I was trying to post a copy of an occurring bug I get that cascades down the screen but the copy I took has disappeared.

So instead it is interesting to see the work in this sim area progress now. Stirling has lost a lot of its semaphore signals.The North box still has them. Bridges are being raised in preparation for electrification. The Queen St Cumbernauld line the work is all but done.

The big areas are the Winchburgh tunnel and Queen St itself. Platforms are to be extended but the whole area is very tight.

We have just two new trains running, 385003 and 385104.

Stirling North is about to lose the remaining 2 semaphores that it has and it's dummies for Dorman LEDs.

Cumbernauld to Grahamston is fully electrified and energised, as is the line up to Polmont and a good section of the grangemouth branch to all reversing. (and the full E&G line)

Line speed increased to 90 from 80 through Winchburgh Tunnel now, and further platform extensions to be completed at QST HL station.

Only normally available if you have a tester license for the sim - although I confess being an exe sim it may be slightly different

CScot is on the Loader; there is no ability to highlight electrification on .exe simulations either (Tester licenses notwithstanding).

In the EGIP era, electrification is as follows:

ALL running lines (including loops) are electrified, with the exception of:
*Cowlairs East/West Jn to Westerton/Anniesland
*The line to Greenloaning beyond Signal DB44
*Alloa Town (exclusive)- Longannet
*The line to Fouldubs Jn/Grangemouth beyond signals GH9 and GH11

The only yard that is electrified is Eastfield.

As far as I know, CScot in the EGIP era is up to date as regards layout changes?

There's a few layout changes in the EGIP era. Greenhill Upper for example.

UGL is gone, as is the Exit for the UP E&G from the UGL. Where entry into the old UGL is now a 70mph verge and joins up to the Up Branch.

Larbert DGL is now a single track layout with 3 aspect LED colour lights at each end of the loop and recently also on the Down Perth for turning movements on the mainline.

UGL is now an engineers siding (granted this part was done only within the last few months) Entry to the CE is where it still is at the North end of Larbert station. *Recent*

The dummys at the West end of Camelon Down platform is a 3 aspect Dorman LED with theatre box ECL271. ECL supersedes CE.

Stirling SM12 doesnt exist at the south end of P2.
There is a banner repeater on P3 for signal SM13.
There is a banner repeater for signals for SM14 and SM16

Dunblane DB54 is a 3 aspect LED with p1 route indicator and GPS w/ mini T.box. DB53 isnt there any more. DB14 is a 2 aspect LED.

There's also a new 3 aspect LED after Grangemouth jn, for East movements between GH52 and P492R.

Polmont P153 is a 4 aspect LED with theatre box (EPJ513). That one is probably one of the first changes out off all of the above.

as well as a good number of signal plate IDs changing prefixes... but again, this has been a staggered change over the last few years. Edinburgh Signal centre is in control of the full length of the E&G regardless of the Signal suffixes. The first significant ID plate changes are at Polmont, Now EPJ and CE is ECL.

I can supply the information in regards to all signal IDs as they are now, if required.

Excluding the ones that I have stated as 'recent', everything else has been in place over a couple of years now, some longer.

https://traksy.uk/live/M+1+DRMGLCH+14 - greenhill upper layout.
https://traksy.uk/live/M+1+FALKRKG+5/M+58+LARBERT - Larbert

Hope this helps
Craig

None of that makes the sim incompatible with later timetables, except perhaps the UGL and DGL changes but if I remember correctly those aren't that heavily used anyway. Next year though, we'll see the opening of Robroyston station.
