alright ill add more stuff before I extend the line but the activities will be useless and ill have to do them for a 3rd time when i releace the new version.

it is worth noting that the B&SR are a bunch of cheap skates. who dont realy care for fences or signals. but ill have a go on signals.
but i cant do car spawns as i dont know how. (nor do i realy want them if the cars are out of scale and/or modern or even all the same)

i would appreciate any detailed sugestions for the "quarry" it was only realy a stab in the dark anyways (not havin any good reference material) not to mention the first pieces of track i ever layed.

ill get started now if it makes you happy.

I've also got diagrams of Red Lion level in the quarry and Coed-y-parc works if you want them.

Any information people have on Penrhyn/Dinorwic including track plans and stuff like that would be great, im begining to have a cunning plan.....

Similar to the cunning plan that spawned Southwold....

As for diesels, ask the authours before you start carving them up.

Think evan might be letting you reskin his coaches, and Pitleys 'cunning plan' has nothing to do with the B&SR, so it has no relevence here :).

Well, wait until Evan uploads them, and then you can decide :).

Also an idea for the route: Is it possible for the mines to actually stretch underground and BE mines? I've got a brilliant idea that might make it possible, so i'll test it on my route, and if you're interested, give me a shout :)
