I'm creating a TT with trains entering at Longsight Up Sidings 2-5.

The layout has actually changed a bit over the years; in reality 2-5 are now roads 2 and 3 with road 4 now entering at MP66 (sidings removed and realigned to insert CET and servicing facilities). This isn't particularly relevant as I don't know the exact dates of the changes; and it doesn't affect the sim in any way.

What does is that the sidings are currently coded as unelectrified, which isn't correct - all the roads (1-13) are showing as electrified in a map I have from 2006 though 8-13 only partially; and although I'm not sure of the present electrification situation with regards 8-13 (which are presently out of use but being upgraded for use for TPE) roads 2, 3 and 4 definitely are so for a current simulation electric trains should be able to enter at both MP66 and MP67.

There's the right way, the wrong way and the railway.
