Another great stream from Alan tonight. Wherry lines first then a good run on the VDL showing off the night lighting. As Darren said the C69 is just as feature rich as the D78, in fact if you include the brake test switch on the offside console, even more. It doesn't have a raisable weak field flag though. When they refurbed these WF was left permanently engaged. What Darren meant by trying out a deep tube simulation was that in fact the Piccadilly tunnels came about because we were going to be working on a recreation of the Northern Line. Richard created those splines for it. So it was an opportunity to try them out and see how they looked along with deep tube platforms. We got the tube from Barons Court to Earls Court and decided one station was not enough, we just had to put in another........................hence Gloucester Road. Great fun to drive. We really hope that someone who has expressed the interest creates the rest of the Piccadilly route with it. We've arguably built the hardest part. It definitely was. Thanks for the extra info about the C69 as well . Interesting - I would love to see the Northern Line done, but only if you can afford the time and effort to do it! I would hope that someone does make the rest of the Picc., purely because that could lead to more and more of the Underground being made for TS. The District, Piccadilly, and Met. are all in the game now (essentially, we have a wait for the Met.) -Peter

Somewhere on the forum someone mentioned something happening tonight for the VDL - I know it isn't the release (9.9.2019), and I assume it is another live stream - can someone confirm what this is please? Thanks.

Thanks. -Peter I presumed that it was the trailer and release date announcement. But I don’t know 🤷♂️
