| LONDON SOUTH COAST |
|
 |  | Europeanbahn presents its new product like the combination of its two best-sellers, London Brighton Express, appeared in 2002, which went from London to Brighton, and West Coastway Express which precisely left Brighton to Porthmouth. This Add one thus covers extremely logically the distance London - Porthmouth |
 |  | This manner to present things could to seem with departure a little risky, commercially speaking, because which intérest could one to find to have in double these two routes if one were already owner of the first, which is my case, even if Europeanbahn specifies that it is added a new branch borrowing the valley of Arun. |
 |  | In fact, one will see that it acts by no means of a simple recombination but indeed of a complete recasting of the line which answers now the criteria of modernity such as one can meet them in the routes freeware in 2006, in this direction, plus nothing to see with the lines of 4 years ago and they is happy! |
 |  | It is besides rather attractive to note "in vivo" the progress achieved during these years and the degree of perfection reached by the recent productions on a game whose base remains anchored in 2001 all the same. Europeanbahn thus did not miss to it stage coach and its route shows it fully |
 |  | when launching of the game, on the basis of the London station of Victoria, one is immediately agreeably surprised by the changes occurred on the level of the decorations, mainly. I had underlined, by presenting here the LBE, frustration in front of the little of wide of the decoration on both sides of the tracks, all this is to be relegated to the museum! One is pleased now to be able to admire a landscape which extends rather far. |
 |  | Best the demonstation is given by it the with dimensions one of Gatwick and its airport, non-existent on the LBE, quite present here including with the passage of planes in the sky, which our creators amateurs do besides for a long time! |
 |  | The remainder is with the endorsement: the buildings modern, are varied, the vegetation is often sumptuous with various and coloured trees. The stations were also worked over again in-depth, they are often very beautiful and in conformity with reality with adequate indication, of the advertisements quite present. |
 |  | Therolling stock delivered with the line also underwent a good cure of renovation and one finds trains perfectly been successful, which is a minimum taking into account the quality of the freeware production of our English friends such as one can find it on the U.K. trainsim, for example. The electrification by a third rail requires adapted stock. |
 |  | Available EMU by Class 319 in delivered Thameslink or Southern, the 377 in Southern also, the 421 "4-IGC" in South Central or Network South. In DMU (diesel), one finds one 171 "turbostar", the 220 "to travel" being able to reach the 200 km/h and small a old one amusing, the 121/960 "bubblecar". all these trains have their original cabin (not always sumptuous!) and of the sights passengers. To note the skimped vision of the track which one has in these cabins through a small pane, very surprising! |
 |  | These trains are quite pleasant to lead even if they are noisy! The activities present (more than one score) exploit relatively well the diversity of the line and the stock in any season with an often important traffic AI. The possibilities of making its own activities are infinite on a line where often at least 4 ways are found, at least on the principal section, it is besides one of large more EC add on. |
 |  | The installation starting from Cd does not make any problem, it is necessary to return a key present on the cover page of the booklet (attention not to lose it!) , then all goes rather quickly. |
 |  | You will have understood it, if you did not acquire of the precedents add on, you can this time catch up with the blow with this one, without hesitation, in particular if, like me, you are amateurs of English routes, not disappointment to be waited on this line, of the hours of pleasant conduits are guaranteed |
 |  | Europeanbahn announces next a add on at the beginning of 2007, West Coast Mainline, then, one can suppose that their glances rather will go the with dimensions one of Railsimulator whose exit is announced in the neighbourhoods of spring 2007. |
