Hi, Ik this is going to be a no-no sim request but I'll ask anyways. Could there be any future chance that Ashford (either the HS1 panels or the BR lines panels or both) could be produced as I think that its stupid (excuse the word input) how such sims cant be made just because of it been made by Geoff. However, Liverpool Street IECC (the station area and the West Anglia panels) was produced without any problems?!?!?!?! I in all personal honestly cant see the difference between the Liverpool Street and Ashford IECC's. There both IECCs and they use near enough the same equipment and ARS system, so if there is any differences, please do point them out because I'm curious to see why Liverpool Street (the mentioned panels) was produced and Ashford cant be.

Someone may, or may not, cover Ashford IECC in the future. In order to do this they would need vast amounts of data: * Lengths of every track circuit * distance between signsls * gradients * Line speeds * details of the interlockings (control tables) And probably vast quantities of other stuff. It's not easy to get some of the information, and development can (and does) take years. Kev Log in to reply The following user said thank you: ajax103 |

It's very hard work to do end of. Log in to reply |

My point is not that directly, it is that Ashford is not allowed to be produced (as mentioned on Conflicts of Interests page) however Liverpool Street was. That't the point I am trying to get to and I am already fully aware of the time it takes to make new sims.

If you read the conflict of interest page somewhat better you will see why Geoff said 'never say never' (and why Liverpool Street was possible in first place).
