New Locomotives

[Jord]

I was just wondering does anybody know when the 20, 56 and i just realised a 90 is WIP so anybody have an idea when these will be released?

Also with the 20 will you be driving Cab first and Nose first? As the nose first will be more of a challenge going round right bends coming up to signals etc

Cheers and can't wait to try them out.

Well you can find info about them at these sites:

CLass 56 http://www.bvetmd.co.uk/news.htm

The Class 20 and the Class 90 will not be released for a while.

For the latest up to date information about those trains and other WIP trains and routes please visit the BVE Railnetwork forum at http://www.bverailnetwork.co.uk/community/index.php

Thanks

What routes do you think they would run on?

 

[Jordy]

The 90 will be ideal for NWM, the 20 could also be used here on a Flask train, or on any route as a charter. The 56 is suitable for NWM and Clarendon, there are probably others too!

I can`t wait for the london liverpool street route.
Hope to see a class 86 315 321 on that route.

Hi mparsonz,

The Great Eastern Mainline was being developed by Zane Saxton but is currently on hold. As for rolling stock, we have the following either planned or currently WIP:

Class 90, 170/2, 313/0, 321/3, 360, Mk2 DBSO, Mk3 DVT.

We have other rolling either planned or WIP. For more information, please take a look at our UK Trains WIP Database.

Thanks.

Spoke to Zane a while back, and the 20 will be cab end driven. Like you say, nose end driving would be very difficult, and hard to simulate in BVE.

I think form the POV of being useful, the slab end is better - as, IIRC, the gauges and controls are in easy view, hence you can have your speedo etc in.

no no no. It says London to Liverpool Street. I think someone may have misread the Watford Junction to Rugby route. You can't get trains along the ECML to Liverpool can you?

London Liverpool Street is in London, and is the start/termini for "one" services including the Great Eastern mainline.

 

[LabRatAndy]

No Liverpool Street is definitely in London, and it's the London terminus of the Great Eastern Main Line.
