" said:" said:From another sim yes. I have not tried this on Waterloo yet, hence the question.Thanks again Peter for refreshing this. If I can ask one question I asked earlier again, do the Buffer Stops at Waterloo have a location identifier I can use for Seeding Trains? As I understand it if I seed the train at the Platform Starter, it will want to depart immediately irrespective of the booked Platform Stop at Waterloo?Is that understanding from experience as it works OK for me. Sorry guys, I am in the business of making people wait! Log in to reply |

Peter, In the Wiki, the length of platform 05 is defined as 217m. However a train 197m long will not fit in this current layout. Any idea? Barry Barry, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Log in to reply |

Platform 5 will only fit a max of 8/455 8/450 5/444 or 8 158/159.

I've checked the simulation TC lengths, platform 5 is actually 195m. Also, Platform 17 was given as 268m, TCs are 255m. Wiki updated accordingly. The rest of the lengths are slightly pessimistic compared to the TC lengths. This is only by a few meters, probably because not all of the TC covers usable platform, so I've left it as-is. I don't know how close this is to reality, however. "Don't stress/ relax/ let life roll off your backs./ Except for death and paying taxes/ everything in life.../ is only for now."
