Following on from my blog post the other day about the upcoming Class 168/170/171 enhancement pack from Armstrong Powerhouse, further liveries have now been shown along with an announcement detailing the list of features that will be included. They are as follows:
MAIN FEATURES
• 23 liveries
• Higher resolution cab visuals
• Detailed internal & external audio
• Accurate acceleration & braking physics
• Voith T211rzze hydraulic transmission
• Wheelslip Protection (WSP)
• Cooling fan simulation
• Automatic unit numbering
• Dynamic exhaust effects
• Player changeable destination display
• Driver vigilance device (DVD)
'BITS AND BOBS'
• The reverser must be placed in ‘Neutral’ to start the engine.
• If the emergency brake applies, power can only be regained if the power handle is returned to ‘Off’.
• 1 second delay between train passing over AWS magnet and AWS warning sound occurring. The F3/F4 HUD will show the warning immediately so you must wait 1 second before trying to cancel it.
• The headlights only provide illumination before sunrise and after sunset. This is to avoid the unrealistic appearance of projected light in broad daylight.
• If speed rises above 103mph, power will be cut until speed falls below 97mph and the combined power handle is placed in the ‘Off/Release’ position.
• When the doors are open, full brake pressure is applied and the ‘Door Interlock Lost’ indicator light illuminates.
• Notched combined power handle; 7 power notches & 4 brake notches.
• Intermittent, slow and fast setting added to windscreen wiper.
• Separate engine start & stop buttons now operational. Engine stop button illuminates when engine is stopped.
• Master key & 4-step reverser (Off/Reverse/Neutral/Forward).
• Cab light.
• ‘Hill start’ button which applies step 1 brake pressure below 3mph.
• Functioning ‘Train Fault’ & ‘No Train Fault’ indicator lights when changing reverser position.
• ‘Door power’ indicator light which illuminates when speed falls below 3mph and extinguishes when speed rises above 10mph.
• Digital clock below speedometer.
• Individually controlled headlights & tail lights with proving lights in the cab.
• Detailed headlight, marker light & tail light textures for both new and old styles.
• Improved appearance of Driver Reminder Appliance (DRA).
• Cab camera angle amended so more of the desk is visible.
• ‘Max Speed 100mph’ label added to driver’s side of cab.
• Higher resolution cab visuals
