Well that took 2 mins to find using the site search function:

I searched for "Waverley" in Resources & got this:

JX_SHB_LNER_Paddle-Steamer_WAVERLEY_(Clyde)

This is the conversion from FS9 of the Paddlesteamer of the LNER company, which was steaming up and down the river Clyde in Scotland. There is a set of tweaked effect files for a nice coalburner smokestack and some additional effects I made for...
sim-outhouse.org
 
Thanks UT, BUT I did the search function and got nothing shown. I then did a page by page search of civil ships then RN ships and I didn't see it there either. I then did a common Google search as well. Yes, I might have spaced right by it in my haste. And I realize now that I did not use the prefix JX or the Clyde in parentheses, that might have confused the search function. So as a last resort I posted a question here in our forum.
 
Stoney,
I just put waverley (doesn't matter capital W or not) in the search bar, at the top of the page, which is the search engine for the whole site, 8 results came up, and the 4th down is the one....what could be simpler than that?!

Always start with a simple basic search in the site search function, if nothing comes up, and you think/know it should do, firstly make sure you are spelling it correctly...AND yes, as you can see you spelt it incorrectly not waverly BUT waverley....;)

I don't mean to insult you intelligence, but just a reminder for others, and maybe for the non-native english speakers.

Beautiful ship and a very nice model, thanks for reminding me....I'm off to have a 'paddle' myself.

Cheers

Great stuff C, what a nice trip out. Looking at your pic you went from Southend Pier.

Brings back some good memories of the area and the Forts.

This may be a silly question but didn't this ship participate in the Dunkirk evacuation or I am confusing it with another.
 
Wolfi; Thanks for the clarification. When I asked that question, I didn't look anything up but rather was keying on the name as I recalled it from reading about the evacuation.
 
Stoney, don't feel so bad. We may speak the same language on both side of the pond but spell the same words differently . As has been said before in history "...... it is hard to believe that we speak a common language!" :LOL:
 
I was really surprised that the ā€œnewā€ paddle steamer was build in 1946, I never thought that paddle steamer where build after WW2, but then I read about the old one, that was bombed in Dunkirk -and the new one was a proper replacement after the war, -maybe for a nostalgic reason. Both ships look very similar, the only real difference is the two funnels on a new ship instead of one on an old ship.
