    Just to let everyone know, I'm currently taking a small break from working on certain parts of the project. Will be looking at some modelling while I wait till my google static maps api allowance resets.

    Timetable has a few more layers to go which usually causes more services to tweeked.

    Big update: Decided to connect the church fenton branch of line to Gascoigne Yards.
    Which means the timetable needs fixing once I've set up signals and junctions and portals, which means a lot more freight services can be drivable.

    The reasoning was as they are quite close to existing portals it would be more feasible to connect those up to allow cleaner and less messing around in the timetable.

    And the northern area of the map is more a future thing, the main focus is south yorkshire section which will get most of the buildings/stations/scenery stuff done first.

    When I release the alpha which will be for timetable testing and feedback not much in terms of scenery or visual stuff, I won't restrict anyone from accessing the northern section as one that's not really fair and two making a copy of the timetable just to restrict that would be a pain.

    Image of Gasocigne Wood Yard and Milford Yards.

    Just finished up placing signals and routing some of them, Selby, Milford Yards and Church Fenton are all connected and most the gradient and super elevations are sorted for those areas.

    Just need to fix up some markings and work on fixing some services of the timetable to work with the new portals and track.

    So recent update.

    Had a issue that took less than a week to fix, was trying to origanise a few things and broke some plugin names but everything is back to normal now.

    Timetable layer LNER and Class 150/158 are complete servicewise and operate very well. Will just need to apply descriptions to each service.

    Class 170, 195, 222, 323, GrandCentral, EMR, Transpennine Express, Lumo and Hull Trains are progressing slowly.
    And freight 66 and 66 AI services are coming along nicely.

    Plugin structure for Class 801 for Lumo, Hull Trains, GrandCentral and TPE are setup and ready to be textured.
    Same with 150, 158, 170, Class 43 and Class 66 trains.

    Only recently noticed the tracks missing from York Yards and it wasn't a major issue to remove them as they were not apart of the main signal pathing =)

    I've placed down temp station platforms for export later and currently going through signals and timetable simulations to check before adding more to the timetable =)

    A good saying comes to mind: "slow and steady wins the race".

    Update: Slow progress, working on signal pathing and junction setup, timetable on hold while these get worked on.

    Update 2: Working on track weld joints, slow progress on this one as it needs manually doing.

    Big update on the Class 170: No longer using the FifeCircle 170 and swapping over to the recently released XC 170 will be working on livery at some point.

    Cleaning up a section of tracks that have jolting issues mainly around hexthorpe area and masborough disused station.

    So we don't hijack the other thread.

    What file is that you posted. I have never seen that one. For my TTs I have updated existing Station Directories but never created one from scratch. So I can't comment on if there is a problem with the editor.

    Works with everything else, so I assume it is related to that but I need to test more.
    So I think something is not working correctly in the editor as previous trains that showed the destination are now showing not in service.

    Big Update: The route is now playable in the main game, still working on this process and not everything is working right yet.
    Fixed my stationdirectory and everything is functioning correctly again.

    So regarding the cooking and paking, right now it doesn't work quite right, timetable and formations have to be inside the main mod plugin folder which isn't great for organisation and updateability.

    Worked on Mexborough Station a bit more, ramp is modelled just not in editor yet, mostly blocking out and cleanup of platform geometry.
    Passengers are fully working on the station.
