Hi all.

Just a thank you too all the support and helpful hints. A couple of changes have been made since our last blog post. So don't worry we're listening to every comment made.

Thank you

So whats next phil? The Cab? I wonder if you guys are able to do cab signals for this game as it is very important in real life on the NEC to know what is coming next that is out of visual range.

Yeah, cab signals are a feature of the NEC.
This is what Stephen means Phil:http://wapedia.mobi/en/Cab_signalling
It's a sytem which repeats and displays the signals on the line.

Yep. Here is one from the NEC. This is what is on the Electrics like the AEM7. I think the Acela Express and HHP8 have something more advanced. Here are some more info on that for American Locomotives.

Let us know if you need anything else.


oh make sure you check wiki for tech data. wiki isn't the greatest when it comes to the truth, but in this case the data is right.

Well I think I might have exhausted my search. The only other photos i can give you is the ones from MSTS which is pretty much on the money. Sorry if some of these are small.

Brilliant stuff! Thanks!

I'm building the cab view next. So keep up the great work peps! I'll send some updates soon on my build here.

Also a big thanks to all who supported and supplied photo references (even spending their own money!) to make this my first truck build.

!*cheers*!
