    Trent valley updates??

    Correction: Should read: ...due to conflicts of interest I canNOT invent "Chinese walls" and do a SimSig version.

    Trent valley updates??

    I pop in from time to time - but yes, the best place to ask is on the SimSig forum. Questions have to come to me, not me going looking over the 'net for them :) Stafford won't be updated, at least in the near future, because of my work commitments - I have all the data because our company...

    Speed Limits (50 over 75)

    Apologies, after checking with a driver on the LTS, you appear to be right. My assumption was that the scheme plan would show this correctly but does not. But then it's also the same scheme plan that is missing a major scale change plus one or two other less important bits of information. ...

    Speed Limits (50 over 75)

    Agreed. The LT&S, for example, has differential speeds where the greater mph figure applies to EMUs and the lesser mph figure applies to loco-hauled trains of any description. So Jordy's charter, had it been on the LT&S, would have had to adhere to the lesser mph value - even if it was a class...

    Lea Valley Line (Tottenham Branch)

    I had some diagrams which were "pre-release" so the signal numbers or placement I refer to may not be exactly what is in place right now. Coming from London, 4-aspect signal L1009 protects the junction towards South Totty. Then the next signal is L1011, with its overlap across the facing...

    Lea Valley Line (Tottenham Branch)

    What do you mean by "talk through"? I might be able to help, just depends on what you want, or what you want it for! Geoff M.

    Warning

    Indeed, but these are the only two to stick their heads above the parapet, and those that appear get shot at. It's not fair, it's not right, but they're our unofficial voice and we're just hoping that they notice us outside. In fact, to be fair to Adam - I'm assuming this is the same KujuAdam...

    Warning

    Well... we did. And we weren't listened to, even those of us "official" subject matter experts. In the SME forums we repeatedly asked, on our own time and money, to see the betas - even at your offices so there'd be no leak - so we could check that the basics were covered. Whilst there are...

    KRS release dates

    Kuju had a number of subject matter experts - me on UK signalling (plus one or two others; more on German signalling, which they've also ballsed), plus other subjects. We spent a day or more at Kuju HQ where we explained the subject and had a Q&A session. We had a forum that only Kuju and...

    KRS release dates

    Oh great. My name is in the credits and they ignore my advice. I spent a whole day explaining approach control to them, and splitting distants. Even gave them some links to signalling websites. I repeatedly offered to beta test the signalling to ensure that they've got it right *before* they...

    Liverpool street and stratford

    Ah, now I understand! Liverpool Street has a Westcad controlling a small part of the NLL, from North Woolwich to Stratford Low Level (the former now closed), Stratford LL via Channelsea Jns to Homerton, and Channelsea to Temple Mills. The signals controlled by this workstation are plated "S"...

    Liverpool street and stratford

    Nowhere does it state that this is a simulation of the entire IECC. In fact far from it: "This simulation is a replica of the screens in use by the signallers at Liverpool Street IECC, covering the same area as the signaller controlling Liverpool Street"...

    Liverpool street and stratford

    In what way? SimSig Liverpool Street controls exactly the same area as Liverpool Street IECC, Liverpool St workstation - which itself is duplicated and controlled by two signallers mostly. One does the top half of the station, the suburban lines, and the Hackney Downs lines; the other does the...

    Rail Simulator World Editor

    Blimey - that looks good and easy to use. A few captions explaining what is going on would have been useful though. It's worth watching. Geoff M.
