For UK simmers and hopefully many overseas, this is pretty much The Grail!

Looks like a fantastic route! Going to keep my eye on this one!

RETB is an unique signalling system used only in UK, and one of the reasons to get the whole route.

also, number of features of Class 37 locomotive is so huge:

Completely new exterior model
Unique simulated power and braking performance
Sounds recorded from the real locomotive
Automatic seasonal fitting of snowploughs
Snow dynamically cleared from snowdrifts on the route
Accurate logos and 3D nameplates automatically applied to all 25 Scottish locomotives
Operating exterior fuel tank gauges
Dynamically animated cooling fan
4 Individual opening cabin doors separate in each cabin visible externally and internally
4 Individual opening cabin windows separate in each cabin visible externally and internally
4 Individual movable cabin glare screens separate in each cabin visible externally and internally
4 Individually selectable wipers in each cabin animated externally and internally
2 individually controlled cabin lights visible externally and internally
Instrumentation lighting
Instrumentation dimming
hotplate for warming you lentil soup!
Fire alarm test
Functional cabin radio and RETB CDU as described opposite
Two tone horn
Eight cabin camera positions to select your preferred driving position (!)

This is looking very NICE! Will be nice to explore the country of my ancestors by rail.

I'm really looking forward to this route.
It brings back good memories from the 80s visiting Glasgow Queen Street Station and Eastfield depot with my dad watching the 37/4s roaring away. The large logo blue with the stags head branding really suited them.
The 156 sprinters that replaced them were such a disappointment.

I'm not normally one for British stuff but I must say this looks and sounds fantastic. On my bucket list for sure.

I'd love to know how they achieved that.
This would make awesome scenarios on Donner Pass.

good morning,
just reading on the forum of UKTrainsim:
---------------------------------------------------
Keith has just posted on Facebook announcing the release date for this will be next Thursday (2nd October). I've got to admit I'm really looking forward to getting this!

I hope that it is right

Cool, I have a video of the Class 37.

Possibly with some awesome shots of the route.

I wonder how the Class 37 sounds will be compared to AP's.

good morning,
it is ready to go :
