Indeed Ken! The King has Returned! It's great to hear from you here Frank. I got your message and I'm tinkering with Chasewater now! I really appreciate you going out of your way for me and helping with another of our projects! I Speaking of our other endeavor, I'm still testing the MK1...

Testing out Stovepipe's New Mk1 Suburbans - being pulled by an Ivatt 2MT on the Kemp Town to Brighton Service.

I definitely agree what you are saying Parker. Signalling London and Brighton is definitely not what I thought it was going to be. It's a nightmare. The hardest part is that I only have photos and crude signal box diagrams to go off and that really makes it difficult to get everything...

Agreed. If you are intending to create an accurate route then DEM is the way to go. I was absolutely shooting in the dark before Borderreiver appeared and DEMed the LBSCR Region for me. Although progress has been slow, the accuracy of the entire thing is like night and day compared to before...

I understand. If it's possible do you think you could keep the section for Bournemouth intact even if you don't intend to model it? Having such an integral station already DEMed in game would be enormously helpful to me once I make it west after I finish the Central and Eastern Sections of the...

It probably fell by the wayside as a lot of great early Trainz routes did. UK Sussex Lines, The Withered Arm, Paddington to Birmingham Snow Hill, all of them great routes but unfortunately victims to the lack of detailed assets and accurate modeling tools that plagued Trainz back then. I'm not...

I've looked into them but the problem is that the majority of the signal bracket gantries involved do not exist in Trainz currently and the LSWR ones certainly wouldn't have been present on the Ex-LBSCR Network (if there were any left in useage). Regardless, it seems that most of the Main Line...

I definitely can sympathize with the latter half of your statement Parker. The SR Mainline - specifically the Ex-LSWR Portion - is filled with tight corners and hard to model spots. It becomes evident upon modeling areas like Friary, Fratton, or Portsmouth that they were designed with small...

This... This is a wealth of information! I was just starting to delve into the 1950 Electrification Scheme but I had no idea where to start! Thank you Stovepipe! I'll take a look at these and download the VSR Signals and return with my findings! This should be a good start for sure!! :D

After taking a good look Paul, I think that might be exactly what is needed. I've thought about approaching Chrisaw about maybe commissioning some of these, but there are some really odd ones that might not translate well to Trainz. Those Aspect/Semaphore Hybrids are definitely one of them. I...

I'm really glad to hear that Zec! I just picked up the Platinum Edition of Trainz 22 and I couldn't be happier with the Mk1s and the Tornado that came with them! I work a lot with Barney Brass these days and I can say I really like the new UK Content you have been coming out with. The B4 Bogie...

Hello Everyone, It's my first time posting in the General Thread but I wasn't exactly sure where this topic would fit in. For those who don't frequent the UK Trainz threads, I'm currently working on modelling the entire Southern Region of British Railways in three separate routes that will...

Looking great Parker! That signal gantry sure is something - as expected of our signal extraordinaire Chrisaw! The rate at which you are laying track is incredible too! I'm extremely excited to see the progress you've accomplished - keep up the good work, friend! A little something from my own...

Oh those are already WELL on their way. It's impossible to stop them at this point.:ROFLMAO: Although if you find yourself needing a new SDJR 7F... You know where to find me. ;)

Parker, if I can take on the insane idea of modelling the entire Southern Region of BR, NOTHING is impossible. I'll be cheering you on the entire time and let me know if you need any help with the project at all. I'm extremely excited to see this take form. I have no doubt that it is going to...
