    It seems that when you create a service, stopping at stations along the way, it displays the maximum consist length as the the length of the shortest platform the train stops at. But you can actually use any length of train as long as it fits in the origin platform, it can be longer than the platforms along the way.
    An example of this is that you can create an all stops service from Brighton to Eastbourne using the 1972 stock which is 113 metres long. It says the maximum consist length is 101 metres (the length of the platform at Moulsecoomb) when it should be 263 metres (the length of the origin platform at Brighton).

    Also, the platforms numbers and lengths at Newhaven Harbour are the the wrong way round in the Scenario Designer. If you select platform one as your origin it gives you options towards Brighton when it should be towards Seaford and vice versa.
