    Yes, there's plenty of 5 car services, which are labelled in the service name

    I love how the route looks at night too. It has actually just occurred to me though that functionally it is like an OpenBVE route in that it only works correctly in one direction: Leaving Waverley and heading for Leven we are riddled with signalling problems, but depart from Leven, Markinch or the platform at Glenrothes it all seems to work correctly.

    I'm from Edinburgh and agree that Dunfermline isn't that convincing; especially the deserted dual carriageway.

    I was a little disappointed by the lack of off map destinations for AI. I thought they would’ve been included because the 158 timetable for Edinburgh-Glasgow handled that really well (apart from a few missing destinations that I noticed, like trains to Inverness from Glasgow Queens Street). I believe that originally though, the 158 timetable for Edinburgh-Glasgow came without the extra off map destinations for AI, and they were added in an update along with more services. So I hope that it’s something that can be added in an update. It just kind of kills the immersion for me to see trains with a final destination of Haymarket from Edinburgh Waverley, and to see trains with no destinations at all.

    Quite disappointed that there is still no update to the Fife Circle route yet, it’s been out a very long time. The signalling on the route for me is the biggest issue, I really hope rivet can fix that. It’s a basic feature of a train simulation game.

    And the 170 still has no running sounds despite the release notes for this week's update saying they'd been fixed.

    Just had a run from Leven in the Leven livery and it was a pretty good run overall. I implore DTG/Skyhook & Rivet to please finish this route off. Genuinely believe by doing the bits listed below this would be the best route in the game. Ok I’m probably biased as South Gyle is my local station.

    Most of the things required are functionality already in the game and with the I7C coming gives that opportunity to not only polish this route but maximise sales of that too!!

    General/Route -
    • Full timetable as at current day
    • Include Voyager services to Dundee & Aberdeen
    • Include Glasgow QS/Central services(Waverley/Haymarket way to quiet)
    • Approach control to Leven branch
    • Platform PIS to show Edinburgh Gateway
    • Platform announcements
    • Stopping location at Leven
    • Ai station & train destinations
    • Populate or remove the blank journey in journey mode, preventing completion of chapter
    158 -
    • Fix/implement Announcements
    • PIS should be Edinburgh Waverley
    • Door beep sounds for opening
    • Implement Suspension
    170 -
    • New sounds applied as per BCC
    • Implement suspension
    • Headlights for AI only show on one side

    Did a spawn in on TT from Edinburgh to Inverkeithing. Spad at signal before Inverkeithing with no prior yellow.
    Looks like this bug is back with this TT.

    Why didn't XC, Avanti and LNER also layer onto this timetable?

    It looks like the original timetable works except announcements at Kinghorn as before. But the Sprinter timetable announcemenys are a mess. Something went wrong with the update. You can drive the trains, but it's weird when you know what could have been and probably is worked on.

    Avanti and LNER do (Sprinter timetable at least).

    CrossCountry, simply because the Voyager came out long after the new timetable was ready (it's been ready since March this year).
