    Failed to load shapes

    Morning all! Just a quick question - whenever i load the Dorset Coast route I get probably up to 100 different error messages about shapes not loading. If I keep my finger on enter then they go away. This also happens whilst i'm driving. The game will suddenly stop and give me these damn...

    A little help

    Passing Poole station today i saw a 442 in a non-electrified siding. Anyone have any ideas why it was there? I've ever seen the siding used before. The tracks are old and rusty and it is right next to the road behind a wire fence. (Next to those bus stops and the road which gets you out behind...

    Fotopic problems

    Does anyone find when they go on fotopic the idex with the thumbnails has no thumbnail? Just picture size and the buy option? When you happen you can't see any photo's. Any ideas how to cure it?

    Paying for BVE

    One of the many joys of BVE is that fact it's free. But people ask for release dates, (which are often delayed) and sometimes the routes are a real disappointment. We can't blame the authors (because after all train spotters do have social lives too, believe it or not)! But if an author could...

    MAJOR Powercuts in Poole and Bournemouth

    I can't see a thread anywhere else, but if one has been started i apologise. Well, it's chaos down here at the moment. A fire broke out at about 9 this morning and flames began to reach 100 feet. A power cable came down and electricity has been on the blink. On the blink is a bit of an...

    [Europe] - Thaly's/TGV's in England?

    Do you reckon we'll ever see one day a Thaly's or TGV pull into London Waterloo just like the Eurostars? With the CTRL they should be able to run at a decent speed and since the French get to see our trains, why can't we see theirs?!
