We're pleased to say that it is finally released! Thanks for your patience everyone, it really has been a mammoth task to get it all tested and released.
"If you really needed a diesel locomotive right away, then go ahead and order a ALCO. But if you could wait for real quality, then go for an EMD or a GE".
I have run into a couple minor issue though, with the American versions of the engine, full release of the train air only goes up to 72.5 PSI instead of the 90 it should go to, this makes it difficult to handle rolling stock other than what it came with as the brakes don't fully release on the cars.
Also, in Quick Drive the whistle is always set to the Original 5-chime regardless of what loco you;re running, but in free roam scenarios the whistles seem to be correct.
Thanks for the feedback I'll investigate those issues this morning along with some other things that have come up.
On the 90 psi, it that normal across all US stock? I'm a bit surprised that it wasn't picked up in DTG QA but also that the ARR Rail Tour scenario seemed to work ok using the passenger coaches that came with HSC? Can you shed any light?
Edit: Ok, I've confirmed this with DTG so we're going to change the US locos to 90psi.. apologies for this, bit embarrassed this wasn't picked up sooner.
