Title
North Wales Coast Project X
Notes
A return to Project X definitely keeps controllers on their toes. Join tomorrow 6/4/20 and come and man one of the many control stations.

Accepting connections from 6.25pm.

Project X timetable is designed to offer a challenge, given a normal timetable for NWC is about 120 trains in a day, this timetable has in excess of 500 and utilises every entry and exit location on the simulation.

Without absolute block it is possible to run this in single player mode but it is hard work, for a multi player game with absolute block then three players is minimum but that can be hard going.

Some Notes when playing

- Some trains terminate at Rhyl so if they have a next working check otherwise they end up on platform 2
- There are three freight areas, Holyhead, Glan Conwy and Holywell and each area has a regular service with trains coming from and going to various places around those areas

All freight services are designed to run as and when a path permits so they all have d in their departure times.

0Sxx - Are shunt moves, and could be light engines or even shunting wagons in / out/ around a siding, loop or headshunt, be careful as you wont know how long they are going to be. Delay their shunt could cause problems down the line, most shunts have been RULED to work during a perfect scenario.

1X13 (odd numbers) - These trains stop to set down only and can run early, it can lead to issues at Holyhead if too early so its up to the signalman to regulate the train to ensure it does not conflict with others.

Blaenau Ffestiniog - There is an entry point in the loop here to allow this Timetable to work, under sane operations this entry point would not exist. Train 5L01 upon starting this timetable will enter into the loop

North Llanrwst - Some trains terminate here, remember to put those trains into the UP platform using the call on arrow. This is a local move which does happen here so it was decided to emulate it.

6X60 - This runs round at Rhyl and then propels into the CE sidings. It is advisable to Run round on the Down Main to allow any passenger trains to go around through the platform line. Delays to this will impact the Holywell Freights.

Holywell Up Goods - Trains booked to stop here for regulation may require the whole length of the up goods.

Holywell Down Goods - Some trains shunting from the oil need to utilise the full length of the down goods, if you dont provide enough space then the engine will detach whilst the back of the train is hanging over the points.
