It would be interesting to see what C would do though with regards to Swindon. After all, VXC used to run a "VT0" before Operation Princess (don't worry, I'd never heard of it either until roughly when I first came on here) down to Swindon. Should the Worcester Parkway project ever come through, it would be even more interesting...

Good call with aborting Three Counties, especially if running down to Brighton. Someone from Sussex would probably consider the Southern Counties - East & West Sussex and Surrey - to be the Three Counties, and would get mixed up. The previous mention of the northern Home Counties is the usual home of the "Three Counties" name.

I have created a prototypical livery for it in trainz - it is on a mk3 coach. I will post a link soon.

I never knew virgin ran a service to Swindon.

Sounds good! Will it be for TRS2010 or all of them?


You have trainz?! what's your username?

I'm making it in 2006 so it can be compatible with 06,TC1/2/3,09,10. Unfortunately, I don't know if I will be able to release it though :|

Dang :(

I only have 04 so I shan't be able to see it. Could you provide a screenshot (Print Screen if need be) at some stage please?

Looks good! :)

The first route I ever made had to fit on one grid square. I couldn't work out how to expand the map! Even then though it had about eight stations... in one 720x720 metre square. Two of which involved an MML HST running around in circles :lol:

That's just a plan for an n gauge layout that me and my dad are going to make. I have made much bigger routes. When first started trainz I had the same problem as you :) the n gauge layout takes up less than a 1/6 of a baseboard - didy!

Ivo, I am so glad that I'm not the only one who still only has TRS2004! :lol:
I had excactly the same problem when I first bought it. Took me AGES to find the dropdown box for extending the grids! Even when I did though, all my routes remained terrible!

Unfortunately, I will be deinstalling TRS2004 shortly as Railworks 2 is in the post. But that doesn't mean I won't forget all the highly enjoyable hours I've spent messing around on the Surveyor! :lol:
