Another sim which I hope will be done sometime.

I know that there was interest in a Preston PSB sim - don't recall where I heard about it: may have been a SimSig meet - and I hope that will be done and released sooner or later.

For a side thought, however, what about Preston to Blackpool? Could incorporate the lines to both Blackpool North and Blackpool South, which diverge at the now closed Kirkham North Junction, along perhaps with the line from Poulton to Fleetwood Docks. Would also chain to Preston. Options to be TCB or AB working and also, perhaps, new or old layouts for the Blackpool stations.

There is a Preston Sim in development but I'm not going to say anything more about it as I'm not allowed!!.. I agree a Blackpool Sim would be ideal for single person or in a chain with Preston into Manchester and Carlisle depending on eras set. A Mechanical approach would be good along with Post May 2018 era after the upgrade.

Another thread where someone has heard about a sim at a meet (1), but can't recall any further details (2), and where someone else can't say anything as they aren't allowed (3).

Drinking rules
(1) Everyone take a shot
(2) Two fingers of a pint
(3) Down your drink.

So in that case with TTs in development for what I know and can't say anything about (drinking rule 3), without using exact numbers - the answer is - Everyones well and truly drunk

I don't want this person who told me to get into any sort of bother about this while its in development, then why I said 'I'm not going to say anything more about it as I'm not allowed'.. Just clearing that little bit up as I work below Preston PSB in the Croft St/Pitt St Sidings and know the staff in the PSB which I visit most evenings before work...

Come on, We cant drink every time these drinking rules are met. Some of us are on our backs already after the last few months of these drinking rules.

I've no doubt it'll be done after the developer gets home from work - although he may have to have his dinner first.

A good reflection on me and joining sims for the most part I guess. :)

TBH I can think of a few sims I would work on if I had the time, know-how and means to develop them but I won't post that unless anyone asks.
