Don't forget on the 13th it's also farewell to non high-speed eurostar workings, and farewell to UK's most powerful ever 3rd rail locomotive(3rd rail capability will be removed after the HS1 switchover). :(:(

Hi there, I've done a rather radical redesign of my site http://www.railvideos.co.nr/ The whole thing is built in javascript using the Qooxdoo toolkit. Only part of the content is on the main site, but the UI is broadly complete. Please let me know a) if it works b) what you think of it. The old...

Google Trends is a system which shows how many people use different search terms and where they live. You can find it at http://www.google.com/trends I was playing about with Google Trends the other day when I noticed a few things. Why is it that only British people use the search term 'trains'...

Looks like I'm going to have a free Sunday on the West side of the Severn Estuary pretty soon. Since I don't have much idea of the Train services in that location, which station would be most interesting to go to, variety of Rolling-stock wise? Thanks for your help.

Doesn't that make it worse?

Ok, 2 different sagas here! I will correct the 142 asap. That particular clip is quite short becuase another train came in front of it! The 317 was taken in portrait rather than landscape. I rotated it so it was the right way up using VirtualDub, but Windows Movie Maker which I use for titling...

Hi Folks, I've just launched a new Rail Video site http://www.railvideos.co.nr/ which Jordy has kindly put in the sticky above. Basically I'm trying to collect a video of each class of train on the UK network, so if people wonder 'what does xxx sound/look like?' they can find out. I've also put...

Wow that was quick... you must have posted after the thread appeared but while I was typing the poll !

You never know, one of these days I might get round to building a route. I wondered what sort of route people prefer. Please Vote ;-)

Correct. :cheers: I just thought it was ammusing that there are actually 2 Charing Cross stations on the network!

[EDIT] On what part of the railway network would you find this sign?(Just 'Charing Cross' obviously isn't good enough!)

BVE no longer stands for 'Boso View Express' - it now stands for 'BVE Trainsim'. This seems to be because mackoy realised no one knew what 'Boso View Express' actually meant... :D Reproduced below is a transalation of the announcement

Thanks for your feedback. I made a mistake typing in the release date on the website - I've fixed that now.

Hi, I've released an updated version of the BVE 4 Class 87 with a night cab and improved acceleration. Hopefully you should be able to run it in Maybank on time now! (Unless you are like me and keep getting caught by the TPWS :) ) You can find it at http://www.bve4.co.nr/ Please let me know...

Hi, I'm trying to boost the performance of my Class 87 loco, as some of you may have noticed it hasn't got a hope of reaching 110 mph. I've tried changing the acceleration values and Cuttoff speeds in the Train.dat file editor so there is a reasonably flat curve for the top notch right up to...

Hi, just to let you know the Class 87 scenario on Maybank needs my BVE 4 Class 87 available from http://www.bve4.co.nr however this is not mentioned on the download page.

I would agree with you nitro the power handle is the biggest problem. You may have noticed I only did half of it as beyond that it was just too warped. There is little I can do about this unless I draw new frames from scratch. Most of the existing power handle animations(170,323,158 etc.) are...

If anyone still has problems with the latest version(rc2) please post your graphics card model, colour depth you are using, whether you are using 8 bit or 24 bit panel and what doesen't work. Thanks! :)

The 8-bit version uses paneld8bit.bmp instead of paneld.bmp.

Have you tried switching to the 8-bit version(see drivers manual)?
