Announcing a new route in Development

[flyingv]

Cool, I only knew about AC in japan. By the way I mean an underground network like tube tunnel not just two track cut through tunnel. Is there not AC in the tube shaped tunnel called channel tunnel.

[ralph0chadkirk]

Yes there is. Also AC on the Newcastle Metro which is similar aprt from a few technical differences.

[flyingv]

Awesome, thanks mate.
UPDATE NOW lol: The underground tunnel sections will now be AC for the Desiro's.

[ReeceOovee]

Also DC between Drayton Park and Moorgate!

[thehoviskid]

Yes there is. Also AC on the Newcastle Metro which is similar apart from a few technical differences.

The metro is 1,500V DC isn't it?

[MCR247]

the only desiro that is dual voltage is the 350/1, that oovee arent making

Yes but if it is for BVE4 then you can't see outside, only the cab, and you can't tell from the cab. You can run non-DC trains on lines with DC fitted, as long as it has OHL and vice versa. Being a bit nit-picky their Marcus!

No, but the cab your driving wouldnt be a DC train

But anyway, it will all be AC now

The metro is 1,500V DC isn't it?

It's an odd system though 1.5kv DC sounds about correct.

[ReeceOovee]

If you are going to make your route like an hour long. You could always do a 4 line section where 2 are AC and 2 are DC. which do stoppers (like the london end of the WCML). But do half or a third of your route with a third rail section. with stations rather close together?

[flyingv]

Great Ideas, I will probably do that. I will do scenery and all things needed up to about 5 two tracked stations and then bring it onto 4 tracks. I also intend to add a depot at some point along the line, which I will/might do a specail diagram for like entering it, but I am not going to much into my plans, I want to get what I got so far all done up and ready, then will go on.

[eckers]

The route looks perfect, apart from the bits that other people have pointed out, but your not that far in, so we shouldn't expect it to be perfect keep up the work, and i cant wait for the end result

Been working on the 350 in the tunnel and now have this...



Edit: Also, I have managed to get the password off my Photo bucket Account so everyone can now see it All images I post on here or any other forum from now on will also be found at http://s586.photobucket.com/albums/ss30 ... for%20bve/

That is because I upload to there and use the IMG Code lol

Very nice. Now you could brighten the headlights, and perhaps do something with the windows to make it look like there are lights on inside.

[ReeceOovee]

In all honesty. All you see in the tunnel is headlights, PIDs, and the lights that are on inside the train. and you would probably on see a slight bit of the trains detail. But the headlights would have a heavy glare.

[flyingv]

K will take this into account.

It is finally done very very good (the object) for in the tunnels. I just want to say thanks to Reece Bolton who did this for me I did nothing but give files to work on. Thanks so much Reece. Here we are then:
