We're almost done with the "Ever Readies" - just need to do final tests and finish the soundset. ATO bar displays work Here's L45, L23 and some Turbots as set 620 at Lillie Bridge, including a shot from the front cab of the rear loco. Includes some special lighting and night cab courtesy of MSTS BIN. Best, Jimi

Looking good Jimi, can't wait to add this one to the collection.
On a side note, how are things progessing with the District Line? I'm still enjoying what you've done so far Jimi, Thanks Colin D

David H's photos prompted me to provide an update. The MSTS virtual Batteries and their Turbots will be released this week. A significant amount of work has gone in to these, including the ability to drive from either end cab from either loco in the set. Thanks to "Doc" for getting us the photos, videos and sound recordings that helped make these as realistic as we could. Here's a preview... We're still working on "Number 12" and the R49 stocks.

David - thanks! I have to admit I've had a lot of fun testing and tweaking these and generally shunting wagons around. Being able to switch cabs (either cab, either loco) makes driving and 'seeing what you're doing' much easier. There's a lot of features that won't be apparent until you drive them. Fortunately, the usual detailed Operator's Guide is included to help you get started Darren - indeed! I spotted the analog speedo right away, and a few other changes. Best Jimi (temporarily TransPlant-ed)

Uploaded to UKTS as file ID 16727 - likely available for download in a day or two. Also uploaded to Train-sim.com. Also - any Tram fans - watch out for Richard's Croydon Tramlink stock to be uploaded this week (hopefully). I helped out a bit with the physics, controls and lighting - a very enjoyable side project. See here for more info: forums.uktrainsim.com/viewtopic.php?t=69095Best, Jimi
