The Electrostars are here to light up your day! As the most numerous EMU in post-privatisation Britian, they can be found across the country South of England. Including every single British variant, in every single conceivable formation, you’ll have no trouble finding the Electrostar of your dreams.
Don’t worry Northerners, you havn’t been left out. Here’s your dinosaur blood DMUs.
If I’ve missed any liveries / variant, or just made a mistake please let me know – i’ll add it in!
Yes the 357 does have the wrong cab – the cab is now correct!
**This pack is INCOMPATIBLE with my previous Class 376 mod. Please unsubscribe from that here before subscribing to this.**
