There's the right way, the wrong way and the railway.

Clearly it's the Fernlee reservoir and not the Pacific Ocean (cough)

923 posts 		It looks like the ground frame diagram somehow got missed with the sim earlier. This should now be available

The railways around this part of the country have an interesting history.

Also interesting to see a new type of signal

I don't think I've played Crewe - interesting though.

On that note, in Hope Valley, are HG30 and NS143 missing their auto markings?

I suspect they aren't auto plated as they protect a tunnel? 143 is plated controlled. I've just checked on a cabride video - although it is in advance of Newtown Viaduct not in rear as shown on the sim. not sure what the box diagram shows.

The box diagram is the opposite of how they're plated on the ground. Both Hazel Grove and New Mills South have the auto plate on their diagram, but I believe that the auto plate was removed from the signal at some point

333 posts 		Automatic signals are no longer plated for new installations, since the rule allowing drivers to pass them under their own authority if unable to contact the signaller was withdrawn. NR are slowly removing them from the network when renewals occur, and they're now often not shown on new panel/control system screens, even if they're still plated as such on the signal.
