All, Sorry for the newbie question. Some of the trains heading towards Crewe are marked as SL for the slow line but some are marked as IL and I'm not sure which line this is? Thanks Andrew Log in to reply |

It stands for Independent Lines, which are the freight lines that avoid Crewe station.

Hello, Thanks for your help. Sorry for another newbie question, I can't see IL marked on the panel? I can only see the slow and the fast lines towards Crewe? Unless it's another code for the fast lines? Thanks Andrew Log in to reply |

" said:Pedant mode: There's a crossover from Fast to Slow at Basford Hall Jct, so you can send them on either line. Either way, Basford Hall Jct is out of your control area, so the Line code there doesn't really matter.

I may be wrong but it wouldn't surprise me if the different locations are included because the SL - IL turnouts at BHJ are low-speed and will therefore affect how long trains take to clear if there's a queue building up.
