It it were a simple matter of adding the wires then that could probably be done in an evening or two but I also need to remodel Newton Jn (again) which will take a bit of time. What someone can do, if they were so minded, is write the timetable with the EMU classes temporarily coded as electro-diesel which can be reverted when the thing's updated. I've worked out how to get the raw timetable data from NR's CIF open-data feed but it'd need to then be knocked into shape which is a bit of a fiddle I think but easier than starting from scratch.

Motherwell takes ages to edit out from a CIF file - no trains have entry points and each has to be edited to enter the sim as well as have the corresponding line deleted from its individual timetable to prevent errors When you run CIF data into Motherwell there are a few TIPLOC issues 2Rxx/2Sxx trains between Motherwell via Wishaw have a missing location between Whifflet Sth Jcn & Mossend Nth Jcn The XML file for these services have the following TIPLOCS in the service path Up Direction <scheduleLocation> <locationID>WHIFLTS</locationID> <departureTime>20:58:00</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENXT</locationID> <departureTime>20:59:00</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENDN</locationID> <departureTime>21:00:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> Down Direction <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENDN</locationID> <departureTime>15:25:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> <pathingAllowance>01:00</pathingAllowance> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENXT</locationID> <departureTime>15:27:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>WHIFLTS</locationID> <departureTime>15:28:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> Up Direction Freight path <scheduleLocation> <locationID>WHIFLTS</locationID> <departureTime>19:33:00</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENXT</locationID> <departureTime>19:36:00</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSEUPY</locationID> <arrivalTime>19:38:00</arrivalTime> <departureTime>19:40:00</departureTime> <activity> <crewChange>true</crewChange> </activity> </scheduleLocation> Down Direction Freight Path <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENDN</locationID> <departureTime>01:02:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> <scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSEDGL</locationID> <arrivalTime>01:05:30</arrivalTime> <departureTime>01:07:30</departureTime> <activity> <crewChange>true</crewChange> </activity> </scheduleLocation> [color=#0000bb]<scheduleLocation> <locationID>MOSENXT</locationID> <departureTime>01:10:30</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation>[/color] <scheduleLocation> <locationID>WHIFLTS</locationID> <departureTime>01:15:00</departureTime> <passingTime>true</passingTime> </scheduleLocation> In the case of the down freight path both MOSEDGL & MOSENXT are missing the service ends at Mossend Nth Jcn and restarts at Whifflet Sth Jcn - I would assume that MOSENXT should be the next location to Whifflet Sth Jcn Hope this helps a little Passed the age to be doing 'Spoon Feeding' !!!

Provided they don't have to be "Key locations" then adding them should be simplicity itself, provided I know where they should be. Key locations and ARS is more problematic, particularly in the Mossend area. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply The following user said thank you: Meld |

Peter thanks for the reply, I've attached a copy of an imported timetable created from xml for yesterday, as soon as you open a service entering at Gretna for example - you see that you get a headcode followed by a blank entry point with no time, then in the service list you see the Gretna Jcn entry time. While on the subject of Gretna is there a way of regulating the trains that use Quintinshill down loop ? as they all enter at Gretna and run straight through without calling there - often to the detriment of a faster service behind. I know technically Quintinshill is within Carlisle but does cause a nightmare for regulating [attachment=3077]Motherwell10032015.wtt[/attachment] PM also sent Post has attachments.

Can we not have an historic timetable for Motherwell and Carstairs. Plenty of scope for loco-hauled trains from the south splitting at Carstairs. I know the signalling would have been mechanical in years gone by but such a timetable would be much more interesting and challenging.

It was posted as an example for Peter to illustrate problems when importing from current CIF files - never really intended it to be playable - however if someone wants to make it playable, then thats fine by me. Time constraints and other projects prevent me from taking this any further in the forseeable future However heres a little something I've been working on over the last year if you fancy a change [attachment=3169]Motherwell25thMarch2014v2.4.8.wtt[/attachment] Supplied as is, I am unable to offer any support on this timetable as it is not an 'official' release Post has attachments.

Ray, I am fairly well on with such a timetable (c.1984), but it needs a lot of work on the freight side due to sim changes around Motherwell. As such I decided to park it for a few months. I'd also expect to do a 1993 matching the COW/CSCOT that I have further north. At present I'm doing a Kings Cross 1964 (but using current operations due to lack of track!)

Meld's TT is quite playable. On your own you HAVE to have ARS on. One or two little problems, (Mainly with trains booked to stop at loops arbitrarily deciding to go on strike on the main line at the loop entrance......) but not insurmountable! You have to keep your wits about you otherwise cheeky little 6 headcodes sneak in front of the expresses if you aren't careful............ A most enjoyable TT - 9/10!! Log in to reply |

Unfortunately we have as yet not been able to get hold of the diagrams, I think Paisley 2015 has stalled for that reason (I must check). Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

" said:Meld's TT is quite playable.Thanks NNR - as you can see by the version number there have been lots of niggles along the way, looked in my old ttdev folder and theres 65 copies of this TT during its development :doh I would say the TT is about 85% polished off - there may be one or two little niggles towards the end. Peter - I know Barry has the EMU diagrams for Paisley 2015 its the DMU's I cant get hold of (if anyone could supply a set before the upcoming timetable change it would be appreciated) and maybe one day I'll produce a Scotland 2015 set of timetables.

Timetable is the easy bit, it's the unit diagrams that are more tricky. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |
