Crovan's Gate New-Build

I've recently been in talks with Sir Topham Hatt himself on Twitter, asking what engine he would like to see new-built at Crovan's Gate, and he said he would like to see an Gresley/Raven A8 4-6-2 Pacific Class Tank Engine, which he said would be most helpful on mainline and utility services, and after has recently done one in Trainz, I thought I could do an image of it in Trainz to see what it would look like.

Now I know one of you may comment on how the Sodor Porter's hair is white, and I'll tell you why that is. After my computer went in for maintenance and upgrade to Windows 10 about a month ago, it messed up a lot of my programs, deleting .exe files and other important information, most notably corrupting or erasing textures in Trainz assets, rendering them useless. So instead of going in to reinstall all of them, I've decided to go ahead and buy up the newest edition of Trainz and start all over again.

So this photo will be the last one I will ever take in 2012, and once I have installed all the assets back onto T:ANE, I will get to seeing how I can be able to take a photograph or a video in it again, although the frame rate is a lot more bogged down than in 2012, but I'm sure I could get it all up and running soon enough.

(BTW, the A8 hasn't been reskinned, only photoshopped. )
