Dovetail Games MML London Bedford Route

It's a good job someone is rectifying that by joining the route to SLN & L2B! So we will be expecting at some point a patch for the BedPan 319 from Rich?

Anyone had issues with the track rules?
Trying to create as real life scenarios as possible but the track rules aren't set to bi-directional.

If all/most track was set as bi-di you would end up with all sorts of bother.

Are you finding the issues are occurring when you path stuff from fast to slow and/or vice versa?. If so, because most junctions are modelled quite correctly as a series of crossovers, then just altering the portion of the path that traverses the opposite running line solves the problem, for me at least ,

Apologies if this has already been posted, but is there a way I can get the pantograph to work on the FCC 377? Is there a new version I need to download?

I know how to fix it but surely this sort of error shouldn't there?

Apart from this I think it's a great route, shame no changeover of power can be done (this was omitted in the DTG 319 until AP implemented it, so that could be why the route ends at St Pancras LL?)

Thanks
Ryan

The line isn't bi-directional in reality with the exception of the southern approaches to Bedford and in Luton station.

Don't know why they have not done change over of power on the 319 dtg can clearly do it as shown in there 395

Not familiar with this line, where does the change over occur?

Good thing the Armstrong Powerhouse 319 sound pack added AC/DC changeover functionality. It's like they're clairvoyant!

As for the 377s, the AI uses third rail shoes only as Train Simulator doesn't discriminate when it comes to electrification; third rail or overhead, it's all the same! It would be nice to have a PTSOL with a pantograph that's always up, simply to simulate AC running.

At least scenario creators can start off a player-driven 377 in AC mode using the rolling start function, by putting the pantograph up and raising the third rail shoes.

Anyone for a class 222 stand in. Theres one on the DPS site, created by Matthew Wilson

I'm trying to do a scenario and am getting platform allocations from RTT, which could be the issue!

I'll have another go and will come back if I experience issues.

Thanks.

Anybody know what the gui/hex number is for the route please?

I think the "open route folder" button in the scenario editor menu does that for you?

Check the folder properties Martin. They may be 'read only'.
