Re: vTOC for BVE NWM
When I get BVE running on my new graphics card (when I install it) I might join up to this!
Most VR's fall out the window, but that is a pretty good site you have going there! I hope you can keep this up and hope more will join

Long time since update but I have been busy with Scouting Activties and Real World Career on the Railway, I have sat both the Train Manager and Train Driver assessment centres in the last 3 months passing both. Currently on hold awaiting a vacancy for Train Manager and awaiting a Job Interview date for Train Driver.
Anyways back on topic....
Have had this project on hold, have tonight ditched all previous development and started designing a new website. New Ideas will be used in place of the old, some old scripting will be used but not much.

The Core Routes that will be operated by the vTOC will be Anthony Bowden's X City and Network West Midlands. We will operatine to a real world rules & regs with a fully functional virtual CIS system which will be operational within the first year.
We will be limited to the number of units of traction we have available for service, we will be operating local, regional and intercity services. We will be running to a real world operation as new as possibly in a virtual world. There will be training procedures in place and you will need to learn the route before being passed out.
We are currently recruiting for three members of staff.
