HST: ScotRail 7 Cities
24th December 2018Updated 19th August 2018
This reskin depicts the Ex-FGW/Ex-GWR HST sets in their current guise with ScotRail under the “7 Cities” branding. The sets are in use as ScotRail have committed to £475mil fleet upgrades as part of their current franchise. These have a larger capacity than the 170s and 158s they cascade, and have an overall InterCity feel in comparison.
Due to the reduced number of coaches, they are permitted 100mph max speed. The HSTs will easily accelerate beyond this so watch your speed!
A scenario for DPS’ ECML North East is included. At Low Fell, it is not uncommon for the scenario to dump, so it is suggested to save 3 miles from Newcastle, and look to the right of the cab between 2.15 and 1.3 miles from Newcastle. Apologies.

where do i copy the geo files from .thx
The Quick Drive consists are incorrect. They are labelled 2+4 and 2+5, but are in fact 2+5 and 2+6 respectively.
When I try and run the .bat file to install the reskin, it deletes the file from the railworks folder. Any idea on how to fix?
I have had difficulty getting this to work since may….
Good Afternoon..
I have downloaded the Alan Thomson Sim Installer – after purchasing a years subscription – and tried downloading this through that… Yet, it is still only showing the couplings when it has been downloaded. Any ideas as to why this is?
Usually, it’s because the GeoPcDx weren’t copied over. You’ll probably need to transfer them manually.
I know you have the installer but sometimes it just doesn’t work.
Hey There!
From video’s I have seen online this reskin is superb BUT it fails to be seen on my Simulator… It has downloaded but when uploaded onto a Quick Drive it is not visble.. Any theories as to why this is?
Does the Quick Drive fail to load, or does the train just appear invisible with couplings visible?
Hey There!
Thank you for your quick reply. The train appears invisible with couplings visible. How can I fix this? Thank you.
make VP185 version please, i’d like it.
Due to that being fictional, I have no intention of doing so. Feel free to work out how to do it yourself, it isn’t difficult!
i know, but i have the MTU enhancement pack now, so i can download this without the need to make one with a VP185 engine or a valenta engine.
