SimSig Lancing

Southern Region

Introduction

The Lancing simulation covers panel 1 of the real Lancing signalbox, and controls the 6 miles of Coastway West line from Worthing to Hove. Unlike other simulations, your job is simply to control the 4 level crossings on the line. If this sounds easy, bear in mind that in a typical hour there are 12 trains passing through the control area. Shoreham ground frame is also included.

Lancing is currently free to download and play, although Donations are gratefully received.
