Things have been quiet around here in relation to new rolling stock.
Things have been progressing well on several new models, many of which we have already released, but MT do try to not stay still and will improve work where we think we are able to. Our laurels are not for sitting on unlike some of our other commercial developer colleagues.
I will outline what are plans are for this year.
Firstly, we have built new versions of some of the older stock that was released with GE, but was predates GE by a fair amount.
At the moment, most of the work is centred around the MK3 bodyshell Multiple Unit family.
These will be released as commercial stock packs and will not be "Free Stock Friday" models as they are far more than simple upgrades.
Class 150 DMU
So we have a brand new Class 150 DMU, including the never released 150/0 and 150/1. The 150/2's will replace the existing Class DMU pack and will be available at the same time we release the 150/0 & 150/1 pack. These are totally new models so will not be free upgrades, but to thank our previous customers for thier long term support, anyone purchasing the 150/0 pack who already owned the MT BDMU1: Class 150/2 StockPack will get the upgraded 150/2's included as well. If you don't already own the 150/2's then they will still be available as a stand alone pack. A Regional Rail and Anglia 150/2 will be in GE2.
Class 153 DMU
A completely new model of a class we've never covered before. The 153 will feature all liveries. An Anglia and One version will be in GE2.
Class 508, 313, 315 EMU
Again, a brand new model of this family of EMU's. At this stage we have not decided how this family will be split up, it will depend on how many different liveries they come with. Some 315's will be in GE2.
Class 317 EMU
Another completely new build of the Class 317 family. All variations will be covered including the Class 317/7 Stansted express version. It is likely that there will a Class 317 in modern livery in GE2.
I will post more as it gets to a presentable stage, but the range stretches from a Class 60 to Departmental stock to Heritage DMU's.

Can't wait to see progress on the Class 150/0 pack thats coming and the prospect of a Class 60 pack coming out for MSTS sounds promising too. If you need any high-res photographs of the Class 60's, please let me know as I can ship them over to you if you wish. Just drop me a PM if you are interested .

Hey Guys.
Many thanks for releasing the SCE sector pack, copy ordered and eagerly anticipated. Looking at the amount of rolling stock and activities included its well worth the money.
Purpose of the post though was to enquire about the class 40 that was seen in screenies around the time of the release of SCE, just wondering really if they are going to be released?

With the soon to be released BR Class 153/155 pack, will the Class 155 in MetroTrain livery include the BR logo as seen in this view on the cab sides of the unit? http://britishrailphotosbymichaelmcnich ... 20511.html
