More of a Question than a review...
(July 25, 2008) |
|
I was wondering whether it is just Windows XP that this product works on or does it work on Vista too? Amazon says XP on the main screen for the game but i don't know if this has been updated.
Also, do you have to have East Coast Parts 1 & 2 before getting this, Part 3,
Thanks |

A very good add-on

Well, I think this is another great addition to the East Coast Express series, it would have been fantastic if there was a through run all the way from Leeds to King's Cross or King's Cross to Leeds in a Class 43 or 91, instead of quite a few small commuter runs and broken down trains. Apart from that the add-on is great with high quality rolling stock, scenery and stations. The Class 158 is excellent and the 321 is all right. The passenger views are not that bad. Well, this is a great add-on for fans of the East Coast Express series, and of course fans of Microsoft Train Sim, and also a good add-on to buy if you live in the area too.
Trains:
Class 158 in Regional Railways livery
Class 321/9 in Yorkshire Metro trains livery
Class 43 Light Engine
And full use of rolling stock from East Coast Express Part 2.
Also, the following stations are included:
Doncaster, Bentley, Adwick, South Elmsall, Fitzwilliam, Sandal & Agbrigg, Wakefield Westgate, Outwood, Leeds, Cross Gates, Garforth, East Garforth, Micklefield, Church Fenton, Ulleskelf, York, Sherburn-in-Elmet, South Milford, Moorthorpe. |

mainline activity

I agree with one of the reviewers the only thing laccking is a through run mainline from Kings cross to Leeds and visa versa. If your going to add simulations together you should be able to operate throughout the whole route it would be great to sit down and operate a srvice from Leeds all the way down to Kings Cross and back again.
apart from that the add ons O/K. |

Few problems

Wanted this add on because I know the area well and have travelled the routes. While Doncaster-York is ok there have been a few instances of getting an error message saying unable to open certain texture files and whilst you can usually Alt Y through these (not ideal) it then sometimes just freezes, although PC meets the spec. Have emailed First Class Sims to see if there is a patch or other solution.
Hope this can be fixed because otherwise pretty good.

East Coast part 3
(December 27, 2007) |

This is another great addition to the East Coast series, I just found that it lacks varied and enough activities, for example a run from Leeds to Kings Cross, or Kings Cross to Leeds in a 91 or HST would have been nice, as opposed to plenty of small commuter runs from Doncaster and broken down trains. |
