Introduction

North East Scotland is an amalgamation of 25 signalboxes in North East Scotland, and includes a mixture of semaphore and colour light signalling. The simulation covers the line from Dunblane to Aberdeen, as well as the lines from Ladybank to Perth and Dundee, and the southern end of the Highland line. There is a variety of passenger traffic, from local stopping trains to medium and long distance services, and a fair amount of freight traffic.

North East Scotland is a Payware simulation- to play beyond a short demo period requires the purchase of a license from the Products area .
