I know that this is of very little importance but I have just started to read the Marylebone manual and noticed what I'm sure is a spelling mistake in the 2016 Era of the Start-up Options:

"The station area was extensively remodelled, with a new light maintenance depot built at the sound end of the station" Shouldn't the word "sound" be South?

Looks like an interesting layout and I'm going to put this sim very near the top of my "must purchase" list. I shall give the Demo a try this evening

It was indeed, I've corrected it.

Marylebone is a good one to run single player with ARS, although you have to watch it around Ruislip as it doesn't like looping trains giving way to fast ones sometimes. Otherwise its one of those where a lot of services are captive so you have to make decisions that affect you for the rest of the day.

Mmmm...... Just run a Demo Mode but virtually nothing happened. Quite a number of trains divided and a Class 66 travelled at 60 mph. That was it! Did I run the wrong Demo or are the others the same or similar? Difficult to make an assessment in these circumstances

Starting at 4.00 is a bit to early for this sim in my opinion (I know you can't help that). The full service towards Aylesbury only really starts running between 6 and 7. And believe me, it is very intense then. You really have to keep en eye out for small delay's, because they can quickly cascade into big problems. The layout at Marylebone is not your only problem by then. I've got a save from 6:43 and I've got 57 trains in the area at that time. That is on the Marylebone Oct 15 SX (with other ops freight and LUL) WTT.

Yeah, there’s not much happening at 04:00. Try the 0:00 start, there is still quite a bit of activity at that time that the 10 minute demo will allow you to experience some.

Yeah, I did wonder whether a midnight start might have been a better option. Will give one a try later.

Thanks
