APT Class 666 5-Car

Auto Credit Based on Feanor's C-666 ADV

Enjoy British Highspeed!

This train is designed to be used on the Railway Map from destroyerP. It can also be used on the Simple Planes Railway from TrainDude, but that has very sharp and bumpy curves, limiting you to 25-40 MPH. It only uses parts which are also available when not using the latest Beta and no mods. When first spawning into the map, chances are high the spawn is somehow screwed up. I recommend respawning atleast once.

The design is fictional and based on Feanor's C-666 Advanced Passenger Train, which is a mix of different older British Intercity trains like the APT, Class 43 (Intercity 125) and Class 91 (Intercity 225).
The coaches are a mix between the British MK3 coaches and the French TGV coaches, featuring jacobs bogies to reduce the amount of wheels, reduce weight and make riding through corners smoother.

Trains in SP are very problematic performance-wise, as they combine a high amount of parts with a high amount of wheels and seperated physics bodies.
This is why I have made a lot of versions with different amounts of coaches and also with and without interior. I have tested the trains to work at the lowest physics and graphics settings, so even lower end devices should be able to run atleast the version with just the two engines and no coaches.

If you still have performance issues, I advise you to not drive faster than 40 MPH, as the wheel physics somehow cause a massive performance impact when going faster (my framerate is beeing cut in half).
Here is a list with links to the different versions (versions without interior are called "Mobile"):

APT Class 666 2-Car

APT Class 666 3-Car

APT Class 666 4-Car

APT Class 666 5-Car <<< You are here

APT Class 666 3-Car Mobile

APT Class 666 4-Car Mobile

APT Class 666 5-Car Mobile

Technically the engines/locomotives don't count as cars, however I think the way I named them is easier to understand for most people.

    @Stormfur Have you also tried this one? It is below 1000 parts and has a low amount of wheels. According to some other mobile users that should be running fine.

    @GritAerospaceSolutionsLTD It's more a fictional livery, but I chose the Virgin Trains and British Rail liveries as reference.
