The UK Railway Set (UKRS 2) is the updated version of the UK Renewal Set. It is currently in development.

GRF History

Scale comparison of various steam locomotives
Development began in mid-2009, with the intention of making a NARS-compatible version of the UKRS. This version would have NARS-style variable running costs, a 19th-century start date, and slightly rescaled vehicles to represent the difference in loading gauge between the UK and the rest of the world.

The first vehicle I drew for the updated version was the 4-4-0 Edwardian, based on the Midland Railway 1000 Class. As I wanted a new name for the set (to get away from that horrible "renewal" word), it became "Project 1000", after this locomotive. Later, I decided the UKRS acronym was too well known to give up. :)

Changes from UKRS

  • All vehicles have been redrawn to a slightly smaller scale, reflecting the smaller loading gauge found in the UK and moving away from the modified TTD graphics found in UKRS. Vehicle lengths are also more representative.
  • Variable running costs. Locomotives have higher running costs while moving than while stationary, and also become more expensive to run as they age.
  • Takes advantage of new OpenTTD features such as wagon running costs and auto-refitting.
  • More variety in rolling stock and special train layouts (driving cabs, etc). More livery pattern variations over time, and a real-world-like colours feature.
  • Earlier start date. PJ1K is fully playable from 1830.
  • NARS compatibility. NARS 2.1 and PJ1K will have comparable running and purchase costs, the same variable cost routines, and recognise each others cabooses and other special vehicles.
