I agree with the portals thing. Very difficult to write a scenario with the player train coming out of Victoria as they station soon fills up with AI. I've been sending AI down to Clapham High Street portal once I've past them at Clapham Junction.

I have sent an email about the Portals to RSC as it is extremely difficult to create scenarios like said! I also suggested including some at the end of Victoria platforms and some at Clapham Junction too. I should have also mentioned that Brighton could also do with them, but they can go to the Portal to the West(?) of the station.
In their reply they said they would look into it, but for the moment hold trains in somewhere like Victoria till the Player cannot see what is happening (unless looking at the map of course) and then direct them to a portal to leave. I have found this to be a right pain at Victoria as many trains are entering and leaving constantly and so it does mess up scenarios with too much AI.

Its not just the lack of Victoria portal, its the intermediate ones. There isn't one to allow trains to go to Sutton and West Croydon or one for any of the lines leaving at Redhill or Purley.

Like you said I have lots of trains going to Clapham High Street and trains that should be going to West Croydon or Sutton are going to Norwood Junction where there is a portal
If only all problems on the big railway could simply be TAB'd past...

If you are missing portals at Redhill then you have a problem - there are 2, Guildford and Tonbridge. :o

Oh, might be thinking of a different one then. But there are multiple lines with none are there not? Or do I need to do a verify cache?

There are 2-4 missing certainly, but I'd have to list them all to find out. Pretty sure that all down to Tulse Hill (North & South) are there, then I think there are at least 2 or 3 missing.

The ones missing IIRC are the East Grinstead, Caterham & Tattenham Corner branches as well as the West Croydon line. Hopefully they've been added in the update :).

Yes it has happened, and yes the 377 sounds have 'changed'.

Well it's been updated. The most obvious thing is that the 377 has been given the track run sounds of the 455.
