For present day track plans you need to visit here: - http://www.pcs.planningportal.gov.uk/pcsportal/casesearch.asp
NOTE - Using anything but Internet Explorer and higher than version six and the grid references won't show.

...

Dave

Or try NOMAD, Nottingham Online Maps And Data

Same maps as Planning Portal, but a larger window. Only for Nottingham and surrounding area, same comments re IE6 and grid refs apply... also a few bits of extra info are available, such as contour lines, spot heights and so on.

Have you looked at the LBSCR footbridge by Kemplen? Possibly putting 2 of the flights of stairs side by side?

Thanks, I think you were replying to Kev, but thats just what I need! Matches very well with the LBSCR platform canopies that I'm using for the Midland Station - these being the only ones I could find with a "hipped" end rather than a "gable" end.
How's this?

 

[davidbird]

Spurred to carry on with Midland Station...

 

[escafeld]

That's a cracker!

 

[davidbird]

Thanks, Dave!

Next shots of it, it'll be in Trainz...

 

[davidbird]

Again, as they say, "Compare and contrast..."

There's still work to be done, but

Looks really good so far. You might find this is of interest for plans:

Thanks!

Have you looked at TMZ06003"s recent Bridge Girder Kits for the road bridge?

I was following the thread on UKTrainz forum, but not for a while. Do you have a DLS link, please?

 

[lewisner]

Yes its http://www.auran.com/TRS2004/DLS.php page 4 of his content.I suggest using a plate girder span then a brick wall such as Muro De Cinta on top.. Sorry that link doesn't work.If you put TMZ06003 into Uername on the DLS its page 4 of his content.

It's now available to download from the Auran DLS .

I've also used the equipment cabinet. As Part1 V1.2 is about to hit the DLS, will this also be there shortly?

 

[nexusdj]

I should be sending it up with a few other things later on today

 

[davidbird]

...Part1 V1.2 is about to hit the DLS...

Well, that was in April! Apologies for the very slow progress. I still need to rebuild Beeston station so it's interactive on both directions...

You really don't have to One thing I will do is follow your tip about the hipped canopies... Been using VFUK's ancient ones and errr... it's just not right...

That shamed me into action! All stations are now correctly set up, if used with the "Call At" command, rather than Drive To, both platforms will show as a sub-list, with a single entry in the main list.

Part 1 V1.2 is now on the DLS here. When uploaded there was a single non-DLS dependency, which is nexusdj's "small equipment cabinet". This is scenery-only and will not affect the route at all - if you want it go to nexusdj's Skodatrainz site - Downloads - Scenery.

Now on with Part 2... (don't hold your breath!)
