It’s recorded off the bat and uploaded asap, so I did no editing on this one. Β I apologize for moments when I say something wrong or make mistakes. But at least it’s something to get you guys going. πŸ™‚

Any plans on making other norwegian models? I think BM73 and EL18 would be very nice additions to the game.

I’ve thought of doing the type 73 (Signatur), and have started gathering some reference photos. Someone else is also interested in doing it, so we’ll see who’s doing it in the end. If I’m not doing the type 73, I’m going to do the El 18. πŸ™‚

I’m a locomotive engineer for NSB, and those two are my absolutte favourite trains to drive. Gotta love the tilting and comfort of BM73 and the robustness and power of EL18. Although I prefer the look of 73B over 73A, to be honest. It’s just cosmetics though.

If you happen to be able to take some reference photos, that would speed things up. πŸ™‚ Contact me on my email address, post at olahaldor dot net, and we’ll talk! πŸ™‚

They should be yellow, blue and green. Now it’s mixed. I don’t want to be picky but i really have the feeling this whole game was just a hobby build up on a procedural city simulator program they were proud of. Lots and lots of simple ‘basics’ are missing, lots and lots of standards are thrown out of the window. Its so weird.. really. Makes it hard to adapt. I just don’t understand why people keep doing this. Keep standards!

At least the capacity of pessengers is wrong: you wrote 50 and I saw in game there was it just 39 though the purchased has more than one waggon.
