Hello!
Having asked previously on the forums about the XC Route for Train Simulator and the Cotswold Line which is being developed for the route, and hearing that the route is taking a back seat as the "Missing Link" WCML route is being developed by the same team (and rightly so that it should happen in that way - the team have been working on the WCML route for a long time and it has more priority at the moment), I decided to have a go at making the Cotswold Line for Train Sim 2020.
Before I get a load of people asking random questions about the route, I'd like to set out a few things (these are just to save you asking questions )
I'm starting this sort-of "Route Developer Diary" with Kingham station, which is where I am starting the creation of the route. Stay tuned for more posts!
Thanks,
-Peter

- This route is not a 100% accurate recreation of the Cotswold Line. It is a good representation of the route using assets which I have available to me.
- This route is not being developed with the intention of being released as a mainstream product for everyone to use. This route is being developed primarily for those who want the Cotswold Line in TS to have it in a somewhat recognisable form.
- This route does not use the Google Maps API to make route building easier. This tool is not working for me in TS at the moment and therefore I can't use it. I am using images from Google Maps and atlases of the UK rail network to help me produce the route.
- I am not willing to share this route with anyone before I feel it is finished to a suitable standard. Please don't ask for the route.
- If you wish to contribute to this route, please let me know through commenting on this thread or messaging me on the forums.
