I love the smell of a steam engine! I find how they work so fascinating as well! However, I also quite like the smell of diesel!! :lol: When it comes to pretty, rural railways in the heart of the country, I would say anything but a steamer is out of place. However, you can't beat the...

Hi! Just curious if anyone knows how the door at the front of the unit on 375/377 (Southeastern and Southern) works when connected to another unit and of the cab layout! I have been on 375's when two units are coupled together and you can walk through the units through the front doors, so you...

Hi guys! Haven't posted on this forum in a long while, I'm sort of getting back into BVE! Are there any trains around that feature a Westinghouse braking system? I know that older London Underground trains (pre 1938 stock) only had a Westinghouse brake, and all stocks up to 1967 stock had...

I got it to do that!! I found a video on Youtube of someone on a Pic train, then recorded the announcement into Windows Sound Recorder and replaced the "klaxon0.wav" file with it! Now when I press the normal horn button it plays "This is a Piccadilly Line service..... to Cockfosters!" Very...

Is that first section of the Jubilee nearing completion?

I think it would be unlikely that IL would want the 72's, because even the 72's are much more complicated trains to maintain than the 38's, and the IL don't have the skills nor the equipment necessary to maintain them. I sincerely hope that when the 38's 'give up' it won't be the end of the IL.

Well done on the 1973 unrefurb - looks great! I found that site http://www.underground-history.co.uk of great interest and to anyone who has an interest in the disused stations of the LU I highly recommend you pay a visit to this site - it's a very interesting read! Regards Tom

Hi! Everytime I go into London I can guarantee I'll bump into Tox! I've seen a couple of Tox07's as well as the older Tox06's. His tags can even be found on buses as well as on the tube trains and tracks. There's plenty of different tags in London but out of all of them Tox is certainly...

Hi! I downloaded the free demo of Bus Driver, liked it and then I bought it! It really isn't bad for £16 and it's the first game of its type that I've seen and liked. It's an excellent game - I just wish there were more Tiers! Tom

I've got a holiday home in Eastbourne!:evil: lol The district line looks excellent! I'm looking forward to this as well as the Jubilee Line!

I've just got a new laptop and it runs BVE incredibly well. It's an HP dv2188ea with an Intel Centrino Duo (1.83ghz) processor, 100gb hard drive, 2.00gb of ram with an nVidia Geforce Go 7200 graphics card running with XP Media Center. BVE runs very smoothly indeed!

It is still available in some of the budget games shelves in places like Game, HMV, Virgin etc. Also you can purchase it from http://www.amazon.co.uk, http://www.hmv.co.uk and http://www.virginmegastore.co.uk, and quite a few others! I haven't found anywhere where you can just download it, I...

Thanks! Followed your advice and completed the scenario in 8 months (game months!!)

yes it is! I haven't tried it with trams so i'll try that! Would you put the steel mill - factory branch on a completely seperate track to the line that delivers the coal and iron ore, or would you make it one continuous track? I've tried lots of things but I get my percentage up to about...
