Hello.
I think the Kawasaki M8 will be released tomorrow Thursday (April 24).

Seems like Thursday is a popular release date

Yes it makes sense as most people get paid friday and have the product fresh in their mind, so the next day they pay for it and they have their new toy to play with going into the weekend.

What? No speculator wants to put his money where his mouth is?

No, there is only an eight hour difference between Great Britain and the West coast of the U.S. I'm not sure where Steam is located but I think it's somewhere within that range of time zones.

I once heard that Steam was run by Canadians, I'm not 100% sure, though.

I'm excited for this train. However, I have a bit of an issue with the lack of tinted windows, and the black paint finish that reaches the coupling ends of the cars. I've already stated this on RSC FB page, twitter, and even sent them a couple of emails with photos, showing comparisons between the real life model and the Virtual rendition of it, which I actually did get a response for. They actually stated that they forwarded it to the person in charge of the M8 loco content. So hopefully they will have addressed it.

It won't necessarily be a game breaker if for whatever reason, they choose not to fix it. But it's a noticeable difference, that I feel, personally takes away the attraction a bit from the TS 2014 rendition. Still looks far better than any other M8 models made for other trains sims.

link below will show exactly what I mean, just look at the windows and then check the point where coupling ends are. They sort of give the illusion that the window panels are somewhat seamless from one car to another with the black paint finish.

A bit disappointed that they used default sounds from the Javelin EMU. Guess a sound pack is in order here.
