Other Options
Bad Weather: Affects train acceleration/deceleration and signal sighting distance. Turn on to add more difficulty.
Difficulty Setting: Select 'Easy' to add some additional help, such as train descriptions being interposed for you when trains enter at some sidings. 'Standard' does not add these features.
Scale of Problems: Select the probability of late running, train delays at stations and equipment failures.
Random TSRs: Select the prevalence of Temporary Speed Restrictions .
TORR: Select to turn on Train Operated Route Release , which releases routes set from signals as a train passes without intervention from the signaller. The real Saltley panel did not have TORR, however it is highly recommended that solo players enable it.
