Nederlandse Spoorwegen liveries in various stages of completion

long time no update, so here's the news:

i'm currently adding different versions of DD-IRM/VIRM and of Plan V. especially the latter is a longer-term activity as there are several different construction series, and these were each extensively modified during their lifespan. i really want them all to accurately reflect every period, so just the research alone has taken entire days....there are different variants almost for every decade so for Plan V this will mean implementing at least 8 or 9 variants. some have modernised interiors and some will have entirely different doors and windows - the newest one is a 2000s variant with increased traction and altered seating nicknamed "Turbo-V".

adding all these variants has to be done sequentially, so i'm finishing the DD-IRM first before moving to VIRM and VIRMm, and with Plan V i'm working backwards from the Turbo-V.

ICR-B stock has been added in all original variants, and the SNCB/NMBS HLE11 locomotive has been adjusted to match. for historical accuracy, there is a baggage-kitchen coach and 1st class passengers have the option of sitting in six-seat compartments. ICRm-B stock and ICR+ will follow in due time. there is also a fleet of ICR apparently going to MÁV-START in 2025....i will be adding this livery as soon as we know more.

for the 1970-1990 period, i'm detailing the Plan E carriages with various advertising options and adding detail to the locomotives of the series 1100-1200-1300. a new Plan K coach has been added which can be used in InterCity trains for the period 1968-1984. also planned for a future version is a fully realised 1400 series locomotive. this class was designed by NS in 1965-66, and then cancelled during pre-production.

taking a small step away from actual reality, the lore requires a later production variant of the SM'90 unit. this type will have been built in large numbers between ca. 1997 and 2002, it's more modern and carries a minimalist livery matching with the DM'90.

Thanks for the updates, liking them!

Which train is the NS Stadler-Werkspoor ICNG? I know its not in the pack, but just out of curiosity

the Stadler ICNG is a strongly modified version of Seamon's SBB Giruno model. it has a different interior and changed scripts and i'd have to ask permission to release it. there are a few issues it has that i would like to fix first however.

Can you add the Plan D Benelux stuurstandrijtuig. I am searching for them al long time on Transport Fever. but never could find one.

i'm probably not the best person to ask for this - the creator in THIS THREAD has recently made a new model for the Plan D and could choose to add a stuurstand variant model. i've only been doing basic modelling so far. it's a very cool coach but it would be quite messy if i tried to build this entire head shape out of an existing Plan D by Oppie.

EDIT: i don't remember making this but i do have a mockup of an ICM-based Benelux stuurstand in my design folder from a year ago. i could have a go at putting this one in the game for funsies.

also, i don't think i've shown the FLIRT yet - it hasn't been touched in a while. but this too will be receiving further detailing before being added. there will be the NS version included in the modpack, and a plain liveried Stadler unit released separately for those interested in repaints.
