Maybe he took the CD and went into a time machine and went back to a week ago to complete all activities OR he did it AT the speed of light, not near!

I've got a few more done to add to those on the CD. I'll upload them shortly. Try to work through the shifts in order - that's the way they were intended.

Activities on the way include:
Bilsthorpe-Grafham MGR
Lincoln-Spalding pick-up goods
Yarwell-Carlton loops ballast
Worksop-Sleaford summer special (Jolly Fisherman to Skegness)
Sleaford- Worksop summer special (Skegness to Manchester)
A couple of specials to/from Kings Cross
ECML closure - all trains diverted via Lincoln.

I know that Alan and Tim are also working on new activities so you should be busy for a while.

P.S. If anyone else is planning to write activities, feel free to use the paths and services on the CD - this should make life a bit easier for you.

May I add, if you do reuse a consist,service or path, plesae don't edit it! "use as template" instead if you want to change something. Thanks.

I've uploaded 6 so far - 2 freight and 4 passenger. I've got another 4 finished but they'll have to wait until next weekend to be uploaded.

Hope you like them.

Martin, You have used the Name ME_xxx is this standard to the route? If so i will change mine for compatability.

Hi,

We decided when we did the CD activities that ALL new consists and activities would start with ME_ its basically a naming convention so everyone who has mideast and wants to ditch any consists especially just needs to spot those with ME_ prefix.

Just makes life easier for the operators.

I've released my gner hst express to london (welwyn) activity for mideastuk, what do you think of it.

Splendid !
Great fun whizzing along at high speed.
The timings are far too easy, though, and for some reason the activity ends when the stop at Stevenage is completed. I thought I was going to Welwyn GC ?
I was able to change the timetable by using 120 performance up to Newark, 100 to Grantham and the 200 for the rest !
Was still able to get to Stevenage well before schedule, though. Probably because I can't get into edit the timing of the traffic that I should meet at St. Neots because AE crashes if I try to do this with any MidEast services.
