This update is a new session.

A 9F heading a rake of anhydrite hoppers has come to a halt at Mallerstang. The stricken train was failed an hour earlier because of a problem with the vacuum-brake ejector. The train is blocking the line and another locomotive must be sent to rescue the stranded train and clear the line. Ride with Gus in the rescue loco or jump on board with any of the other trains in the area to see the results of having to work around the blockage in the line.

All the locos in the session have drivers and orders assigned so you can just go along for the ride, or you can kick the drivers out and take over their roles yourself. If you don’t feel confident with that, there will be some further sessions released in the near future with specific roles for you to undertake.

A little later than I hoped, here is our new offering.

This update is a new lorry, namely the Bedford TK.

The TK range replaced the S type in 1959 and was later to be available in a variety of derivatives.

Available with inline four or inline six cylinder petrol and diesel engines the TK was a common sight in the UK throughout most of the 1960s and 1970s, competing with the similar Ford D series.

The three models here are liveried for parcel services operated by British Rail and were created by Andy Kemplen.

Sorry for the long wait, hopefully we'll get back into our stride now.

This update is a new wagon, namely the double bolster wagon.

This comes complete with three levels of weathering, which are randomly selected when you place the wagon, and four new loads which are included in the pack.

You can find a link to the page for the wagons in the 'Flats' section of the 'Additional Wagons' page, which is accessible from the 'Content' page. (Or, as before, use the link from the 'latest content' column on the right).

This update is some replacements for the S&C goods sheds.

These provide texture replacement to enable a single shed to be used in various guises. There are also improved scripts to overcome some of the issues in the current releases.
