Boxes were added in quickly before the meet, to indicate their positioning for clearing points. At the time, I couldn't, in my head see how to shrink them down size wise. (Thanks Ben....) The *1 was to indicate where Heaton Norris is located between the running lines for the up and down fast. For anyone interest, I have updated the Stockport preview image, link in the initial post on this thread, to the current state. As for an older era, if someone has the data and is willing to share that with me, I will happily add in an older era. For example, in addition to that mentioned up the thread, I know there was more sidings around Edgeley Junction No.2. James Log in to reply The following user said thank you: Steamer |

Will there be a multiplayer/masochist option to run the simulation with Hunts Cross style lever frames?

I will be looking forward to the Port Talbot sim. Do not know the area, but looks very interesting. I had a little trouble following the lines. Took me quite a while to find where Bridgend line to Maesteg married up on the diagram, realising the confusing was because the Tondu diagram does not follow the same direction of flow as that from Bridgend. So as a bit of fun I did a version I would have preferred.  Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Professionalism mean nothing around a bunch of Amateur wannabees! Log in to reply |

So as a bit of fun I did a version I would have preferred.It certainly looks like it will be a highly enjoyable sim - will be able to appreciate it more after yesterday's railtour! Tondu is an interesting area....the signalling has been retained as semaphore PURELY for TATA Steel....2 ways in & (effectively) 1 way out - Bridgend & Margam Moors Jn (freight diversionary line which is used maybe once a year....) Tondu-Maesteg for passenger, Tondu - Garw Loop for freight turn-around...that line used to continue up to Pontycymmer.

As the diagram shows - the Garw loop is on the same end as the Maesteg line, with the Margam/Bridgend lines going off on a Y!

Well folks with the release of the 2015 timetable for LTS, and the release of Manchester East yesterday that draws the planned Q1 releases for 2018 to a close. Here's to Q2!

Purely for general information and to avoid any conflicts with other timetable devleopers, I am working on additional timetables as follows: Manchester East 1985 (pre Hazel Grove chord; long distance passenger workings via Philips Park - Ashburys) Manchester East 1987 (chord open: many cross-Manchester workings via Ashton Moss) Manchester East 1991 (after shift of North Trans-Pennine to Piccadilly) Manchester Piccadilly 1996 (both airport chords open; 2 platforms) also possibly Manchester Piccadilly 1993 (early days of airport; only north chord open) These are all subject to the moderators' OK, as with all user-contributed timetables, so no guarantees on availability or timescales. That said, the Manchester East trio should be complete within a month. The Piccadilly ones are a massive undertaking and testing takes ages, so they will be end-May at the earliest. 1993 will only be produced if there is enough differentiation to 1996 to get me interested!

West Wales. It is Llanboidy, not Llanboldy, between Whitland and Clunderwen

just to say we Rotherwood & Wath men worked the 1970s MGR trains bound for Fiddlers Ferry with pairs of Cl.76s to Mottram Yard or Godley Jc but never to Guide Bridge.
