Screenshots of the simulations can be found in this thread https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/ThreadView/49264 Unfortunately at this point in time we can't give a time frame on the release of any of these simulation. Please bear in mind that Sandhills has only been in development for 2 and a bit weeks at the time of preview so is a long way off at this point.

Staffordshire & Sandhills both looks amazing. Stafford new layout along with Stoke and Derby lines is lovely welcome addition and possibilities with chaining is big!! I don't know much about Sandhills network but the sim looks very detailed. Staffordshire is on my list.. I presume this will end the current Stafford Sim in progress for Staffordshire, Would this be still freeware or moved to Payware? I don't mind either way.

Stafford and Staffordshire represent two separate eras, and two fairly different areas, Stafford will remain available through the website.

HST125Scorton in post 113389 said:I don't know much about Sandhills network but the sim looks very detailed.For the benefit of anyone not familiar with the area... Sandhills IECC controls the majority of the Merseyrail Network (click here for map), an almost entirely self-contained network of lines radiating from Liverpool. The network is also an island of 3rd rail electrification, and the only such network away from the main 3rd rail area in the south east. The only parts of the Mersyrail network not controlled by Sandhills are the souther section of the Northern line (controlled by Hunts Cross, as already simulated), and the lines south Spital, which are controlled variously by Chester PSB, Hooton (which was absorbed into Chester a few years ago), and Ellesmere Port boxes (it's likely that all of these would be simulated in a single Chester simulation, were it ever produced). The only non-Merseyrail lines controlled by Sandhills are the lines from Wigan and Wrexham that run to Southport and Bidston respectively; the rest of the latter line is simulated in North East Wales. Sandhills also controls a very short section of the line from Wavertree (see Edge Hill simulation) to Liverpool Docks.

Matching names to faces is ongoing on the wiki, there are only 3 people which we can't identify from memory.

Sounds like a good time and it's certainly great news that a Sandhills IECC sim is in production :) Now this was probably asked at the meet but I'm going to ask as I wasn't there but what eras/years are going to be represented in the sims on display at the meet? Log in to reply |

It was great to play Staffordshire, Manchester South and Sandhills IECC at the meet (although with Manchester South and Sandhills I would have found it easier if I had been using my regular 2-screen setup. I look forward to the release of those three sims along with Stockport. Dave Log in to reply |
