John Rogan has been busy on not just one, but NINE whole new skins for openBVE exteriors for the class 47 loco.
John has modelled numbers 47216, 47299, 47480, 47541, 47704, 47773, 47841, 47971 and D1616 in liveries ranging from BR Blue to Inter City and
Scottish region colours. Click the image to download the pack.
As the range of exteriors on BVE Pages grows, we’ve taken the opportunity to split the downloads onto different pages. Visit the openBVE exteriors page to see what I mean!
BVE Pages is the new home for this classic route by Tom Beevers.
The route depicts the eastbound run of the Piccadilly line of the London Underground. The whole run is just under an hour and takes place in the 1973 tube stock.
Visit the download page for details.
As this early screenshot and Adam Harrison’s video show, Alan Wheeler continues to make good progress with his eagerly awaited Twickenham to Waterloo third rail electrified route.
The openBVE screenie (top) shows class 47 Pride of Carlisle passing beneath the detailed footbridge at Twickenham while the video shows the detail of the track and pointwork already completed.
Although both are included in route downloads, they’ve not been made available to route builders until now. The water tower is based on the one at the west end of Newcastle Central. The bus is a preserved DAF SB220 that has been returned to its original livery. Click on the images to go to the relevant download pages.
