Will the line include the whole of the Bedford - Bletchley/St Pancras line?

not sure yet, I'm think that it going to end up like that eventually.

Attention

Last night (5/08) Route editor went AWOL, so I've lost all tracks and building etc north of and including bedford. The wireframe markings are still there, but no track, and RE won't let me rebuild onto the effected tile (i think) from the other tiles, so I'm starting again. However the good news is, new route will be from at least Luton in the South to Kettering in the north. I'll have to check to see how far the DEM data files I've got stretch too first.

Chris.

Looking very realistic Chris!
Sometimes up Bedford way.

Hi

Are you using DEM? Might be something to consider if not as you are starting again. And also, back up your route (the essential files anyway) every 20 minutes and every day on to a CD.

I'm using DEm so starting again isn't so much of a head ache. Anyway I'm gonna have a good crack at it today. The route will be retitled MML, and I've got all the tiles from London up to Kettering.

Brilliant Chris!
Hope it all goes well.

Best of luck Chris. With your Mildland Line to Kettering, John's Ivanhoe bit from Leicester to Loughborough and my North Midland Main Line [Nottingham - Derby - Sheffield] it looks like we'll be enjoying most of the MML!

Marvellous. A place to run some peaks...

Had a good crack at the route today, done from just south of bedford station up to the summit of sharnebrook hill.

PS FOLLOW THE ADVICE ABOUT BACKING UP, JUST LIKE I DIDN'T!

I've do a fair chunk of route building today, the route now stretches from just north of Kettering, where the Corby branch, goes off. Down to just outside Luton, hopefully I'll make it to London by the end of the month.
