And that it is. Excellent.

They don't get to see the same train's everyday like we do. You have to admit for someone on the other side of the world, they do a pretty good job. !*salute*!


RSC should show all assets they are working on way ahead of time so the public can call them on their mistakes. That way they can be fixed long before they are released.

This company completely baffles me at times. **!!bang!!**

If you had a train-sim site to run. Would you hire a 3d GFX designer who knew that they where going to make mistakes. I wouldn't. IMHO I think the best thing RSC can do is to keep releasing content. With all the content that is starting to show up now, things will get better and better. Who knows. Maybe people from other communities will see all the new things we have going and decide to join.

But BN never did just have headlights. They either had headlights with ditchlights or with a strobe.

Calm down. Even I got it wrong and made a 4 light strobe. Then I found this:
