First of all Euston has landed onto the loader format, Watford Junction, Wembley Mainline, and Wembley Suburban have all been updated to include all the various chain options. [Due to the nature of changes user contributed timetables for Euston may require work to function fully in the loader version] There are also some minor updates to the Wales & Borders area, and Leamington Spa covering off recent issues raised on the forum. Simulations Euston Watford Junction Wembley Mainline Wembley Suburban Cardiff Chester Hereford Leamington Spa & Fenny Compton Wigan Timetables Wembley Mainline 2009/10/15 SX Wembley Suburban 2009/10/15 SX As always detailed version change information is available on the wiki.

When trying to start a Euston game on the loader, the "Choose scenario" list contains a bunch of options prefixed [Debug] - seemingly the specific variations of the general closure/blockage scenario.

Just tried it out, but after I'd say not even 5 minutes I'd get a message saying the simulation has expired. Any idea what could be causing this? Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

I'm glad Euston is back :D. Had a few couple of hours on it and it's brilliant. It's also nice to how Euston was before modernisation etc.

Now the only question remains - Who made that incredible Euston 1980s timetable, and how can we help bring it up to standard? Genuinely, one of my favourite SimSig experiences of all time. Log in to reply |

headshot119 in post 146939 said:flabberdacks in post 146938 said:The 1984 from Chris has imported quite cleanly. Just two fixes, and neither would affect train operation. As Euston is non-ARS the 'old way' of dealing with multiple TD is probably safe, it would be a big job converting to UID and making sure nothing had broken while doing it.Now the only question remains -It was written I believe by Derbybest who sadly is no longer with us. The few bug fixes in the related forum thread would need to be applied if expecting to run it cleanly. https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/ThreadView/29587 His 1990 though looks like it may have still been a work in progress ?

For those of us who are "old and slow"! Get the original files (zip of wtt+wtr) from https://www.SimSig.co.uk/File/Details/390 Save to desktop (or somewhere sensible) Unzip to folder Start SimSig Euston paused and without a timetable Timetable 'merge with current' choosing the folder on the desktop (or wherever). SimSig will default to the home timetable directory of the sim, so will need redirecting. Run 'analyse now'. Change timetable title to 'Euston 1984 Derbybest' and put in a description like 'My edit of Euston 1984 by Derbybest' Fix the two bugs Fix the bugs from the forum thread Save timetable as.. Unpause and run Just thinking, is it worth doing a collective update for those bugs ? Would be a shame for the work to be lost. Or maybe the the 1980 by jc92 be the main one folks want to run ?
