Just playing this sim and having referanced wiki I am confused, in wiki it says that 91+mk4 trains will use P3X at Shipley, but it is not in the availible platform options in the sim. All I can say is one is wrong, but which one I daren't ask. Log in to reply |

But an "X" on the end of a platform usually means the train needs the full length, or needs the signal at the end off in order to be fully platformed. I'm fairly sure the later is the case at Shipley in real life.

Likewise at Skipton platform 2X is used so that the route from L4033 to LOS can be set, as the HST/Mk4 stopping point is passed the signal (but not the block jojnt), these trains always call in to confirm they are at a stand and that L4033 can be replaced to dangermark265 in post 85525 said:According to wiki it says it uses the platform code 3X at ShipleyJust playing this sim and having referanced wiki I am confused, in wiki it says that 91+mk4 trains will use P3X at Shipley, but it is not in the availible platform options in the sim.I'm not sure whether it should be included in the simulation, only the developer can answer that.
