Why doesn't the 390 come with Virgin livery, since that's the TOC that operates them?
Virgin simply won't allow it.

I do! Livery wise I can't really remember off hand, though there are a few corporate liveries, without logos and stuff.
I'd say it is worth getting
Got myself the Settle & Carlisle and Settle & Carlisle specials
Have had a bit of an issue though. Doing 'Learning the Ropes', and a few minutes in keyboard controls went. Then towards the end, when the alerter sounded the mouse wasn't working wither on the driving thing at the bottom (not sure what it's called) or in the cab to cancel the alarm.
Due to this I couldn't even release the emergency brake and continue.
Any ideas?

I know it comes in the original Regional Railways express, and (de-branded) CT. Was hoping for a FGW livery!
I probably will get it... does it have passenger view?
Just created a scenario with 153399... an hour well spent!
I don't suppose anyone has the 158 add on? If you do, a) would you recommend it, and b) what livieries does it come in?
I strongly recommend it as a unit used across the country.
Liveries have been mentioned. Some that can be downloaded include First Scotrail Barbie, and Salitre, First Great Western, Northern Rail etc.

I've gone for it Also gone for a class 67 too - the included Mark 3 SLEP and Post mark 1s swayed that one for me
I did buy the 390 and it's really rather good. Certainly in terms of performance it goes like the proverbial off a shovel, leave it at maximum power and you'll be doing 155mph pretty quickly. Also in answer to my question above it seems to come with around seven scenarios for WCML North.
Many thanks for the reminder Matt.
I purchased the Edinburgh to Glasgow add on route on Wednesday, as I've always been tempted to do so. Even better at half price.
Also just about to buy the "Portsmouth direct line". I was debating between this and the London to Brighton. Decided to get the Portsmouth, as I used to drive the London to Brighton on MSTS a few years ago, so have limited experience of it, where as Portsmouth is completely new to me.
I've bought a ton of stuff. I was going to hold off on some of it, but then I thought if I do I will be paying much more!
