Hi, how are you all today? I just joined but have been playing the easy simulations on and off. I want to play some of the harder ones now. Any suggestions?

Hi,

What have you been playing that's been easy for you? Everyone's a bit different.

A couple of suggestions from me intially (all freeware):

Carlisle using the 2009 timetable (or other modern timetable)

Aston using the 2009 timetable.

Add some delays and failures to get a feel for dealing with them too.

Well I started with Royston and the North London line. My work colleague suggested Stafford but I can't find it on here. Thank you jc92, i'll give your suggestions a try.

If you download the latest system files from here

once installed run the SimSig loader and on the screen that pops up select check for updates that will allow you to install all loader sims including Stafford and will give you an updated Royston aswell.

This gives you a guide to using the updater https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Wiki/Show?page=usertrack:install:upgrade

And this guide is for using the loader to start a sim https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Wiki/Show?page=usertrack:ssrun:simrun0

That's odd.

The bottom 2 line of the text above didn't appear on my computer in this answer that MarkC gave.

Edit: And now it has. Maybe I just didn't see it
