Thank you to Clowes for pretty much everything!
Thank you to James Ivell for allowing the use of his array of child objects for the Mk3 coaches! (Detailed info on these is in the Credits section of the manual)
Unfortunately whenever I try installing this, I’m left with an error message around halfway through. I have all the requirements.
Superb pack – thanks.
However, I think AP updates have broken it for the mark 2 pack, at least – I’m getting tail lights at both ends of every coach and a weird shimmering on the bogies. Reinstalling the pack puts everything right – except the branding, obviously.
Can anyone verify that it’s not just me?!
Got my answer and a solution – all good
Hiya Barry. Could you tell me what the solution is as am facing the same issue? thanks
My solution was to use the Mk2 branding pack for 2D-2F coaches on Vulcan Productions site

Hi, any chance of updating the pack to include the Class 86 and Mark 2’s with last Julys update, and also to include the new tread brake feature.thanks Fred
