Dual Speed Limits?

[ShortFuse]

Is it possible to have more that one speed limit for the same track? For example one speed limit for Passenger trains and another for freight? Thanks.

Hi

I'm not aware of this being possible with the AI trains but it can be done with the SCS2006 rule. Within this rule are a number of commands some of which allow each train to have its maximum speed set. An express can have its maximum speed set to 100 mph for example while a freight train on the same track can be set to a max of 40 mph. They won't exceed their max speed irrespective of any speedboards on the line. A train can also have its maximum speed varied as it travels along the line.

The rule has a very steep learning curve but I have found the time spent learning it very worthwhile. It's on the DLS if you want to have a look at it but make sure you download the manual as well.

Regards

I have not used these myself, but try a Content Manager search for "VSB" (Variable Speed Board) and "Driver Speed Rule" - various authors and countries. Some are built in and some on the DLS.

I use this invisible sign on my route, you can set up to 3 speeds for priorite's 1,2,3 and also set a default speed.
I use

3 for highspeed passenger
2 for freight
1 for local
