I suspect this AI panto issue is script related. I recall when BML was released and the 377 included with that route when in AI use would lose it's front lights when stationary. A fix in the form of an amended script was posted on here (by Dave Dewhurst IIRC) - this also fixed the same issue with the FCC 377.

Food for thought,
Richard

Definitely Richard, I'll see if I can find that 'fix'

The PTSOL script does deal with the panto, but I took it as being more for the random sparking but I'll tinker (aka butcher) a bit and see if anything workable happens.

Thanks for posting this, but just to clarify its not finished as of yet, I just put the wip route on workshop for those to see, I am finishing off the scenery (although finding it hard to do the stations with the assets at hand - but i'll give it my best go :) - I can't give a release date on that because its all in my own time :) )
Something goes here??

Well Danny, I enjoyed that run to Bedford , made it on time too! Look forward to its completion. Just out of interest, at which point does one change over to DC/AC or vice versa?

Well done Danny

I'm sorely tempted to buy now they've been joined but I have my principles regarding the 319. Sale only for me on this one.

A question for anyone who's downloaded the merged route.

What is the folder size of the uncompressed route? Just wish to know out of interest for future reference.

Usually at Farringdon
The dual voltage section stretches from Farringdon to City Thameslink, and northbound trains tend to change over at City - that way if the pantograph fails to raise, they can move the train into Smithfield sidings.

Thanks for the info, I guess it will be obvious once Danny has finished the merge. :wink:
@pjt, my folder size is 385 Mb.

Learn something new every day.
Must be very recent because the last time I got off at City Thameslink, the wires weren't there.
