Looks like we will finally get a pro update, the only proper engine for the HST for me. They recorded the prototype today The only power car that still has a Valenta engine.

That´s just consequencial. On which HST pack will it be based of?

Habe schon darauf gewartet.
Selbst mit dem MTU macht der HST Spaß, aber mit dem Valenta...............Klingt schonmal gut soweit.
-
The Valenta will apply to BR Blue/Grey, Executive, and Inter-city liveries for sure, but also could be many post privatisation liveries as most power cars were only re-engined after privatisation, although a few got VP185's in BR days as a trial. The last PC's to have Valenta's were Network Rail, which are now MTU. All of the midland mainline PC's have VP185's and a few western mainline under a BR trial, they moved to the midlands. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_43_(HST)

Here is an article about the creation of that livery:

Deutschland hat seinen TB11 und die Briten ihren Valenta. Ich liebe beide......

If you missed it live, you can still see it here https://www.twitch.tv/videos/119993400

I didn´t plan on getting it because it means buying the rather old Exeter - Paignton (as JT is just making a new one to be tied in with Western Mainlines), but these sound have changed it all! That thrash upon accelerating is worth it!
-
-
It will come with scenarios for other routes, but no details yet. It will also apply to existing class 43's as far as I am aware so it should work in many of the scenarios you already have.
From FB;
Another livery for you on this Monday afternoon!
Midland Mainline revised blue with old logo, new logo and debranded variants. On top of that, the 'R' can be applied/removed via the number of the power car.
From our forthcoming Class 43 (Valenta)/Mk3 Enhancement Pack. -
From FB;
Possibly one of the best liveries to be carried by the HST?
The large front numbers can be turned on/off via the number. Also, a separate variant is available with small numbers towards the rear of the power car, as carried in the early days of this livery.
From our forthcoming Class 43 (Valenta)/Mk3 Enhancement Pack.

Whats the difference between the MTU and Valenta? Is it just the different motors? Or is there a visual difference aswell?
-
@linusf
Der einzige weitere Unterschied sind die Lampen. Die klassischen HST´s haben diese hinter einem großen Glas und die modernen HST´s haben getrennte Leuchten.
Ansonsten dürfte sich nur der Motor unterscheiden.
Vlt. noch andere Details, die mir bisher nie aufgefallen sind..............Gruß

Bin gespannt was an Szenarien mitkommt. Bei AP wird da leider oft sehr viel Drittmaterial verbaut, dass diese dann recht teuer werden. Ansonsten reicht mir eigentlich der -wirklich gut gelungene- normale HST, den fahre ich gerne und es gibt eine Menge Sachen u.a. auch im Workshop.
