NEP2, sometimes some sunset preset mod, can't remember the name but the russians made it i think.

station i think is a combination of the great western station by isambard and a french roof

two questions about the screenshots:

1: what lighting settings/mods did you use?

2: what mod is the station in the 12th screenshot?

ah i see! that shouldn't be a problem, though i see no reason not to have both powercars with their pantograph up

as for the 370-esque idea, it is possible but we'll see where the inspiration takes me. the original 49 and 256 were more of a proof of concept that it's possible to do such silly things and whether or not they'd be popular.

I mean the cabless power units, will you be making an electric drive version, one with a pantograph so you could make a Class 43 version of the Class 370), and one that either doesn't have a panto or one that is folded down, to be used as an additional drive unit for heavy passenger/freight trains with the panto on the cab unit up

@Centurion Think they're referring to third rail AC power. Nonetheless, you cooked on this, as you always do, I'm elated with what you've provided already. Many thanks

one with is included now, i've just not taken screenshots yet. i'm not sure the point of a electric HST without a pantograph?

Will you be making electric power cars, both with and without a panto?

Cursed AF, but love it anyway! Thank you!

That's Cursed

no, it's fictional. the streamlining attempts to prevent friction with the air

This is frictional

maybe in the future

Are you planning any other liveries, such as freight companies?

good point

why not

why

They definitely would!

all we need is a fic skin pack or a what if pack the hst of late are stunning. :)

the headcannon there is like a diesel mk3 APT type deal, and i think they'd look great in RES!

I just realised that we could have some railfreight liveries of these! That'd be cool!

I now like to think that the class 49 is a versatile mixed traffic engine, and the power car is like a B-unit.
Like, the 49 could just pull freight, and start replacing some first gen diesels on freight. I can imagine that they were designed for express passenger work, but ended up also being just as capable for fast freight services.
I can't really make a headcannon for the 256 (which I am guessing is the b-unit thingy).
