Have to thank Ian Jenkins for that, he made them (I just placed them)

Well, my routes in progress, I finished the Thames and the tracklaying around Hungerford bridge, but Central London is a bicth to do! HOPEFULLY i'll have the majority of London done by Christmas, it depends how far along these lines I want to go.

Are people going to be interested in an alpha release with just the track so they can run activities? Still might be interesting to see 52 trains an hour whizzing about

I think you would have to make sure the track was correct and had no problems before people start making activities, then just add scenery and no trackwork changes, if that is possible.

Brillient route!

Where can the track be downloaded from (if it isn't a bespoke object), and how do you put it into your route?

I was thinking of 3rd rail track and put catenery at 1m height to represent 4th rail, unless some kind person can make me 4th rail tracks?

But that site doesn't work - has been down for a week or two I think.

More than a week or two. About a month.

Station 2 (don't stop, continue on the right or the route wil be a quick jouney):

After station 3 (a) (station 3 is in the first screenshots):

The end (at the moment):

As you can see, much more compression.

It's looking good..

Speaking from the land of the third rail, Might I suggest that the 4 track is cut down to two? you'll very rarely find any wide track out in the country (like yours, I reckon). Charing Cross terminus is only 6 track!
