a job well done!

Well it was certainly worth the extra few days wait for the latest RailWorks update (104.2b), With a brand new scenario interface and a timetable view scenario writing will be much more easy to get your head round with the latest new tools.

In addition numerous bug fixes one of which is the headlight bug have been rectified. just a word of warning from experience here: If you are using a re-skin of the class 158 (that was not part of the pack) the update will not have touched these. I will write a guide on what to do when i have actually fixed this myself.

this will be welcomed to those of us who drive outside the cab: The addition of 2 new warning icons "Wheel slip & AWS warning:



there have been many other improvements made and would like to take this opportunity to say thank you to the hard work and dedication of everyone involved with making the update.
