Looks like a lot of hard work has gone into this Ben. Very good. I've seen some other interesting miniature railway stuff in this software before, but cannot recall where.

The tide seems to have gone out a long way on Romney marsh in your virtual version :D

Thanks for the comments - The terraforming hasnt been finished yet, which is why the tide seems to be a long way out ;)

You probably saw some other stuff for it at my site www.bubblesrailways.co.nr and www.uktrainsim.com which has loads of stuff for MSTS

Just been on your site Ben. The cabview looks amazing! Congratulations are due to Andrew for it ;) I can't wait for the pack to be released! Any ideas on a date/timescale for completion yet?

Well here is the remaining jobs:

1) Get final trackwork
2) Lay RH&DR specific scenery (Stations, Bridges etc.)
3) Lay non-specific RH&DR scenery (houses etc.)
4) Finish stock (locos and coaches)
5) Sort out a printers
6) Sounds
7) Cabview

As you can see...quite a lot to do yet! But im hoping for a 1st half 2007 launch but anything could happen yet...Ill try and keep you posted :D

There is currently a delay, so the simple answer is no, however in the next few weeks we may have some news on where we are going with it....

Sorry for the delay....
