1. Include 6E82, 0Z87 & 1R86(?) in a 1400 seed?

2. 3J41, 3J42 & 2x 3J44 regulation stops at GRA?

3. Should 2S02 enter from Allington as a 1/153?

4. 1B21 must not enter before 5E21 has passed Boultham Jn?

5. 5E24 is unable to keep up with it's timings - realise that it was probably brake force restricted?

TIA.

In Zone 6, no one can hear you scream...

Train type "Class 90 & 9 Mk4 & DVT" apparently has a Max Speed of "125mph" but being a Class 90 this should only be 110mph. At 125mph it tends to run early, and in any case is obviously not realistic for a simulation...

Changing top speed to 110mph and Accel/Brake Rate to "Very high" and maybe also Weight to "Light" allows the train to keep to booked times under normal running, even if technically speaking this may not be totally accurate in itself.

This inaccuracy also applies to the same timetable for the Doncaster North simulation, and therefore I assume also the as yet unreleased Doncaster Station simulation.

Any views and / or opinions expressed by myself are from me personally and do not represent those of any company I either work for or am a consultant for.
