UK Southern Region locos that you can change the Full Region destination Headcodes

tdstead

Narrow minded Tram Person
I'm talking the 6 disk system used by this region ...

The only ones I Know of is Skipper1945's West Country and Battle of Britain steam class locos witch work very well bring up the config menu a little screen comes just click on the ones you require. anyone know of any others I know Jay did dome others that you have to play with the config to change the codes as well.

Its also a shame that the only EMU's on DLS is the Nutcrackers 3-SUB and the 2-SL that you can change the destination of that are the older Letter with bars and dots above.

All of my SECR/LSWR/SR/BR(S) locos have selectable headcodes using the superscript destination feature.
 
Thankyou I am checking them out.

Ok having a problem there seems to be 2 systems the old system and the newer numbered system but after a while in trainz all the locos are trying to use the later system, some of the older locos are showing it but the Adams A12 has it in the menu system but now wont show anything and can't get it to return to the old system

Must say looking at the SREMG site they had quite a complex system

What great looking locos

Thanks

Hi again
Found the locos from Darlington Works C2x, E5, E6, I1 Had trouble with something Missing for the N15x but have written to him all in atleast a couple different liveries

These ones are changeable with the disks marked as Load when you first load them there will be only 2 disks listed but by hitting the add button you can add any of the other disks to the positions you require

Plain, Cross, and add Double Black Horz lines, Black Spot, Green Spot, Double Black diamonds

Just done this just to show you all the disks

A quick correction cause one disk in wrong position
Only Plain and cross disks are used in middle spots
double line is only used middle bottom by its self for Inspection trains at Mitcham before 1910
All other disks are used in the 3 normal positions in combinations check the southern electric group for details
Green and black spot don't seem to be used also after 1910 instead they started using the middle positions and less disks
double diamonds after 1910 seem to be used for some other railways sharing lines after 1910 looking down bottom of page for a while.

All I can say the most confusing and complex system I have seen except for the lights on the LT early trains as well.

Hope this helps

GDay Tom,

I live way across the Pond from you, so I have never seen or knew to much about these type of Locomotives, I have some Routes I think have or should have these running on them......

Thank you for sharing about the Disk System Scheme,,,,:cool:

What if any Lighting appliances did these Locomotives have? If so, what did these use for Night Runs for lighting to see where they are going? :o

Or did they not even run at Night.........Could you expand a little on that....:confused:

Thank you Sir :wave:


@Edh6 & Tom thank you for the help and links..........What an amazing story these Fine Loco's had........:D
