The turntable is in RE2R and so is the turntable shaft...implication is the TOP of it indeed still is the Factory/Marshalling Yard area. Also evidenced by the lab floors. If comparing RE2R with RE2 OG THE renake is mistly set on higher floors which is why you see the roof of the Main Shaft with it's 3 branching bridge-arms abd also why you see the actual Greenhouse plant top. OG showed the plant 43 but only the trunk descending downwards never the top so it seems 'in reality' most if not all these cut areas technically exist just the gane took you through alternate routes. Same can be said fir the cable car. Seems to me there's in fact 3 lab/nest enterances or 2. Factory cable car in OG from Sewers. Alternate Factory cable car in Outbreak from Training Facility and RE2R's beefier cable car from Sewers. What we really need is a hybrid map of RE2R and RE2 OG layering the floors etc. The Main Shaft in OG RE2 has a power fuse thing in the center. In RE2R it has an elevator. So to hybradise could just move the elevator to the side of the shaft or whatever, slight tweaks to iron out the contradictions that never were asked for in the first place causing unwelcome cognative dissonance. Bit of a bug bearer of mine.

@FMxcah @tomsmodelcorner Yeah it's bad. They literally force you to throw stuff at a distance into other bags which I think is disgusting. Bottom line as usual, no actual care of people's goods, just gimmi money.

@wotmasterblast @GbHtrain No worries : ) Send us an email and I'll send a set of construction photographs of my original pre 3D printed version that was essentially a prototype for the 3D printed ones...even though I didn't know at the time it would essentially become that!

@wotmasterblast @GbHtrain Low variant will need some modification at the top most parts but can still use A1/3 cylinders and it look relatively normal.

Practicality also comes into play: If using the High plate the Brittania cylinders fit better with the top lumps filed off, black 5 valve gear can fit. If using the Mid height plate the black 5 cylinders fit better, the cylinders of the last 20 or so years though, not the older tooling ones that are overscale, if using them then the High plate will serve you better. When designing the A0 range a Hornby Railroad chassis, a tender drive type with no motor in the loco and the super detail type with motor in the loco were all used; three types so the bodies had best chance of fitting them all. You may have to do a bit of filing here n there but they can be made to fit.

@BlueGoofball Many thanks : ) Still more updating to do as and when time permits. Lots to do actually.

@JonSLatona @domenicexp111 @realTTTEWikia Ok, question is who wrote that though, does it carry any official weight or truth other than subjective illustration interpretation.

Ok. Wilbert's model I partially ignore in a lore sense because Triang and Hornby had bigger wheels on their E2's for whatever reason so he used what was available. Also the splasher is needed if the running plate is dropped anyway even with original sized wheels. I thought there was some official textual lore I missed.

@JonSLatona @domenicexp111 What info is there on him officially having bigger wheels? Must have missed that.
