Class 86 - Class 86 426 / E3195 BR Retro Blue
Built to haul trains on the then newly electrified West Coast Main Line, from London Euston, to Birmingham, Crewe, Manchester Piccadilly, Liverpool and later Preston and Glasgow the Class 86 was a stalwart on the WCML.
In 1987, to mark the 21st annivesary of Inter City, BR repainted 86426 into a retro blue livery as it would have worn at birth. Requirements: Train Simulator: Class 86 Loco Add-On available here Armstrong Powerhouse Class 86 Enhancement Pack available here Created by Matthew Wilson |
Class 318 Livery Patch
This patch provides a far more realistic shade of cream in the Crimson & Cream variants of the Class 318. It also matches the cream applied to the VP Class 320 liveries (see below) using the AP Class 321 EMU Pack.
Also improved is the correct colouring of the ScotRail swoosh on the SPT old variant. This overwrites the AP supplied liveries. To uninstall simply re-run the AP installer. Requirement: Armstrong Powerhouse/GU Studios Class 318 Pack Patch by: Gary Lennon |

Class 323 West Midlands area Reskin and Scenario Pack 2.0
The 43 Class 323 were built by Hunslet Transportation Projects and Holec between 1992 and 1995. Entering service in 1994, the class were among the last trains to enter service with British Rail pre privatisation.
The units were designed to operate on busy urban commuter lines in and around Birmingham and Manchester, areas in which they remain in service to this day. 17 from the 43 are in service with West Midlands Railway but these will be replaced by Class 730's in 2024. The plan for some of the displaced units is that they will be cascaded to Northern. This is an updated pack and contains representations of every livery worn by the Class 323 EMU in the West Midlands region fleet from introduction in 1993 through to the current day. Since the first version of this pack was released and only this year, West Midlands Railway have reliveried 323221 into a Retro Centro livery, this is included in the pack Each livery is completed with high definition decals, some optional branding and custom numbering in livery accurate positions and fonts. Original light clusters have been simulated along with the original backlit LCD destination screens for older variants. All liveries come complete with a Quick Drive consist of 3 or 6 vehicles (except the one-off BTP liveries). Ben Penhalagan (Major Wales Design) assisted greatly with custom scripting which is carried forward to this new updated pack. Also carried forward are some the crisp graphics for the BTP variants that are the hallmark of Lewis Clowes. Steve Green has provided route modifications for signalling, track direction and custom Quick Drives that feature highly accurate AI. Lastly he has very generously permitted the inclusion of his custom sound pack to improve the audio of the unit which captures the distinctive acceleration or deceleration generated by the traction electronics. Also Golden Goldsmith Scenarios for his selection of bundled scenarios. Other credits are contained the comprehensive manual which also contains information on the requirements for the stock and bundled scenarios. Updated 3rd September 2023 Before you install this pack there is a need to remove version one, failure to do so will result in file conflicts and quite frankly a mess! - We have provided a tool to remove version one.

Rainhill Trials - Rocket 150 Class 86 Liveries
In 1980 the Rocket 150 celebration was held to mark the 150th Anniversary of the trials.
The event was also attended by a number of locomotives of varying age who had been involved in the development of the railway. As part of the celebration, British Rail had two Class 86 locomotives 86214 Sans Pareil and 86235 Novelty painted in a variation of the Large Logo Rail Blue livery where the BR logo was replaced by Rocket 150 motif on a yellow background. Matthew Wilson has recreated these iconic liveries for Train Simulator Classic. Requirements:
Train Simulator: Class 86 Loco Add-On available here Armstrong Powerhouse Class 86 Enhancement Pack available here Armstrong Powerhouse Class 87 Locomotive available here Please note that the AP Class 87 is only required to correctly show the cross-arm pantograph on 86214 - if you don't own the pack and want to use the reskin then edit the running number in scenario editor and replace ';p=cross' with ';p=old'.

Class 86 EP and Class 87 Tap Change Edit
What does it do?
This changes the tap change key on the Class 86 EP and Class 87 from being 'hold down U' whilst tapping, to 'press U to tap'. Essentially, this edit creates a new 'tap changer mode' which can be toggled by pressing the U key. Some may find it is a lot easier to just press 'U' once, then use A/D to tap as you'd like, instead of having to press both U+A/U+D to tap. This also means you can use the xBox controller with the Class 86 and Class 87! Requirements: Class 87 Locomotive Pack by Armstrong Powerhouse DTG Class 86 Add On Class 86 Enhancement Pack by Armstrong Powerhouse It only necessary to have the requirements pertaining to loco you wish to use the mod on. For example, of you don't own the 87 and want to use it on the 86 only, then the mod will still work, but you must have the DTG base pack and the AP EP. |
