add-on grf.
• Corrected running cost for Multiple Units.
• Added random colours to Vehicles cargo on Flat Wagon.
• Added Lumber/Wood Products as allowable cargo for Timber Wagon.

We're getting into release candidate territory here, so any bug reports or questions would be warmly received. I'm particularly interested in hearing from anyone using this set with FIRS, ECS, or other newgrf industry sets.

Edit; first bug, the A-Train and Pendolino's running costs are wrong (slightly too high for Pendolino, much too high for A-Train) in the buy menu (but correct for a built train).

Thank you for your hard work Pikka! (and the artists as well!)
Just a couple of things, I was wondering if the an A train to simulate the Bi-mode version of the super express would be release as I gather the current one is based on the class 395.
Also are you still having problems uploading to Bananas?

Well, not really based on the 395. UKRS's A-Train is a purely hypothetical possible outcome of the IEP which may bear no resemblance to the actual trains we'll see in 5 years' time. AFAIA, in the real world, the diesel and "bi-mode" concepts have been canned, with only the electric and possibly a hybrid version now required.

Also are you still having problems uploading to Bananas?

I am, but Bananamen are looking into it.

I noticed the addition the other day.

This set just gets better and better, Thanks guys. It is my fav rail grf.

I'll wait til it is on Bananas/Content Download to get it.

Dude I've never said this before but I love this set!!!

It doesn't seem to work on OpenTTD 1.1.2,
