It isn't possible to merge north london line (Willesden Mail Depot comes with the original North London Route :) ) with ECML mainly because of the two routes having a different route point of origin unfortunately, basically this means that the routes starting point is in a different place - so if i were to merge these routes Stevenage would be around the Swanley area on the North London route. (As goblin is an extension of North London Line - it would be assumed that it also has the "Swanley" route point of origin)

The only thing I can suggest is a two parted scenario (one up to the ECML Connection and then a second scenario from that point on the ECML )
Something goes here??

Thanks, shame about that.

Is that why when I look at the MML it has a section of track miles away from St Pancras not connected to anything else?

The MML was built off London to Faversham so its possible that a bit of track was missed I guess when the faversham track was removed ?

Can you merge it with the GEML? Or does it have the same problem as the ECML?

Same problem but different location (GEML = Colchester, ECML = Stevenage - I think it is there at least), unfortunate that is like that but that's how they were set up unfortunately.

ECML origin is at Sandy but the GEML is spot on.

Its a shame you can't go into the brains of the route and change the long and lat coordinates for the start point. You'd think that it was somewhere.....

It is contained ineveey single object location, they aren't set by relative coordinates, they are set by real world coordinates, so they'd all need changing by the exact same amount for every single item. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

I see what you mean :o


Probably be better off building the route from scratch!

It is possible, although South London Network is set in 2012 though - compared to goblin which is 2016 :) )
