Whilst I look forward to Bristol being re-released as a Loader sim (no pressure on this: I know it will be ready when it is ready) I guess it will probably be re-released under the old layout. It is interesting to note, however, that those responsible for the stellwerksim.de simulator seem to have got their hands on the Bristol TM layout as it currently is: I wonder how they got the data?

Not as good as Simsig and rather a congested layout though: I will try and test it as I see the potential for one or two flaws in the SWS format.

define what "the data" is here. general signalling layout and speed limits are easily obtainable but is the interlocking and timetabling all accurate?

Ay up. Stellwerksim's main focus seems to be a large coverage area and the multiplayer system, but even German signalling is only depicted in a simplified fashion, e.g. no overlaps, and never mind any British signalling particularities.

Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.
