An Unconsidered Comeback | Gatwick Express Class 460

Recently, I did a small test stream just to make sure everything was set up correctly. It was, for the most part, so I decided to show off my skills in Train Simulator once again, and I just had to drive on the Brighton Main Line, in the 460, and HUDless too!

Best rolling stock in my opinion

[@CoastwayWill]

Great to have you back and I enjoyed chatting on the stream

[@erikpiussi2960]

Did catch you already on twitch but welcome back. Great to see new vids from you on youtube :-)

[@immal2868]

Moleman I just like you a lot. Glad your back

[@KPTHR3]

Nice to see your back.

[@andrewmontgomery5621]

"Luke,I am your father!"

[@Nikkilovesgils]

The "powercars" are currently at Wabtec awaiting disposal the rest of the units were converted into the 458/5's

[@ninosjourneymate]

Great video pal, welcome back

[@Moleman978]

Thanks! :D

[@samanthaoshea1880]

New intro is amazing

[@Moleman978]

Thought I'd get a bit of classic Moleman in there!

[@cmaviation525]

Besides the class 460 do you have to buy any other locos to use the London to Brighton route?

[@JFinney]

If you really hate your passengers you can open the non-platform side doors and just let them walk straight out and onto the tracks on this set lol

[@HayleyKiyokoLineBMT]

When I get the Class 319, 377, 442 & 460, I'll play four six 0 train.

[@KPTHR3]

I think there’s still a 460 at Doncaster. I see it in a lot of photos

[@lewispridden6421]

KayPeaThree 3 nope they’ve all been scrapped

[@bggls2443]

Finally !!!!!!

[@morgandobson8383]

You have done to many you can only do three!!!

[@DuanLeadingham]

Does this route have a third rail or is it a smaller guage line aswell

[@Moleman978]

It is a standard gauge, third rail route - much like most of southern England

[@robfcgaming1947]

Are the door opening sounds the same as the 387

[@andypardy3212]

Link to Scenario?

[@TrainNutter]

DTG should do a remake/update to this. That being Gatwick Platform 6, new East Croydon, new Class 377 (Maybe), Class 387 and other things.

[@Moleman978]

It would never be an update, changing the original route would break every single scenario created; official, workshop etc. I am hoping for a TSW version one day.

[@TrainNutter]

I like TSW but it lacks on scenarios which for me, makes it a little dull. Still great though. But yeah, Class 387s, Class 442s, Class 73, Class 700/0, Class 700/1, Class 377s & AI Class 313s (For Brighton). BTW, Nice to see you've returned from a well-deserved break!

[@alfiehnotts]

@@TrainNutter it’s a good thing it’s been confirmed for TSW2 then

[@Alfie-cu4np]

Transpennine's Class 350/4 are being cascaded to London Midland, Did you know so?

[@andypardy3212]

Did u get this free?

[@BritishAgriPhotography]

Will have to get twitch to watch your streams?

[@Moleman978]

You don't *have* to have a twitch account, but if you want to join in the chat etc, then yes you will.

[@BritishAgriPhotography]

Moleman978 thanks will certainly get an account then

[@mtar5473]

Hello again

[@morgandobson8383]

Which van was it.

[@yukisuter]

They used to update the L-B route every train simulator upgrade until the 2017 one. Who actually knows if they are doing something on it? (i.e the East Croydon Footbridge is still in a grey cuboid.Rn. Its open with yellow and it sorta makes east croydon look dark)

[@Moleman978]

Ummm, no they didn't, a route has never been upgraded on a yearly basis, that would consistently break scenarios made by the community.

[@yukisuter]

Explain east croydon and the shard....

[@Moleman978]

The shard is easy, it was completed about a month after the route came out, and so the route was probably built one month in the future. Same as how the Chatham Main Line featured new Rochester station before it was completed in real life.

[@yukisuter]

ok

[@levichalcraft8702]

I have seen a 450 on plat 11

[@beachhouse13]

OK, this is clearly Iron Man not Darth Vader!

[@yungmouse3850]

The 460 does exist in real life, its just not in service anymore

[@trainspottersutton4003]

class 458 they got converted into them

[@lewispridden6421]

All scrapped

[@fastsong5499]

hi Moleman

[@Moleman978]

Hey there!

[@ey7290]

Where did all the express 442s go

[@Moleman978]

The 24 Class 442 units replaced the Class 460s, and were then themselves replaced with Class 387s. Now, South Western Railway hare having 18 Class 442s refurbished for their use.

[@ey7290]

Moleman978 pointless to replace the 442s. They were still relatively new and also could've done more than just London-Brighton like Eastbourne, Portsmouth, Littlehampton, to victoria/bridge

[@Moleman978]

The Class 442s entered service in 1988, 29 years old is not young/new for a train.

[@ey7290]

Moleman978 Southern should start thinking about a fast GE service on the south coast from places like Portsmouth. Much faster than going to Brighton or waiting for a train that may never come

[@Jackmc2007]

@@Moleman978 not anymore!

[@AtlasBaudelaire]

glad ur back lad, still angry u blocked my old twitter cus i called u dad tho >:-(

[@frasercollins4076]

Pixelated

[@morgandobson8383]

Worst case of the scenario .

[@ax2bxc]

The 460 looks hideous,slow,just a DVT and MK3's just not interchangable

[@montanaro11]

Let’s restart because you failed

[@conno4tnnbbgbb344]

Hi

[@alfies.trains]

Conno4 Bbgbb hi

[@bananaman432]

Wow. Chanel change much

[@Moleman978]

How so? The new logo was debuted in my trailer, and halloween special, before this video, and uploading livestreams has been how I have done things for months. There's nothing 'new' in this video per say.

[@alfies.trains]

Can you stream on youtube

[@Moleman978]

Nope, I love twitch's platform and will be streaming there

[@alfies.trains]

Moleman978 ok fair pont

[@Clowch99]

I've done the TPE Class 68, head over to Lewlad Reskin Co. on Facebook. (Website is still in the works)

[@robofifa9582]

Can i be back in that plz

[@Clowch99]

ROBOFIFA, I gave you several chances (around 4 or 5 I recall). You blew all of them, so no.

[@davidstrains4910]

Looks really ugly at the front to me

[@Moleman978]

To each their own, I love the 460s, so much more character than other modern units

[@pzm9459]

Yeah. The 460s isn't for me. But then again, people have different opinions.
