'The 10.13 Freat Great Western service has been cancelled due lack of track. Bus replacements will be provided.'

Good luck with it. If you can match the quality of the DEM with accurate gradients etc you are on a winner

Lol at the first part there.

I'm getting the ISBN of a book on the gradients for the line very soon, so we'll see how that comes along. I'm hoping to get some accurate speed limit information soon too.

to get that kind of accuracy (although i dont know how complex Hereford is) will u be using X-Tracks or UKFS?

Hereford is pretty complicated, although it is nothing compared to some routes I've seen recently. I shall be using one or the other of those, but I'm not sure exactly which one is better, and will decide on that once the marker file is completed.

buffy500, yes it is a brave thing to say. It is sort of a 'mission statement' for the route. I know many experienced route builders would not say such a thing, but I'm not your standard route builder. I have built a route before, but never released it due to a temporary lack of interest in MSTS at the time.

but I'm not your standard route builder.

No, some people have released multiple routes.

Indeed they have, and I congratulate them on doing so.

Anyway, let us get back to the topic. I'll have a screenshot of further progress by Friday hopefully.

Just realised I have put Freat Great Western instead of First

Should be a good route then if you can get hold of the gradients. However, I would retract that statement about it being 100% prototypical as that is almost impossible to achieve in MSTS.

[jjules]

Hmm, I did consider doing that actually. I suppose to make it 100% prototypical, you'd have to have a decent signalling system for one thing.

OK, I'll retract my statement. If others that responded to it could remove their comments on it, that would be most helpful.
