    Version 1.1 is out. Swanley to Sevenoaks has been completed with 4 new stations: Eynsford, Shoreham, Otford and Bat & Ball. Enjoy! #14.jpg 20230219111318_1.jpg 20230219111235_1.jpg 20230219111205_1.jpg #15.jpg

    It's great to see that section complete! Hopefully there will be some scenarios between London Blackfriars and Sevenoaks

    Where do you publish your scenarios? I can't find any for your route on the steam workshop. Only one I've found so far is on OTS.

    I don't think we can publish scenarios for workshop route on the workshop until it's marked as "final".
    You can find plenty of scenarios for the route on ATS and the trainsimcommunity site. ATS has the most.

    Lovely extension via Bat & Ball/Swanley. Couple of things for the mainline

    Just a few other things to note, All of the platforms between Grove Park & Sevenoks are 12 car length now. Unfortunately a lot of them are about half a coach length short.

    Also at the London End of Chislehurst on the slows there is a crossover which allows you to reverse on Platform 4 at Chislehurst and head back to London. AD14 is the starting signal.

    Seems we had the same idea for the scenario but nonetheless it was a great run :)

    Have scenarios been created for it yet? Where would these be found, on the workshop?

    This depends on which units you're using. Some models are too long compared to their IRL counterparts.
    See this post.
    When it comes to Chislehurst, I haven't focused on changing default DTG parts. I Have tried to add the cross-overs there previously, but the track in that area isn't cooperative. Adding the cross-overs would probably require the re-laying of quite a lot of track.

    I suppose that was bound to happen considering that most services on that section are quite similar! Glad it was a great run though!
    Personally I'm hoping that the Canal-Tunnels get added to TSC one day so that 2 part scenarios from Welwyn Garden City to Sevenoaks will be possible!
    Here's one I made. https://alanthomsonsim.com/downloads/n-9y33-1316-london-blackfriars-to-sevenoaks/

    Thanks, look forward to trying that.

    I ran a quick drive, London Blackfriars to Lewisham Mid-Kent (the 170 left over from another run, in case someone picks up on that):

    20230220135844_1.jpg

    And a couple things that came up I just wanted to mention.

    First, just noticed there is no AWS ramp before signal VS 403 (and also the adjacent VS 401), which should have sounded as it was at yellow:

    20230220134427_1.jpg

    But the main issue was that the route didn't take me to Lewisham:

    20230220133759_1.jpg

    After Nunhead, for some reason the route diverted me to the south, and not straight on towards Lewisham:

    20230220135028_1.jpg

    I would have presumed if a destination couldn't be reached from the starting point, it wouldn't appear in the menu, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Is it a glitch from merging different sections?

    I have no idea of how those AWS ramps disappeared during the merge, since I never touched that part of the route. I can easily add them in again though.

    For the quick drive I have most likely made an error while making the quick drive scenarios.

    i think the ramp for Beckenham Junction Platform 2 (I think, the up line) was missing as well. unless that was already fixed

    The crossover at Chislehurst is separate to the rest of them. Would be a lovely bonus considering the weekend just gone had engineering work south of chislehurst.

    Only you could call your kitbashing a mess, to the rest of us it's an "in absolute awe" masterpiece of making a silk purse out of many sows ears.

    I'm a bit late to this as only just picked up the required DLC to make this route accessible for me but I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the creator. This is a truly stunning route!

    There hasn't been much progress this month due to more important things taking priority.
    Progress will probably ramp up in May.

    Not necessarily. But there are more important things than route building. Always knew I would have little free time until May ;)

    How about the lines towards Maidstone and Ashford International? And the Dartford/Gravesend/Cannon Street circulars for quick drive via, Woolwich, Bexleyheath and Sidcup?

    I've just come across this route and played it with the Hayes - Charing Cross scenario from On Track Simulation. Absolutely fantastic, the variety of stock brought my PC to its knees but it was worth it!
