Downloaded the latest London Underground package, but some issues have been spotted and needs to be sorted.
When pressing the '3' button for the external view when using the LU1996TS, you're up in the sky!

Also, LU1996B appears to still use the 51xxx numbering, as in 1995TS. The numbering don't appear to be matching: for example, 30494 would be 96044 in the case of LU1996A, while 30595 would be 51645 in the case of LU1996B.

SPT 1973TS has made a re-appearance, but then they would foul the platforms on Glasgow V2 map (as expected anyway). Fictional Glasgow Subway extension perhaps?

Well I didn't notice, that there's an update with london underground stock. I downloaded it just a few moments ago
Well the new 2009 stock is really long. much MUCH longer than S8 stock and honestly, it's good, that you put a digital speedometer with km/h units into older stock, which has mph speedometer. That mph speedometer would confuse me a lot if that digital speedometer wouldn't be there
Don't judge me! As a person from continental Europe, I am used to metric units, not to imperial units!

I like having both Speed dials, helps me define my normal speed (MPH) to the games speed(KM/H)

The difference is just a few centimeters.... :D

I know; The UK officially went metric a long time ago.... Yet they still keep using MPH. Luckily, the 2009 stock already works on KM/H (found that out on photo's of the cab). The whole simulator works in metric too (luckily!), so I just had to find the conversion betweem meters per second to miles per hour, to program the digital displays and dials which I wanted (/needed) to show in MPH.



And the Glasgow version of the 73 stock; I figured; all the files are already in the package, and it took me some effort to make it.... Might as well make it usable again. Only not on the Glasgow network, as it is too wide for that. ;)

No wonder why the creation of a US map would take a lifetime to create. (Imperial system is best system. Don't @ me :P) I really would like to see the BART system as the first broad gauge metro system for the sim.

LU stocks are nice but now let's model the Overground.

It's on my whishlist (especially as it switches between 3rd rail and overhead wires on route, and partially shares track with London Underground lines too). Already spend a few hours on some early steps ;)
