    BVE: Start your turn of the tram.....

    The conductor climbed onto the top deck.

    "We're heading towards City Interchange via Town Hall Road. Any more fares please? Ok, hold tight please!" he said, pushing the bell cord twice. The tram rolled off on it's 2 mile journey on route 89A.

    OK, the game's up. NETram is now released! It's me again, Tom Beevers of Picc Line / NETram fame, formerly Cockfosters on this forum. My account was deleted, I noticed a post on the general forum that offensive usernames would be removed : possibly as this is an american forum they didn't know that Cockfosters / Thingyfosters/ Lulfosters is a tube station, nothing offensive!

    Anyway, link in the sig, ding ding!

    I'm downloading Picadilly now and as soon as that's done I'm
    going to try the Netram. Be careful not to tease the forum
    censor, he used to be the Iraqi Minister of Information!

    3 hours, huh?

      Just finished the run now, and must say you have done a good job with the city.
      Love the High St road works, traffic being guided bye the cones.
      I used the bell once to, people standing in my way(near West St), but they moved when they saw the tram coming their way, NICE WORK!

        Uh oh! Picadilly was too big for my wee little hard drive. I'm
        trying the Netram as soon as it downloads. Too bad, I liked was
        seeing.

            Tom,

            This is so cool! I like it when those kids jump out of the way too

            The route also works nicely with Martin's TR1 tram.. one niggle - after the road works there are cat. poles in the middle of the road, but a small adjustment will take care of that :P

            All in all your best work to date, IMHO.

            Ciao

              Hi,

              Thanks for those comments . Being shorter it means more detail as well as more time for each bit.

              If it's my best work to date, you've not seen 60's Branchline yet :9.

                Hi!

                Was not going to post anymore on any of the forums. (After what happen to the last one.) But it only fair to thank someone for a route well done and this is one of them. Thanks again for all your routes. PS Here in the US, Cock is slang term, Why not use your old Crotrainz (Dare I say that here?) Handle. And Thanks again for your e-mail reply.

                  Nice route Tom.
                  Always good to have something a little bit different.
                  Especially like the Kingsway Tunnel throwback at Town Hall Square! :-)

                    Jason, you go right ahead and post! Tom, I did try the Netram
                    last night and it was excellent. I too liked the way the crowd
                    got out of the tram's way. The details were excellent. Like
                    Wulf, I did notice the caternary poles in the track, but I figured
                    that's what the crew was there to fix!

                      Jason, I did use TomBeevers2000 but forgot the password for it and had an old email address for it.

                      Now there's an idea Chris, engineers predicted the OHLE would not stand up to the stresses whilst the work was going on and an extra pole was inserted...

                        Now this one is my style, what can I say but Fantastic, deserves to be part of a bigger project, Even some good objects that could be used in a project like tramlink Croydon.

                        If you have not downloaded it yet, put this one on your must dowload list, you won't be sorry.

                          I think it was TomBeevers2004.
