Hello, Just another possible error, either that or it's me again, I managed to accidentally route 2P33, a Dunblane train (booked to go through Lithlingow from Haymarket) towards South Gyle. I didn't notice it was off path till it was at Inverkeithing, so I've decided to route it round the whole fife circuit back to Inverkeithing and send it to Lithlingow that way, might be a few hours late but hey! The question is, would the driver call up and query this, or is it one of those routes that could be used as a Diversion (though I wouldn't know what possible diversion it is) Sorry if its a false alarm again, just like to point these out in case. Cheers, James. Log in to reply |

Wrong route coding is used vary sparingly in my Sims- so it's not a bug as such. Generally if you find a wrong-route call it's because you have no get out of jail free card- that's not to say you will always get one in those circumstances.

Diversion as far as Dalmeny loops is not unreasonable, and some ECS do go that way in any case (see one of the splash screens). We had this at the meet, a Bathgate sent Fife lines, we caught it at Dalmeny but didn't stop it at Winchburgh and the CSCOT folks had to send it back for us. Came back almost right time at Newbridge for the return working though ! Bill Log in to reply |
