Hi all I'm after some new routes, something for one player. My abilities are things like Derby, Exeter, Rugby {Northampton}. I've done York, Salisbury, Westbury and Portsmouth. West Hampstead is too intensive. Any recommendations? Cheers Log in to reply |

Tyneside, Wembley Mainline. Just try a few in demo mode before buying.

Slash in post 128878 said:Hi allAny of the Leeds selection are good enough. E/W is big and busy but more than manageable with the ARS as a guide. The other two are single panels. As mentioned, take advantage of the Demo mode on the sims to have a go and see what suits. How to report an issue: www.SimSig.co.uk/Wiki/Show?page=usertrack:reportanissue Log in to reply |

You may also find this page of the Wiki useful https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Wiki/Show?page=usertrack%3Aareainfo Sounds like your looking for things in the intermediate category, or maybe some of the smaller ARS sims.

Brighton, Wolverhampton and Lime Street to Runcorn (listed as Edge Hill on the list) are about the same difficulty and style as those you listed. After doing many of the same simulations as you, I decided to try some ARS sims. Enjoyed Marylebone and am now doing LTS.

I really like Pascal's (58050) 1980's timetable for West Yorkshire. It is challenging but completely manageable by one person at normal speed if you disable level crossings.

Oxted is nice - quite busy in the modern day timetables, but a compact and easy layout. Oxford, as others have already mentioned. Or, with ARS, Swindon and Didcot? Log in to reply |

Rocangus in post 130797 said:By default trains with an X headcode have ARS disabled. If I recall correctly, the default Peterborough timetable has a number of GNERstars (class 373/2 shortened Eurostars) that run as 1X?? because they only fit in platform 2, not 3, 4, or 5. Log in to reply |

Gonna give it another shot and see if I can manage the included timetable at real speed using the following presets: limited delays only, no closures and rare level crossing users, Nene calls on, ARS/TORR on.Did you run the sim at a reduced speed and/or use the pause button?
